Over-done/cheesy Wedding things

Re: Over-done/cheesy Wedding things

I’m all for incorporating western concepts with our shaadis since some of us were brought up here, but I feel like sometimes everyone tries too hard and it ends up being a fail. that coupled with the unspoken rule that you have to spend lavishly to make it “worthwhile”. I get doing the nikkah at the masjid, and I like the idea but at the same time, I really really enjoy watching the nikkah at the wedding. It makes it special so it makes me sad that less and less people are doing that nowadays.
