Re: foriegner pakistanies brides
hmmm.. for me most of these things are just petty ones... I would say communication is the key.
So paliz654654 you are going to have a marriage ceremony in Pakistan too? I will have one and I do not have a problem with the "shy thing". I told him upfront that it will not be possible for me to look shy or unhappy at my marriage day, since it was so hard for us to get to this point and it will be a truly happy day for us. He is ok with that, although I am sure some people might complain that the bride has no "sharam" or something like that.
On the other hand I will wear a wedding outfit they picked for me and the heavy jewelery as well. I guess it is all about compromising, tolerance and most importantly communication...
I wish you guys all the best for your (future) married life!!! :-)
