Ya going to Pakistan is quite expensive these days. On the plus side though if you do plan on going you can get a lot of additional items for a good price from there (jahez clothes, jewelry, mehndi decor etc). I have been living in Canada for 17 years so I’m not too familiar with the places in Pakistan and am not a fan of shopping in the crowded and hot bazaars lol. $500 for a bridal sounds like an amazing deal! You should definitely find out where she got it from and try to get other reviews from there. I’ll be happy to share the pics of my bridal after we come back from our honeymoon in January
