Re: "If I could do it again..."

Personally, I think the only thing worth spending a lot of money on is a good photographer...thats it.

Re: "If I could do it again..."

I would invite less than 50 guests and have the wedding on the beach.

Re: "If I could do it again..."

^ That.

Or elope and get married in Vegas.

Re: "If I could do it again..."

haha seriously?

so you guys are saying all the new brides should size their weddings wayyyyyyy down? any solid reasons why??

Re: "If I could do it again..."

Pictures and video are all you have left so spend on those things...dont worry about the taste of the palak paneer...some people will complain even if you serve in gold plates.

Oh yeah!

Even better!

Yes, there is a really good reason why.

Most people after the wedding is over sit there, look at all their efforts and still hear people whine. Half the things you do are to make your event great not only for yourself but also for your guests. You want this experience to be memorable for them but in reality...it all blends in with the rest of the high price tag weddings we see around us.

Right after my wedding, I realized how much I could have used that money. I was sooooo strapped when I was married and it would have made all the difference if I had that money instead of the caterers or the banquet hall or the florist or the stage lady or the other vendors.

Dont invite 350 people. Dont rent an oversized banquet hall. Dont spend money on gourmet food. Dont hire flame throwers. Dont buy $50 centerpieces.

All of us want a grand affair and we get so excited about these things but if you want to be different and really make an impression with your wedding...this is the way to do it. Go simple, small, classy and make some amazing pictures to pass down to your future generations. You will not regret it, guaranteed. This is not even about religion or fuzool kharchi...nope. Its more to do with what you end up caring about when the wedding is over. You barely even remember what happened in the 7 or 8 parties you throw...its just you and him.
