August/September 2012 Brides!

So the June/July, 2012 brides have their own thread, where them August/September brides at?! :wink:

I’m in August insha Allah. And it hasn’t hit me yet. I feel like I should be shedding some tears, because these are the last two months I get to spend at home with my parents and sister, BUT, I just keep blocking the thoughts. I just hope I don’t explode at the Rukhsati! haha.

So how are you girls feeling? Excited, nervous, happy, stressed? I’m feeling ALL of that! But Alhumdulillah :slight_smile: Also, how much more prep is left girls? What still needs to be booked? Any neat beauty routines that can be shared?

Re: August/September 2012 Brides!

I still have my Mehndi photographer left to book, everyone's so busy :( If anyone knows a photographer for around $300-400 in the GTA, please give me their contact - please and thank you :) Other than that, everything else is booked, but the details still need to be done - still need to distribute the cards, start making the favours, order catering for the mayoun, get an appointment for wedding mani/pedi, and all that little annoying, yet important stuff..

Re: August/September 2012 Brides!

Re: August/September 2012 Brides!

I'm september bride too inshALlah .. im soo excited about starting my life with my habibi and im also super nervous but excited about seeing
the final results of my shaadi and walima dresses (both which i am choosing/designing myself , thankGod) . I think as august /september brides we all need to realise as our weddings are soon after Ramadan ends we realy need to make sure we dont over -eat at iftars .. i know i cannot afford ANY increase in my measurements .

I remember whinging about how much time i had till the wedding now i realise there is only approx 3 MONTHS TO GO AHHHHHHHHH inshallah it all goes smooth and beautifully . amen!
