Re: those of you who had a long gap between nikah and rukhsati
haha, talk about problems that i had! it seems like EVERYONE except my family are so full of useless suggestions and crap. it's like, why are you having a big nikkah, why are you having a rukhsati, why are you spending so much money again, why aren't you just having a valima.. why this, why that.
seriously, do what you want. i had my fancy nikkah last year, and now i am having a rukhsati as well despite of everyone outside the family being against it. all i had to say was, as long as i am not asking YOU to spend money on it, mind your own business.
