How are the rooms being decorated these days for a bride n groom??
My BIL is getting married in December n it will be first time in my life attending a wedding from groom’s side. And being the only Bhabhi of the house at this moment…I’m taking charge of decorating their room.
So please share if you have seen some nicely decorated rooms in past some time.
I want something decent delicate n veryyyy welcoming.But not over done type…i hope i can make some sense. Peoplel there are telling me its just decorated with roses these days …like a single bud every few inches of a wall…???
Hmm.. I don't know about each inch decorated with flowers and personally I don't think so I'll will ever do it...
When my cousin got married, his sisters had a very pretty but decent flower arrangements on their night stands(side tables) and on the main coffee table in the room. On the bed they had a very pretty bed set which had a copperish golden base and embroidory kind of work with maroon, but it wasn't overloaded with maroon so it looked pretty decent. They also had curtins matching the bed set.
So I would say buy a good bed set and have good flower arrangements on the bed sides and the coffee table. if you can get some tea candles or diyas then arrange them around the flower arrangement on the coffee table and bed sides, you can also get new curtins matching the bed set.
If the wedding is in pak, then take those Sears or JC Penny's catalogs with you for designs and get the bed set and curtains custom made pakistan. It will be a lot cheaper.
Rest it depends what kind of room your BIL has, you might have to play a little bit the furniture and stuff in the room.
These days I've noticed people don't cover everything. A few strings of roses, a few nice placed bouquets throughout the room, and some rosepetals on the bed and table will be nice. I don't know if you want anything glittery.
My mamoon went to Pak two years ago to get married and he wanted all the oldstyle stuff (walls covered in flowers and tinsel etc) and all of his siblings and even my nani made fun of him for being old fashioned :D
Sahar02....I was thinking n actually hoping for you to come in this thread ....:) as I know you got married recently....!
I know what you mean by those walls covered with flowers etc. I had that in my time ( ah, some 8 years ago) but I know that's not the type these days
His room's main (base) colour is apple green n I soooo want to give it a touch with contrasting maoon ...just don't want to over do it.
Lusi...yes wedding is in pak n they've already got some bed spreads stuff made ...(I'll have to see which colours though) but I'm definitely gonna buy those pretty candles .:)
Fist off usually first night is in a nice hotel… but in any case here is my tip…
it depends if its a love marriage or arranged … if its love marriage then just make it seem like dream come true sort of a thing..if its arranged not too romantic atmosphere…
I would want nice long white roses bunched up from top of the bed and hanging all the way to the floor going around the bed ofcourse. I simply love that. I hate that golden and silver color decoration its so corny. Uff i cant stand shadi mubarak stuff all day long bride and groom heard that word over and over i am sure they are sick and tired of it. I love balloons so nice red heart shapped balloons all over the floor if you can get them custom made. Groom and Bride’s name on it or the date. And just to spice up the love i would want a nice big picture of mine and his some where on the wall; the poster size one. You can take the engagement picture. I hate over decorated room i would want groom to look at me at night not the chamkeela stuff.
Now if its just an arranged marriage. Use some laal gulab and motiyaa in their room. You can place them on the corner tables. I would leave some sort of a nice game in their for bride and groom to play. This is the first time they are alone and together perhaps getting to know each other would be best. May be on a center table put a gaint tray and milk in it. Leave something in there so they can both find it. Its a stupid tradition in many families i dont believe in it but i would not mind using it as a game. I cant stand flowers on the bed i am sure they end up throwing it on the floor. May be small amout of flowers can be laid on the floor going towards the bed i prefer moteyaa ka flower to be used here gulab seems so out of fashion. You have to create romance here so i would only use candles no light for them nice sented candels.
cant share more until mine one is done want mine one to be original
See lussi needs to word it better… i thought he meant tiles IN tthe bedroom, someone else thought he meant tiles ABOVE the bed… learn proper english Lucy :bash:
I like the idea of motiya, pink roses instead of red - even though it will be tough to find any other color rose in Pak :D and then definitely scented candles like someone said with the flower arrangements on the side tables/dressers.
leave it… u will get it on second night of rukhsati..
until mine one is done
