Re: Whats up with the one-way gift giving?!?
it's just too much burden on the girls parents.
i mean they have to gifts gold jewellery watches and loads of clothes to everyone immediate and extended family
to top it off, lots and lots of jahez with all the crockery and furniture and electronics
then arrange for two or at least three functions (engagement, mehndi, barat)
and MOST IMPORTANTLY ...giving the daughter away too :(
it's sad ...isnt it.
am already stressing how my parents would manage the entire shadi, with SOO much inflation and high rates of gold in Pak
