When dressing up for a day wedding, it’s best to keep the makeup light and the colour palette subtle. Try this frosted pink eyeshadow look with a double liner with a black and silver glitter eyeliner. It will give a funky touch.
Try Silver Eyeshadow

Since lavender is a light pastel variant of purple, you could go for strong metallic eyeshadow makeup, with this silver glitter eyeshadow paired with matte wine. This two-tone eyeshadow perfectly balances your outfit and makeup.
Try this Unicorn Inspired Purple Eyeshadow
For an evening wedding
For those who like all things trendy, try this subdued unicorn eye makeup. It uses the trio lilac purple eyeshadow, pink eyeshadow, and gold glitter eyeshadow pigment, with a barely-there liner.
If You Are Wearing _Light Blue
Try Cobalt Blue Eyeshadow
Eyeshadow makeup for an evening wedding
Offset the delicate blue of your lehenga or saree with this sultry deep cobalt blue smokey eye look with a peach gradient.
Try Teal Green Eyeshadow

In case you don’t want to wear the exact same colour as your lehenga or saree, but don’t want to wear a contrasting colour either, this deep teal green eyeshadow with gold highlights is from the same cool, colour palette. We loved the touch of aqua blue in the inner corners to brighten the overall look.

Brides with a delicate taste would love this soft lilac purple eyeshadow makeup. It comes straight out of the pastel colour palette and adds just the right amount of colour to your overall look.
If You Are Wearing _Orange
Try a Matte Nude Eyeshadow
Eyeshadow makeup for a day wedding
Day weddings usually call for light makeup, especially when you’re wearing strong colours like orange. Try this barely-there nude smokey eye to emphasise the shape of your eye. Complete the look with a nude lipstick and a mild highlighter.
Try a Mauve & Terracotta Brown Eyeshadow Combo
For an evening wedding

If nude is not your style and you prefer a bit of colour on your face, try this terracotta and mauve eyeshadow gradient, paired with the shimmery nude colour mentioned before. Somewhere between an orange and brown, terracotta, along with mauve, both fall in the same earthy palette. This two-tone eyeshadow makeup will emphasise the overall look, without overpowering the outfit.
Try a Nude Glitter Eyeshadow
For an evening wedding
Light makeup is what you need to wear when sporting a strong colour like orange. A nude eyeshadow with a shimmer dust swept over the inner lid is the best way to balance an orange lehenga or sharara, without dimming the glam quotient. Finish with glossy lips for an evening no makeup makeup look.
If You Are Wearing _Dull Pink
Try Purple Eyeshadow
Eyeshadow makeup for an evening wedding
While a dull pink lehenga looks fabulous during the day, wearing it for even a late afternoon function could dim your overall look. If you’re the edgy bride who’d like to heighten the drama, try this smokey eye look with an intense purple eyeshadow.
Try Aqua Blue Eyeshadow
For a day wedding
Quirky brides should try this peek-a-boo eye makeup that combines a catty eyeliner style with aqua blue eyeshadow highlights in the lower lash line.
Try Mauve Brown Eyeshadow
For an evening wedding

Should you choose to wear a mint saree or lehenga for an evening function, we recommend you wear makeup that brightens your overall look – like this striking smokey eye makeup using a golden glitter eyeshadow.
Try a Golden Glitter Double Liner
For a day wedding
If you’d like to go heavy on the lipstick, try this double liner eye look in gold glitter eyeliner and charcoal over a light golden eyeshadow, to even out the whole makeup.

We loved the neat lines of this look! Pair this nude and matte gold eyeshadow with lipsticks in coral or light pinks for a pretty pastel wedding look.
If You Are Wearing _White
Try Peacock Green Eyeshadow
Eyeshadow makeup for an evening wedding
With white, you can afford to play a little with colour – like this peacock inspired multi-colour eye makeup for the evening. Mind you, this only works if you have hints of blue, purple or green in the embroidery. If not, try 3-tone look with colours matching the thread work of your white lehenga.
