Getting married abroad..

**Hi all,

I am a new member and have been following some post regarding wedding discussions. And I must confess, they’re really helpful and makes me glad that I’m not the only one “on those situations..” lol.

Moving on, I am in UK currently and getting married in (Sialkot) pakistan later on this year. OMG, It’s like being totally clueless what happening there apart from if you follow the magazine and google for your source. But still! Seeing something is different within your eyes than from third eyes like camera, google etc. What makes me crazy is, after googling thousand searches, I can’t find a single site or picture on wedding venues or designer bourtiques. I found some on wedding event planners but nothing!

I am just thankful that I am making a trip to pakistan before the actual for shopping. But still I need to have some idea as time is very limited!

I have choosen some colours for my bridal lengha but still unsure about mehendi. I love my in laws as they’re letting me choose walima dress! lol, What more girl wants other than being secured in knowing that you love what you’re going to wear on reception day!

And what is this with long kameez fashion over lengha? It just totally does not go with it! I have attended enough bridal exibition and catwalks to know it does not really suit.

For Mehndi, I am thinking anarkali…

Who is sialkotian here? After reading from other thread, they mentioned some wedding venues but I can’t seem to find any one picture in google! Come one people! you want business, you market your venues online especially customers who are broad!

And also the stage? who does the stage? The venue ones or do you have to hire someone?

And I am also thinking, whether should I carry a bouquet with me on baraat when I walk down the aisle. It is certainly not that much in but i think it looks nice! or should I carry both bouquet and a clutch.. Or would it be too much?

My fiance thinks I’ve gone mad! He says I am also getting, why am I not that much stressed as you. All I could say, you’re not a girl! trust me it’s different with girls!.. lol

Ok.. enough ranting!

What about you guys..

Re: Getting married abroad..

I think it's good you're going to Pakistan. It'll give you a better chance to look into venues etc. But others here might be able to help you out better on that.

As for long kameezes over lehengas, yeah they're in. But I've never been the one to follow trends just for the sake of it. And I personally am with you on this - I don't understand long shirts over lehengas. Some do look good, yes, but I still can't wrap my head around that idea. Which is why I'm going for the old school style - do what you're comfortable and happy in! Only thing with short shirts is, make sure they are a nice fit, they look nicer that way.

Hmmm as for holding flowers - if you do that, don't hold a clutch. Holding both is too crowded. And choose flowers that compliment your clothes colours well.

Don't worry, everything will fall in it's place. I've started to stress over the littlest of things too now, and it really is no good lol.

Yeah! Short kameez look great! Where are you getting married? Have you decided your colours?

About venues, we do have couple options but i want the best. There is no pictures online so i can't do anything about it! I've got family in pk, they keep me updated but like i said they have different perceptions.
