Maharashtrian weddings have always had something that many other wedding aesthetics chase desperately: effortless grace. There's a quiet sacredness, a rooted beauty, and a kind of understated charm that doesn't scream for attention—it simply earns it. And yet, in the world of viral wedding décor trends and over-the-top Pinterest boards, the Maharashtrian wedding aesthetic is still wildly underrated.
That's exactly where PS Decor steps in—not to change the culture, but to elevate it. To make it feel iconic, premium, and visually unforgettable, without losing the soul of what makes it Maharashtrian in the first place.
Why Maharashtrian Weddings Deserve More Aesthetic Hype
If you've ever attended a Maharashtrian wedding, you already know the vibe is different. It isn't chaotic. It isn't unnecessarily loud. It isn't trying to be 'extra'. It's calm, warm, intimate, and deeply meaningful.
The rituals are rich with symbolism, the colour palette is naturally elegant, and the décor has this beautiful balance of tradition and simplicity. But because it doesn't follow the usual Bollywood-style wedding template, it often gets overlooked when people talk about 'aesthetic weddings'.
Which is honestly a shame, because Maharashtrian wedding décor has the potential to be breathtaking in a way that feels refined, not forced.
The Core Elements of the Maharashtrian Wedding Aesthetic
To understand why this aesthetic is so special, you have to understand what it's built on. Maharashtrian wedding decoration isn't about excess. It's about intention.
Here are the elements that truly define it:
- Sacred Simplicity – The décor supports the rituals rather than overpowering them. There's a spiritual softness to the styling, and that's what makes it feel authentic.
- Natural Florals – Fresh mogra, marigolds, roses, and greens aren't just décor—they're part of the sensory experience. The fragrance alone is a whole mood.
- Brass, Traditional Touches & Heritage Details – From brass diyas to urli bowls, banana leaves, and traditional torans, Maharashtrian weddings have details that feel timeless.
- Warm, Earthy Colours – Unlike some wedding aesthetics that rely heavily on metallics and glitter, Maharashtrian décor shines through warm tones and cultural colours.
PS Decor takes these core elements and makes them feel elevated—not by replacing them, but by refining how they're executed.
The Colour Palette: Not Loud, Just Legendary
If you want to understand the Maharashtrian wedding aesthetic, start with the colours. The palette is iconic, and when done right, it looks insanely premium.
Classic Maharashtrian wedding decor colours include:
- Marigold yellow (the true OG)
- Turmeric gold tones
- White mogra and jasmine
- Deep red (for sacred symbolism)
- Mango leaf green
- Muted antique gold
The beauty here is that these colours don't need to be loud. They just need to be layered correctly.
PS Decor's approach is to keep the palette culturally rooted, while adding a modern softness—through texture, lighting, and floral composition. So instead of harsh contrasts, you get smooth blending. Instead of cheap shine, you get quiet luxury.
Mandap Magic: Where PS Decor Turns Tradition Into a Showstopper
The mandap is the heart of any Maharashtrian wedding. It's where the rituals happen, where the emotions peak, and where your wedding photos will live forever.
And here's the truth: most mandaps are either too plain or too random.
PS Decor does mandaps differently. The goal isn't to make it 'big'. The goal is to make it iconic.
What makes a Maharashtrian mandap truly stunning?
- The structure stays traditional – A Maharashtrian wedding mandap should still feel sacred. PS Decor respects that. No unnecessary theme chaos.
- Florals are styled with intention – Instead of stuffing flowers everywhere, PS Decor uses florals strategically: framing the mandap, layering garlands, adding depth with greens, balancing symmetry and softness.
- Lighting is treated like design, not an afterthought – Warm lighting transforms everything. It makes the décor glow, it flatters skin tones in photos, and it creates that 'soft cinematic' look.
- The seating is refined – Traditional meets premium. Comfortable, elegant, and photogenic, without looking like a stage from a random event.
With PS Decor, the mandap becomes a visual statement—one that still feels rooted in culture.
The Entrance & Welcome Area: First Impressions Matter
The entrance is the first thing your guests see, and the first thing they photograph.
A Maharashtrian wedding entrance doesn't need to be flashy. But it does need to feel welcoming, festive, and well-designed.
PS Decor often uses:
- Traditional torans with florals and mango leaves
- Brass urli bowls with floating flowers
- Soft warm fairy lighting
- Rangoli corners with modern symmetry
- Subtle signage (not loud, not cringe)
It creates a welcome moment that feels premium, not predictable.
Floral Styling: The Unsung Hero of Maharashtrian Decor
Maharashtrian weddings have one major aesthetic advantage: the florals are already iconic.
Mogra and jasmine aren't just flowers—they're a whole cultural identity. They're used in hair, garlands, rituals, décor, and even as a fragrance memory.
PS Decor leans into this, but upgrades it through:
- Better floral density and layering
- Premium fresh sourcing
- Balanced colour composition
- Modern framing techniques
- Clean, symmetrical installations
The result? The décor doesn't look like 'basic flower strings'. It looks like luxury floral art.
Seating, Stages & Guest Areas – Understated Luxury Done Right
One of the most underrated parts of wedding décor is guest experience. Because what's the point of aesthetic décor if your guests are uncomfortable?
PS Decor designs guest areas with:
- Comfortable seating layouts
- Premium fabrics and textures
- Elegant table styling
- Subtle cultural elements
- Balanced lighting for photos and ambience
And yes, even the stage can look gorgeous without becoming overly dramatic.
This is what understated luxury looks like: tasteful, warm, and timeless.

The Details That Make It Iconic (And Not Just 'Traditional')
This is where PS Decor truly shines—in the details that most decorators either ignore or rush.
Some PS Decor signature touches include:
- Custom rangoli concepts designed to match the décor palette
- Dedicated sacred corners for rituals

These details are what take the wedding from 'nice' to unforgettable.
Common Mistakes People Make With Maharashtrian Wedding Decor
Let's be real—a lot of Maharashtrian wedding decoration ends up looking either too plain or too chaotic.
Here are the biggest mistakes:
- Keeping it too basic – Minimal doesn't mean empty. A mandap with no styling looks unfinished, not elegant.
- Making it too loud – Throwing random colours and shiny props ruins the calm, sacred vibe.
- Using cheap artificial flowers – This one is brutal. Maharashtrian décor depends heavily on florals. Fake flowers kill the entire aesthetic instantly.
- Ignoring lighting – Lighting can make average décor look premium—and premium décor look average if done wrong.
- Not planning for photography – If the décor doesn't work in photos, it won't feel iconic later.
PS Decor avoids these mistakes through planning, styling expertise, and premium execution.
