yeh it totally sucked specially since it wasnt my fault to get there late. my valima was the day following my wedding. the wedding was in khi, the valima in isb and it sucked to travel so much because we had missed our flight which was at 8 am. something was wrong with that flight so we decided to go on the next flight to isb except that EVERY flight to isb that day was full so we told the people to put us all in business class (we were about 13 people) they said they didnt have business class seats available for that day either. then we were like ok u must have atleast 2 seats in business for the bride and groom, and they told us we would be on standby and we didnt wanna take the risk so we all flew to faisalabad and realized when we got there that the drive from faisalabad to isb was 6 hours. needless to say, it was a horrible horrible day and i wouldnt recommend anyone having back to back events.
so while we were on the road from faisalabad to isb, we kept callign meelees telling her the situation and she was like, well since ur late im not gonna do the makeup, im gonna have my assistant do it. and we were like no, we paid u to do the makeup, so ur gonna do it and then she was like, well if i do it im gonna change 2k extra which i thought was ridiculous because she wasnt sympathetic at all and was a total b*tch. and her makeup wasnt really that good either. ive seen some far away pics of myself on that day that guests took and they werent that great. i havent seen the professional pics yet but hopefully they are somewhat decent.
when i went there i told her i want very little makeup and i wanna look myself, with my natucal color base. she did very light makeup then while i was sitting there i realized that my SIL had bought a God awful valima jewelry set for me to wear that looked like bells on a cow (it was that huge). yes, i had an awful day and i woudl recommend you pick out everything for urself. also, these people didnt know how to pin up my duppata and didnt have any sticker or anything to stick the tikka to my forehead so during my photoshoot it kept swinging from left to right. i was so tired, hungry and upset that day i actually started getting tears in the car on my way to PC and my husband kept aplogizing.
all in all, go to daniellas and pick out ur own things to wear specially on the big days.
