In the timeless words of Oscar Wilde, "Life imitates art far more than art imitates life," and nowhere is this sentiment more palpable than in the grand spectacle of weddings. As we find ourselves amid the whirlwind of the wedding season, there's a collective yearning for something fresh—something that breaks away from the monotony of traditional decor and themes. The familiar sights and sounds of weddings can leave one craving inspiration beyond the ordinary. In this pursuit of uniqueness, why not turn to the world of art and cinema for a touch of sophistication and novelty? Here are five movies that will heavily inspire your wedding decor mood board as they have got their aesthetics right!
'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani'
Having seen Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani numerous times, we've all harboured a hidden desire for a lavish Udaipur wedding. While this dream may or may not realise, capturing the film's charm in your wedding decor is easier than you think. Infuse a touch of luxury by incorporating classic reds and radiant golds into your overall theme. Whether it's through lush floral arrangements, elegant table settings, or the attire of the bride and groom, these timeless hues can effortlessly elevate the entire vibe.
Pro tip: Raid the Chandni Chowk market, for you will most definitely find everything at a much cheaper rate here.
'27 Dresses'
In the film, the protagonist Jane brings her dream wedding to life against the stunning backdrop of a beach. According to us, the wedding decor, in addition to other aspects of the movie, is underrated and deserves more attention. The combination of white and yellow flowers, along with the warm tones, creates an elegant neutral palette. If you're contemplating a beach wedding or have always dreamt of one, drawing inspiration from this movie is a must.
'Zindagi Na Milegi Doobara'
Our top standout moment from the film would undoubtedly be the final scene, where Laila and Arjun exchange vows in an enchanting setting. If you're envisioning an intimate wedding, this scene offers valuable inspiration. The pastel hues add to the dreamy, outdoor set-up.
'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani'
Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani is a must-watch. The mesmerising lighting, the majestic entrance, and the stunning silhouettes—all of it serve as a wellspring of inspiration. Fun fact: the location where this scene unfolds is the very place where Siddharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani exchanged their vows. If you're picturing a grand wedding in a royal setting like Jaisalmer, this is your sign.
'Two States'
Imagine exchanging vows against the magnificent backdrop of the Mahabalipuram Shore Temple in Tamil Nadu. To us, it sounds like the perfect wedding setting. Take inspiration from the film Two States, where Alia Bhatt, donning a Banarasi lehenga effortlessly channels the essence of a South Indian bride. If you're leaning towards a more traditional wedding, this scene is all the inspiration you need.
