So for a lot of us, our wedding schedules are pretty packed. Especially in cases when the wedding is in the morning or in the day, and then there's a Reception the same day. Now guests have the luxury of going back to their rooms and changing for the event, or just getting some rest. But as a bride, things are crazy hectic, and you'll probably have to start getting ready for the Reception right after the wedding wraps up!

So here are some quick hacks to transform your look from a Wedding to a Reception one, without wasting too much time and effort. All it requires is better planning!
Switch up the bottoms: Change into palazzos or dhoti pants

Not completely, just a bit! Keep the wedding blouse the same, but switch up the bottom and that means, switching up the heavy lehenga skirt for a sharara, cigarette or dhoti pants.
Change Up Your Blouse: Make it a crop top or predraped.

Another way to go is to keep the same lehenga skirt, and get a simpler crop top and ditch the dupatta all together. Since you went conservative with your wedding, it's best to go with a sexy blouse, bralettes (if you are bold), string noodle strap blouses and the list goes on.
Add a floral waist belt & tuck your dupatta in
Dupattas are heavy, let's admit that. So remove the one on your head and tuck it into your waistbelt.
Add something casual to your outfit: Capes & Jackets Welcome

Ditch the dupatta, and get a blouse with an attached drape or a cape or even a jacket- that works really well too! Makes the look more relaxed and evening-appropriate for the Reception!
Switch up the jewellery

- Pick a jhoomer instead of the mathapatti you were wearing.
- Take off one of the layered necklaces you wore for the wedding- wear either the choker or the long one- not both.
- A simple diamond necklace also looks awesome!
- Earrings matter too, so keep them simpler as well!
- Lose the Nath and wear some new-age cocktail rings or hair acessories!
