HI
Did any people got married during the month of Ramadan?
If so, why is it happen, is it because bridal make up, wedding hall, catering all cheaper than during the busy wedding season in winter time?
also it is possible that all guests arrive on time for Iftar specific so they are not fashionable late like other normal day wedding time.

Ramdan main shadi? 
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
Never heard of shadi in ramdan! Probably people do simple nikkah at home or masjid but not big functions.
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
I have heard of some shadies in ramazan but never attended one.
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
I have only heard of someone having their Nikkah during Ramadaan, but not an actual big wedding function.

Salaam All,
My Sister's Wedding was a "last minute" thing lol and that was the reason it was in Ramadan last year. The Bride and Groom wanted it in Ramadan because of some personal reasons and were also convinced that a wedding in Ramadan will have extra blessings. However, I am not sure of that being true in authentic Hadith and Quran. Anyhow, since it was in NJ, nothing was that much cheaper. In fact, the plate per person for desi iftar is more expensive than other months. It was in a hall (small and simple). As for guests, yes they all arrived on time for an iftar wedding and for being called at the last minute. My sisters including the bride and myself were the last ones to get there but, it didn't matter because Nikah was read immediately after Maghrib Namaaz. There was no music and just lectures and Naats being read. It wasn't as bad for an unplanned wedding. We managed to have the hall people help us with the someone they knew for stage & photography. She had a nice outift, matching table covers and napkins..So, Maybe it was the blessing of Ramadan or her luck because everyone told us it seemed like we had planned it since Alhumdulilah all went well..

its a cultural thing i think.... we have had so many weddings happening here during ramadan. all arab though.
for pakistanis its a no no... never seen one either.
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
umm i attended a friends nikkah ceremony in Ramadan bak in 2006, but i guess they got married in Ramadan coz they were in a hurry 
(one day larke wale came to see her and 3-4 days later they had the nikkah) it was at a hall , a lot of the guests were late for the iftar, some didnt even show up. But the bride & grooms side din even care, as long as the nikkah was done..

Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
Never heard of that so people who get married in ramadan sit there and recite/sing naats?
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
Sorry but I found this funny 
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
yeah saw one such wedding. it was that they were visiting from london. boy and his family was in pakistan. so probably due to some visa issues, her mother got her married in ramazan. it's been said that girl and boy were old classfellows. so due to ramazan , only closest friends were called to give the blessings.
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
ramadan is the holy month, so i'm sure it's a good thing getting your nikha in ramadan, however, most people chose not to have it during ramadan is beause you can't/shouldn't play music or dance..
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
i think ppl dont do full shaadi in ramadan.... coz the whole purpose of ramadan is to move away from all worldy things and pay attention to Allah's ibadat.
even thought shaadi is farz.... but the amount of planning and organization one goes through.... i highly doubt they would get time for Allah beside listening to the presentation at the shadi.
small events at home are do-able but full shaadi i think it doesnt seem right. Allah's blessings can come in anymonth....... sare months hi Allah keh hain.
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
My brother got married in Ramadan. Him and my bhabi had very little time off from work and such, and if they didn't do it then, they would have had to wait for a while.
It went amazingly well! There obviously wasn't as much halla gulla. But in regards to people getting there in time, it was amazing.
The iftar was served, so people got there IN TIME for iftar. After the bride entered the hall, the iftar was served. After iftar, it was all the rasmain. ANd then quickly after, dinner was served. And rasmain continued. People had enough time to leave for taraveeh if they wanted. We were done by 10pm and home by 11pm. This was in Karachi.
Valeema went just as well. Dinner was served shortly after iftar.
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
My cousin got married during Ramadan as well, just nikah tho..
Re: Wedding in Ramadan?
I guess the girl who got married in ramazan was from Ahl-e-Tashee and they probably say that they have to look up some wedding dates from their aalim-e-deens, so probably the nearest wedding date was in Ramazan.
