As long as you avoid the name brands and hook up with a budding graduate, you should be able to get something fairly nice.

Any budding graduate that you can get me in touch with???

Have you heard of Urban Design Concepts? I haven’t bought anything off of them but I know a lot of people who have and have had very good experiences. They have a group on FB and a fully functional website…If I were in put in your spot, that is, I were to buy myself a bridal lehnga and flying over to Pakistan/Dubai wasn’t an option, I’d probably speak to the the UDC lady. So yeah, do give her a ring.

Also, what you can do is have your in-laws buy you a bridal lehnga if anyone of them is going to Pakistan or, perhaps, have a cousin/friend get you something you like and FedEx the dress over to you?

I am going to check out the UDC website! Thank you so much for the suggestion! This is exactly the type of response i’m looking for. I need help with my research guys! Anyone that has heard good things about a particular website, store, auntie…whatever etc. LET ME KNOW!

My inlaws are not going to Pakistan… that is not an option… im kinda in the same position for my walima dress too now that I think about it

my cousins in pakistan are on the younger side and I do not really trust my aunties in getting me something that I like… so far nothing that I have gotten made from them over there has EVER come in my size! I think it’s because they are more conservative and no matter how much i tell them that i want a bit of a bigger neckline (so i can atleast put the shirt over my head!) or make it a bit tighter… its always like 10 sizes too large. I’m not even exaggerating. And my mom has to fix it everytime… so yea… not really trustworthy with such a big task like this.

@kahtifah

there is a lady who can do your wedding shopping for you in Pakistan. I’m not sure what her fees are, but I can get her contact info for you. An acquaintance of mine is good family friends with her and her wedding and walima outfits were gorgeous. Would you be interested?

Yes I am interested! Could you please get me her contact information?! I would really appreciate it! Thank you so much!

I bought my Valima lengha from Goal by Fozia Hammad and it was just a tad over that amount, but I did reduce some work on it to get it in that price range. …however they forgot they were suppose to and made it the way it was and didn’t charge me extra!

You can always try them and Karma is also good for budget-conscious brides. When I went to Kamiar Rokni, he said his bridals begin at 2.5 lakh but did say that included a full front heavy shirt, some amount of borders on the duppatta (i forgot what exactly), and kamkhaab fabric either for lengha or shirt your choice, but said it’s almost always preferable on the bottom.

Did you go there yourself or talk to these designers over the phone??? I am skeptical of just ordering something over the phone… i have talked to some people and have heard horror stories of people sending over their money but not getting what they want or even worse.. not getting anything at all …
