Re: Creative “Bidh” distributing ideas

Small organza favor bags (also called pouches or sachet bags) would be the cheapest solution for bidh distribution whether in USA, UK or Pakistan. They come in multitude of colours, fabric (organza, net, velvet), design (polka dots, stripes, stars, glitter) and tie ribbons/drawstrings. I think many guppans living abroad found organza bags on Ebay. Those living in Pakistan can find them at any store that caters for birthday and mehndi decorations. Those are dirt cheap and you can fill them up with amazing variety of things. They also sell pre-filled pouches, so you just have to buy those and distribute them in decorated trays and baskets.

You can put the following in a favour bag:

nuts (mostly almonds cracked or uncracked and pistachios)
dried fruit (Chuhaaray, apricots and if you want figs)
mishri
chocolates
supari
toffee and sweets
marzipans

They are little metal dishes filled with paan masala alongwith packets of Assamese tea and handkerchiefs (supposed to show respect)

Re: Creative "Bidh" distributing ideas

This is going to be a strange question, and forgive me for being not with it, but who is actually meant to provide the bidh? I thought it was given from the groom's side? Do they bring it along with them on the baraat?

Can someone shed some light?

Re: Creative "Bidh" distributing ideas

After the nikah, groom's side distribute bidh. If the nikah is on the baraat day then, yes they'll bring it with them on the baraat. However, now a days even brides side give away favors. Hope this helps.

Re: Creative "Bidh" distributing ideas

Bidh are the little packets of sweets/dried fruit/nuts distributed by the groom's side after the nikah. You can put in dates (chuwaaray), saunf/supari, mishri, dried figs, pistachios, almonds/candy coated badaam, wrapped toffee, sweets, chocolates etc.

Traditionally, it is the groom's side responsibility but as DigitalDomain said, nowadays the bride's side also give away favors. It is totally up to them to do that, no pressure. :)
