How to Choose a Groom Sehra
Colour, style, budget and timing: a simple guide to picking the dulha sehra for your wedding day.
The sehra is the veil of hanging strings a groom (dulha) wears over his turban or safa on the wedding day. It is in almost every baraat and wedding photo, so it is worth choosing with a little care. This guide walks through what to look at, using real designs from the Handy House sehra collection.
Right now we have 54 groom sehra designs available, priced from ₹170 to ₹800. Each design is shown with its own photos and price.
1. Start with the colour of your turban and sherwani
The easiest way to choose a sehra for men is to match it to the outfit. A sehra that picks up one colour of the turban (safa) or sherwani looks planned; one that fights with it stands out in every photo. Keep a photo of your outfit and turban handy when you look at designs.
- Red or maroon outfit: designs with red in them, for example Wedding Sehra | Design - 246 (₹180), Fancy Sehra | Design - 247 (₹180), Handcrafted Sehra | Design - 248 (₹220).
- Gold, cream or ivory outfit: designs with gold work, for example Groom Sehra | Design - 245 (₹449), Wedding Sehra | Design - 246 (₹180), Fancy Sehra | Design - 247 (₹180).
- Light, classic look: designs with cream, white or pearl-style strings, for example Multicolor Sehra | Design - 166 (₹460), Groom Sehra | Design - 245 (₹449), Wedding Sehra | Design - 246 (₹180).
- Colourful outfit: multicolour designs, for example Multicolor Sehra | Design - 166 (₹460), Multicolor Sehra | Design - 208 (₹500), Multicolor Sehra | Design - 222 (₹500).
2. Look closely at the photos: crown and strings
Most groom sehra designs have two parts: the top band or crown that sits on the turban, and the strings that hang down in front of the face. Open the product page and look at every photo: how the top is shaped, how long and how dense the strings are, and whether they are beads, pearl-style strings or a mix. Pick the one that suits your face and the style of your turban.
Our product notes also say this plainly: bead shades can look slightly different in studio light and on different screens, so if one exact colour matters to you, ask us on WhatsApp for another photo before you order.
3. Set a budget
Our available sehras currently start at ₹170, and half of them cost ₹430 or less. The full list, grouped by price, is in the Sehra Price List 2026.
4. Order early
Do not leave the sehra to the last week. Check the delivery time below, allow a few extra days for confirming the design on WhatsApp, and order so the sehra reaches you well before the wedding. If you need several pieces (for example for the family or for a shop), say so when you order.
5. Want something different? Ask for a custom design
If you have a reference photo or a colour you cannot find, Handy House can make a sehra to your design. Send the photo and your colours on WhatsApp, or read about custom and bulk work.
