ya.-. i think ppl just like to believe that since indian and paki culture is so close, we can compare the too.. but it really isnt.. their clothing and kaam is very very different.. heck even their bangles are SO DIFFERENT.. and WAYYYY gorgeous than what is available in pakistan.. my mom had a friend bring some for me for my jahez, and u just dont see such different and beautiful bangles in pakistan.. im talking glass bangles, not even sterling silver or gold.. and each kara that went with the set of bangles was different.. unliike pakistan, jaha ek cheez hi milthi hai! at my wedding period, it was kundan karay and thats all u could get… jeez!
p.s) and on the side, im sick and tired of ppl harping bout oh be simple oh be simple… i hope at the end, a person can tell if they are at a mourning or a wedding! what ive seen is, if someone says they want a simple wedding, well, their cheap. gross generalization, but honestly, thats the feel i get … normal ppl have armaan and jazbaath and desires fixed to how they want their wedding day to be like, and in order to achieve that, it takes money. great if u have it.. use it.. what other day is worth more than ure wedding day.. again, not a thought common to some ppl. but if u aint got it, then dont cover it up by saying oh i want a simple wedding… and start preaching how that is how its meant to be..
in a nutshell, if you got money and the desire to want ure wedding day done a certain way with chocolate fountains and fishes made out of gold.. ALL the power to YOU!
its also ok if u dont want to spend a lot of money on the wedding cuz u aint got it, dont think its gotta be all that, or simply dont care… thats ok too.
uh oh.. i think a recent incident , actually, a whole lot of such recent incidents has caused the rant.. excuse me
and yes, i have updated this post. thats how khuwaar i am
:k: All this rant about simplicity and charity and sophistication- I can’t believe a couple gets judged by all those things ON the happiest day of their lives. So what if they are from a different culture and don’t do things the way YOU do? I know of many white/hispanic people who consider even a ‘normal & sophisticated’ Paki wedding wayy too loud and wild for them. Does that mean you stop getting married the way you want to or start having a shaadi like the goras just because they think you’re not classy enough
