2011 Brides

Re: 2011 Brides

I have around 2 months. My bridals have been ordered but I dont have them yet. I have all my other jora's and accesories...We have venues, except for the mehndi. The biggest stress factor is we have no invitations, my mom n sis dont know what theyre wearing, my dad needs to renew his passport & we have yet to book our tix!!! all that and my fluctuating weight and stressful job!!! eeeek

Re: 2011 Brides

You are sick of school... and I'm sick of work!!!! Is it just me or do you not even feel like you have a wedding coming up sometimes? Because that is how I feel.

And yes... it seemed so far away....and its crazy how close its getting! eeeeeekkkkkkkkk

Aweee I feel like I can relate with you on ALOT of things. My bridals have been ordered... just dont have them. Like you - I have all of my other jora's and matching accessories.... have venues ...picked the place for catering..havnt finalized menu. Havn't finalized brunch menu. Havn't ordered the cake. Havn't tasted cake. We ordered invitations and then had to get them redone because they did not come out the way we wanted them too! They have not come in yet... NO ONE IN MY FAMILY knows what they are wearing. But the color has been chosen: Purple. haha. On the upside - all of my relatives and friends have already gotten their clothes and figuring out what they are wearing to all the events. Just not my own family members.

My job is soooo stressful too. I usually have really good skin and now I am getting the occasional pimple! noooooo. I am trying to eat healthier and am going to the gym regularly. Something I never do because I want to GAIN weight. Except problem is that after measurements were given, I DID GAIN WEIGHT. And my bridals are near completed. So I need to go back to my original measurements. I'm not used to eating healthy OR going to the gym... this is sooooooo strange for me! :( I am too thin....

Re: 2011 Brides

on the upside- everyone check out this months bridal contestants on gupshup. I am one of them! hehe. I mixed in real elements from my wedding with dream aspects. I hope you all enjoy the choices I made for each event......

Re: 2011 Brides

I completely understand where ur coming from. My wedding is in about 2 and a half months (June 10th will be nikkah, june 15th mehndi, 17th baraat, and 18th waalima to be exact) but the only big detail out of the way is basically the hall and photographer. But the photographer was picked without even looking at his profile so idk wht I have been tangled up in. Nothing is done! I am completely freaking out and I can not do much.... My mom keeps going out of town. Nobody listens to me. Cards arent even ordered yet. No MUA either. No baraat or waalima outfit either.. no where near finalizing the small details.
ARGHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh have so much too do. Plus I am dying in school. Basically can not even focus or go to sleep!!

My dress is non existent! lol and school is suffering big time because all of this chaos

my weight is gone over the roof due to stressful eating. I am constantly shoving any piece of junk food down my throat to keep me calm.. So on my wedding day, I will look like a baby elephant!!

Re: 2011 Brides

Yes, I am feeling that too. I don't feel like getting married and the more I do for this wedding the more I wish it wasn't mine. I want to enjoy the day, I want to be the person who sees all these little details and enjoys the day, not the one who sits on the stage and smiles!
I've never had pimples since I was 15ish and now out of no where, they're popping up on my skin! I am stressed, can't for this to me over.

Re: 2011 Brides

it's funny because we sound like we're pregnant in our 9th month lol

Re: 2011 Brides

hehehe I can so understand ur ladies, my wedding is in mid july and I am also loosing my mind. The only thing done so far is the halls being booked. I have not even ordered my dress... and geez but I am plannin to wrap most of the stuff in april n may, not keeping any stuff for june so I can relaxxxxxxxx and forget abt this stressful time.

I think u guys shud plan in such way tht u get atleast fifteen days off relaxing at home. Try to get everything done now. specially the things tht require ur attention like making clothes n gettn them stitched.

Re: 2011 Brides

How many of you chose ur own wedding outfits? and if you did pick your own out, did the MIL or SIL have issues with that?

Re: 2011 Brides

I chose mine and no one has seen it yet because it's not even here. My in-laws were not involved with the dress process. Us girls are never happy :P
I see girls here complaining about their MIL's and in-laws for their involvement in their wedding and ruining things, and here's me whose always complaining that her in-laws don't care about her wedding and don't help
lol

Re: 2011 Brides

‘’

100% AGREE WITH YOU!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I knowwwww LOL :rotfl:

I am trying to wrap things up so that I can spend atleast a month at home before the wedding… unfortunately I think that month will be spent planning and organizing for the wedding tho! :hinna:

I designed both of my outfits and am working with a wonderfully kind designer who is making my visions come to life…

And yes… there was some drama over outfits. But to me… at the end of the day.. it is just outfits… so I did not understand the point of the drama.

Aweeeee :hugz: i am sure they are doing whatever they can on their end for the walima!

Re: 2011 Brides

i picked out my own wedding outfit and my inlaws did not even see it and still dont know what have i ordered! but they have no problem at all instead they are very excited about it :)) but they will pick the rest of my outfits with me otherwise there wont be anything left to do for them.

Re: 2011 Brides

congratulations to all the brides to be :D

I was a Sept'10 bride...and when I look back I can't even imagine that almost seven months have already passed ! :) how time flies ;)

Re: 2011 Brides

and you know what no matter how much planning and organising you keep do ahead of time...even at the last moment you are rushing off to the bazaar to get something you had missed ;)

aah good times :D stressful but they pass so quickly and then you are like kahan gaya ye sara time

enjoy this to the fullest ladies :)

Re: 2011 Brides

My family has decided to pick up their pace now... panic is settling in that there is 3 months to go!

Re: 2011 Brides

8 days to mehndi and 10 to shadi inshallah! Very excited now, but so tired am scared not going to look fresh. On the upside, leaving for Lahore early tomorrow iA...still at work today haha!

Can so relate to others who said feels too 'normal' to be at work/school, and yet when home it gets so mental. Am sure we're all going to look back at this time and smile :)

Re: 2011 Brides

^ eeeee im excited for ya! hope things go realllly well! :)
I was asking bout the bridal clothes, because I chose mine and am getting them made...my MIL didnt seem to have issues but I dont understand why my SIL has em! I mean, shes been married for a decade now, so obviously things have changed. grrr...I just know that after the wedding, w/e few days Ill be there will be spent in silent struggle. LOL wear the kapray I got you, not the ones you got!

Re: 2011 Brides

it was great to read everyone's comments here!!inshAllah iwill be getting married in june and iam already super scared...eventhough it is a pure love marriage case but well still nerves have started to tingle now lol...time is flying!!!good luck to all of u:)

Re: 2011 Brides

Oh congrats! I am also getting married in June in Karachi. What are your dates? Mine are 18th, 19th, and 22nd of June..

Re: 2011 Brides

I want model type makeup for walima, who do you guys think would be better for this??? i would prefer a female artist as my family is not comfortable with male MUA. No to Bina khan!

How good is Allenora Walima makeup? anyone has pictures?

Plz help guys!!!

here are a couple pics of type of makeup I am hoping for. Who can do this in Karachi???


There were pics of another couple where I loved the girl’s makeup (omar Chishti and Mahwish Irfan) but I cant find them now.
