Re: TORONTO people help!
No need to worry mahika. I agree with eastern11, you can do the mehndi now and leave the valima for Pakistan.
As for the other things you have to take care of:
Banquet Halls: really depends on what you’re looking for, most of them are in mississauga but a few have recently opened up in the Scarbororugh/Markham area. Call whoever appeals to you and find out if they’re available. I suggest calling now for halls if you’re planning for the summer because dates fill up pretty quickly with banquet halls.
DJ: I have absolutely no experience with DJ"s but you can google and I’m sure you’ll come up with suggestions + reviews.
Photography: Again, same thing just google/facebook and see what appeals to you. Here are a few I came up with just to get you started: https://www.facebook.com/aaphotoimages/?fref=ts https://www.facebook.com/AZphotographydesign/ https://www.facebook.com/Popcornstudios/ https://www.facebook.com/MementoPhotos/ https://www.facebook.com/shahidkamranphotography/ https://www.facebook.com/momentsmedia/
Cake: There’s quite a few people out there for cakes, I personally get my cakes from somebody on facebook by the name of “Sweet treats by Nadia” https://www.facebook.com/sweettreats.bynadia?fref=ts check her out, she does a pretty amazing job.
Decor: Depends on your budget but here are a few options: https://www.facebook.com/www.theperfectsetting.ca/?pnref=lhc https://www.facebook.com/lemontruffledesigns/?fref=ts https://www.facebook.com/Midnight-Decor-720728744662203/ https://www.facebook.com/fantasyeventdecor/ https://www.facebook.com/lailadecor/ https://www.facebook.com/luxuryeventdecor/ https://www.facebook.com/blissbeginnings/
Make-up and Beauty Services: There are a ton of people that do bridal make-up. Definitely check out Shirley Wu and her assistants, all of them do a great job! https://www.facebook.com/Beauty-Concept-by-Shirley-Wu-170174486379974/ Another one is Angel, who works from Markham https://www.facebook.com/Angells-Beauty-8787654237/?fref=ts
Mehndi: Summaiyah and Sonia do a very good job, you can check them out here: https://www.facebook.com/sumaiyah.artist?fref=ts and https://www.facebook.com/SoniasHennaArt/?fref=ts
For the bridal shower, what kind of restaurant are you looking for?
I hope this helps!
P.S: I’ve never dealt with any of the above stated suggestions (except for sweet-treats by Nadia and Shirley Wu).
This was a lot of help! Thank you I spoke to two photographs you mentioned and have messaged the mehndi artists too. Also, got in touch with Shirey’s salon. Now my concern with her is that she is the only person I have mostly heard about in Toronto. But now I am also hearing she is over rated because of the hype.. any comments on this?
