The Pakistani wedding is very traditional and same is the case with its bridal dresses. Most of the Pakistani bridal dresses have heavy embroidery on them. For instance, lehnga which is the most common Pakistani bridal dress and is used by almost 80% of the Pakistani brides.

It is similar to a skirt which is worn with the blouse that is a tight fitting cloth that reaches up to the waist but you can also make variations in its size according to your liking. It is worn with a long traditional dupata which is also full of beautiful embroidery and elaborate with heavy work.

In Pakistan, red is considered as a color for bride so most of the brides prefer to have their bridal dress in pure red color or its various other shades. But now many girls like to have it in soft colors like dull gold, peach and off-white.

Sharara is another traditional yet attractive Pakistani bridal dress which is also liked by many brides. It is just like a long maxi with two legs that is filled with beautiful patterns and embroidery specially use on walima day. It is usually worn in summer weddings as it is considered light weight.

Now days, Pakistani designers have made some variations in its design in order to give it a modern look.

Fershi Jora is the most stylish Pakistani bridal dress. It is the variation in Lehnga and Angrakha style which is inspired by the western wedding dress. But our genius designers have made it perfect for that bride who doesn’t like to wear traditional wedding dress.

Fershi jora is like a long maxi with long tail on the back, spread on the floor from the back like a fish tail. Basically it is a one piece dress(long frock). But again many brides like to have that with a top or small kurti. Its dupatta is in a same pattern and cut just like all other Pakistani Bridal dresses.

Apart from the above mentioned Pakistani bridal dresses, shalwar kameez is also used by some of the brides. Almost all the Pakistani bridal dresses contain Sequins, patchwork, tiny mirrors, Zari embroidery, Zardosi, kundan and pearl beadwork on them.

The society and culture of Pakistan (Urdu: ثقافت پاکستان‎) comprises numerous diverse cultures and ethnic groups: the Punjabis, Kashmiris, Sindhis in east, Muhajirs, Makrani in the south; Baloch and Pashtun in the west; and the ancient Dardic, Wakhi, and Burusho communities in the north. These Pakistani cultures have been greatly influenced by many of the surrounding countries' cultures, such as the Turkic peoples, Persian, Arab, and other South Asian ethnic groups of the Subcontinent, Central Asia and the Middle East.

In ancient times, Pakistan was a major cultural hub. Many cultural practices and great monuments have been inherited from the time of the ancient rulers of the region. One of the greatest cultural influences was that of the Persian Empire, of which Pakistan was a part. In fact, the Pakistani satraps were at one time the richest and most productive of the massive Persian Empire. Other key influences include the Afghan Empire, Mughal Empire and later, the short-lived but influential, the British Empire.
