Re: 2011 Brides
heheh.. thnxxx!!! Yaa and having a folder on the computer is a great idea.. i just created one too.. Just incase. I have had bad experiences with my lap top getting stolen and stuff and I dont want all my secret hard work to be wasted…
Dude trust me - you are being smart about along with with having fun with it!!! By the time I get married it will be well over a year since the engagement … but since the date of my shaadi JUST got fixed … and it is now only 8 months away - all of that little “secret” planning I had done is coming in SUPER SUPER SUPER handy.
I am not going to lie girls. I am stressed. So much to do in little time… and as you all read in my other thread … i am DEVASTATED that I do not get to go to Pakistan for my shaadi shopping. Its not just about the shopping… but its about getting into that “shaadi mode” with all of my girl cousins and khaalas and luved ones. All of my relatives live in Pakistan. It would have been great to be there and spend this happy time with them and i really look to my cousins for guidance ALWAYS … and im sad that that wont happen and that we are so far away. I just pray now that they can all make it to my shaadi. It is alot to ask… since we are so far and tickets are so expensive… but I think that is the thing i care most in regards to “what I want for my shaadi/what i want my shaadi to be like” … i want all of my luved ones there :jano:
Mizsani - I started planning and starting thinking of ideas on the 2010 bride thread. lol. And I have made “folders” on my computer for all sorts of things since that time… dresses, favors, decoration, makeup , hairstyles… etc.
So I pretty much have my photographer and DJ booked - YAY … i have to send him the contract tmw inshAllah and my parents have to mail him the deposit.
oh yea girls. thats another thing. I live in another states than my parents. And since we live in a “pind” the shaadi will not even be in the town I grew up in … but rather 2 and half hours away. So planning this thing is a beast.
But my mom signed the contract with the hall today. SHUKER HAI … huge stress off my mind!!! This particular hotel just had a 20 million dollar renovation done to it and it looks gorgeous online… but obviously due to the fact I live far away .. i have not seen it myself. But my mom and sister went to see it (along with many other hotels) and they liked this one the best… i trust their judgement.
My sister saw this one hotel and literally mssged me later in the day being like “I REFUSE to let my sister get married at this place!!!” hahaa. I asked her what was so bad about it … she said that she would describe it as “Trashy Chic” … like they wanted to look high class but try to do so in a really trashy/guady way. I was like oh man. haha. But thanks to sister … that option was vetoed right away.
Big stress for me now a days is figuring out what I am going to wear to my shaadi, day after shaadi, walima, and day after walima. All the bari and jahaiz clothes? I dont even care. lol. I dont even need them or want them. But these 4 outfits I am stressing about… who do trust to have them made? Will i get exactly what I want???
Ok … thats the end of my rant for now. lol carry on girls
