When it comes to wedding planning, Etsy may not be the first place that comes to mind for desi wedding shopping, but it should be! Etsy is our go-to for fabulous & unique wedding finds. Whether it be a wedding DIY or a unique present, or something personalised – Etsy is bound to have it.
Sifting through tons & tons of Etsy pages can be quite tricky, so we’ve narrowed down our favourite picks for the perfect modern day desi couple, who want a little bit of the traditional element combined with a little bit of the modern element of wedding planning.
In this blog post, we go through various different wedding categories & events, and have sifted through the ends of Etsy to find the best products for you – trust us, there’s some incredible picks below!
One thing to keep note of is the varying delivery times, we have popped them & their prices down at the time of publishing, but these may change – so keep an eye out.

Etsy has so many different fun finds for decorating your home, your engagement party venue, & the great outdoors. Remember to always account for the extra items you might require when it comes to any DIY-decor!
