Pre-wedding shoots have been a source of joy for every couple. Everyone wants to try out something new, unique, – that speaks of their love story more than anything else.
The first thing that comes to mind is a video of beaches, picturesque destinations, forests and more- which has been trending for a while now. Since it has been done a couple of times, it is only natural to want something unique for your own pre-wedding shoot.
The entire ideology behind this shoot is to capture the couple’s essence. But it can be difficult for some who aren’t used to posing in front of the cameras- especially with their fiancé.
So, we’ve compiled a list of comfortable ideas that will work wonders in capturing your romance.

You need to put in the least amount of effort for that vintage look. A rustic colored lehenga, paired with golden jewelry, and a statement payal- is all you need to achieve this look. You can add in hair extensions, crimp your hair a bit- to elevate your ensemble.
