Bint, u shud try and get ur fiance to visit this place. I am def. trying to convince mine :D Seems like there is a lot of activity that's gonna go on, and since we have yet to decide on decorators, DJ, etc. this place mite serve to be quite helpful.
After all, we all need as many ideas as possible when it comes to wedding preps sigh
Oh dun worry. We'll all do fine InshaAllah! I was planning on going to Chicago for the expo weekend. Have to finalize some other affairs too. But boy oh boy the beautiful weather of Chicago is so uninviting. Lets see are you planning on being there too? Might convince him then lol.
Shay can you tell us more about the make up she did on your cousin.
Bonbonniere about the people that come from back home or elsewhere you don't HAVE to pay for them. I don't think they should feel that you are thinking about your own self. You are the bride so there is no comparison. What you can do is once they get here casually mention the mau's name to them, tell them how much she charges for party make up & ask 'em if if any one of 'em is interested in getting the make up done from her so you can get the booking done in advance. That way you'll look thoughtful & they get the point indirectly that this is the charge if they wanna get it done professionally. No hard feelings there.
Oh & by the way I emailed Mehwish Khan the same time Noodles did. Haven't received a reply yet. Saleha sounds reasonable too. How is her work?
