Amrapali isn’t your regular budget store, but trust us, every bride needs at least one gorgeous piece from here. Their collection goes from classic to vintage to tribal and sometimes totally offbeat and unique. Most of their pieces are either silver or gold-plated and a pair of basic silver jhumkas start at Rs 3,000. Neck pieces to go with your suits are priced a little higher, but it surely is worth the money.
