HELP!!! WALIMA DRESS DISASTER

Hi,

I am a novermeber bride with my walima being on beginning of november! My In -laws are being very late in buying dress. I had a perfect vision of my walima dress, how my MIL described to me on the phone and assured me 1000 times, it’s going to be the best dress ever!

Now few days ago, After my MIL came from wedding dres shopping and emailed me da pic. I’m just shocked at the design and style of the dress. it’s not how i envisioned it! :frowning:

The dress is in faroozi but with very less kaam on lengha, (imagine golden stripes) with alot space in btw and tuqoise shirt till knees with not so good design. It looks cheap, to be honest.

I tried to tell my fiance and he doesn’t have a clue about wedding dresses, told me to discuss it with his mom. I am not sure whether it’s a good idea or not. He said dress isnt finalised yet, we can still change it. So I have been sending him some pics of walima dresses n showing how the kaam is supposed to be like… and he’s getting it but he says to discuss with his mum.

I want my lengha to be heavy kaam on it!

Oh and I actually saw this dress when i went for my bridal dress shopping for baraat.

I don’t knw what to do! Am so stressed and depressed!

So guys can u please post nice walima dress pics in turqoise. any combination will do. nice n heavy.

I neeed help!

Re: HELP!!! WALIMA DRESS DISASTER

Why do want a veryyy heavy dress? Why not go for something light that you can wear afterwards, especially if it's a valima :)

Re: HELP!!! WALIMA DRESS DISASTER

i think you should talk to ur mil (if u think she would give importance to ur choice)

I think as a bride you should stand out, after all it's your big day. You don't want to look like guests who might be wearing similar clothes. Walima is just your second chance of being DULHAN from grooms side. :) plus you can make formals anytime that are in fashion.

I know but am not sure if it will look good saying I don't like your choice etc..

Re: HELP!!! WALIMA DRESS DISASTER

you are right! but i dint mean u should talk to her like this k i dont like ur choice
you can say this in a good like i like this one but what if we see few more bridal outfits i can only give u suggestions but it might not suit u as u know ur in laws n their nature more than anyone else
as was the case with my nikkah jewellery i dint like it but i wore it cz i couldnt say that i don like this one though i was with her while shopping for that :/
ur to be hubby cant help u in that? like baton baton main he can tell his mom :/

Re: HELP!!! WALIMA DRESS DISASTER

Can't you just tell her to add more kaam to the dress?

Re: HELP!!! WALIMA DRESS DISASTER

well i guess you can go for heavy jewelry...lengha with less work is not that bad.

My hubby is on with me, I told him Walima lenghas aren't that suppose to be him and for that I showed him couple good lenghas pic in turquoise and he really liked it. He said talk with his mum n discuss it. I told him, I can't do alone, I need him to do as well.

Yeah, they can add more kaam. But the design isn't that good either. It looks cheap. It's not money problem for them.

Re: HELP!!! WALIMA DRESS DISASTER

That's fab!! Mashallah- it's nice To see how open-minded and understanding they were of your needs.. I hope my hubby would do the same (though I doubt it- he'd tell me to deal with mom an sis in law myself).. Which definitely adds problems! Let us know what you pick out in the end!

Thanks rm! Indeed I feel blessed by having such nice family. At times like these we should not moan on things like these but cherish it! My MIL said herself, she had doubt about the design n not happy about it, so she cancelled it. And hunting new dress, although time limit is so short!!
