Well it all depends.. Those bindi and dot things can look quite pretty.
Pretty-:
Hmm.. Not so pretty-:
Beautiful -with eye contacts-:
Jhoomars Look really nice, bit OTT with the neckware-:
Re: Tackiest thing you're ever seen a bride rock...
Janab-e-Ali - I forgot coloured lenses, I really dislike them - why change your eye colour on your wedding day?! The pictures are gonna last with you forever and I think it's something that will be easily regrettable later on in life. Tacky tackyy tackyyy!!
I also find DJ's tacky (just my personal preferences before anyone feels the need to get on the defensive) and they never seem to listen to what is requested - they just play the bhangra tunes that they like. Many many brides have horror stories of how they chose a song they really wanted to walk in to and then the DJ played some stupid 'Amplifier' type bhangra reject song.
I recently went to a wedding where they were playing the music from bollywood songs - no words. And they were all really soft love songs, it was sooo classy!
Another pet peeve of mine for weddings is 'singers' - we're at a wedding for gods sake not a concert!!! And some of the singers think they're the centre of attention for the night, we recently went to a wedding where the singer was some weird sikh guy who was wearing a dirty t-shirt, shed loads of gold jewellery and he was dancing all over the stage taking over the bride and grooms limelight.
Another thing is the recent trend of 'the first dance' amongst our community.
MixedBeauty that pic of the jhoomar that you posted is nice, I actually like the jhoomar - it looks nice when it's done properly.
Re: Tackiest thing you're ever seen a bride rock...
long plastic square fake nails and coloured contacts are tackyyy to the extreme imo. i also hate those 'panjagla' things esp the really dense ones in fake gold, they look soo tacky to me.
Re: Tackiest thing you’re ever seen a bride rock…
To clarify my earlier point on gold sandals…
Tacky gold sandals:
Elegant gold sandals:
They’re understated and elegant, not overly strappy and covered in plastic “gems” and bows
Re: Tackiest thing you're ever seen a bride rock...
ew the last one is nasty
i think their pretty, whats wrong with them?
It was a link to another forum =)
Huh? Whose links are we talking about? The links I posted led to google, but does it matter either way now that they're gone?
And feel free to bring to our attention if you see other links not being removed, even if they are by one of the mods.
My Stoppit ain't no stinkin' narc!
As mentioned before, you're better off taking this up with admins since they make the rules, not us, so it's quite useless talking about it here.
Pareezay, I will let you take an X-acto knife to any and all of my posts (no matter the reason) but I simply will not stand here and allow you to speak that way to my future wife! For God's sake, woman: she's an engineer AND and a British Citizen! It took me this long to find such a rishta! WHY MUST YOU RUIN IT FOR ME?!?
My personal favorite:
Bless, you! You found a pic of jhoomers done right. I hate it when the chains and hook are visible; cheapens the hairdo.
Re: Tackiest thing you’re ever seen a bride rock…
Woohoo, I get to be the wife again.
This will be my dulhan look then 
***external links pointing to the other forums* are usually not allowed.**
Wouldn't those be considered internal links, if they link to other forums inside of GupShup? Is this in addition to the links not allowed to external sites (in my case, it was Google)?
Not to belabor the point, but if you're not allowed post any links, whether they link to pages inside or outside of GupShup, wouldn't it be simpler (as the Admin of this site) to just remove the insert hyperlink/remove hyperlink buttons that are there each and every time you post a reply, to hammer home the point? Perhaps I just misunderstood.
Then all I can say is: thank God you’re ‘wheatish’.
Re: Tackiest thing you're ever seen a bride rock...
^I just need to know what oil to use in my hair :(
Re: Tackiest thing you're ever seen a bride rock...
given your weather conditions, a quart of 5W-30.
Re: Tackiest thing you're ever seen a bride rock...
oh pal, you came to wedding especially for me. i'm so grateful. my brain is a well oiled engine.
Re: Tackiest thing you're ever seen a bride rock...
not even touching that one.

Shhh!!! Don't anger him; he's queer, so he probably does decent hair and makeup!
Incidentally, Queer: do you think you'll be able to do anything for her 'wheatish' complexion? I like my brides ghostly white.

Come to think of it, Stoppits would suit the desi Edward look. There are quite a few lasses seaching for that too.

Nope, doesn't matter to me- I thought since you and I had talked about this, the 'issue' was over. But ofcourse, not every xyz can comprehend that.

Good. It's hard to pick out a decent bridal jora when you gals are putting me under this kind of stress. :*(
