Yes, i will be having a dinner after the nikkah, however it wont be a formal event. Its just our family and close friends (from both sides). Sometimes I think that I may regret it, but then I realize that Im still having the wedding I want, and my reception is going to be very big, and we are still doing all the rasms, and having a party, it will just be condensed into one day. And this way, I can spend more money on the details as well, where as if I was having mehndi/bharat separate from my fiance, I wouldnt be able to spend as much money on all the little details. So it evens out in the end. Just think about what you want for your day, and dont worry about what other people are going to think…cause even if you had a bharat, and you did it in a big castle with the best food and best service, people would still think of things to complain about…thats just the nature of our people! You have to feel comfortable with what you are doing…your heart has to be into it. This is what I wanted, and this is what my fiance wanted as well, and my parents backed me up, because my brother got married this way as well, but there were some issues from my in-laws side, but as soon as they saw how much money they were going to save (thousands of dollars), they agreed to it.

very true
