Indian weddings, what are they like?

02 Sep

My bfs family likes me and all and know we will be getting married, the are punjabi Indians, which practice the religion Sikh. I know he wants to have a traditional wedding to please his family besides I think he wants an excuse to have a ridiculously extravegant wedding. I’m just curious as to what it entails and how much punjabi in need to learn. He says I don’t need to speak and it lasts like five days well like all the days leading up to it. Anyone have anymore info? Oh and I’m suppose to wear red, also I wasn’t sure I have yet to see a Sikh woman in the short top under a sari, do they only wear long ones? Even for a wedding? I wouldn’t mind, I have confidence issues as it is so being shy and showing my stomach doesn’t mix well. But other than that jw if anyone would know

Are disposable cameras a waste of money at weddings?

30 Aug

I’m interested in having a disposable camera at each table for our reception. I’ve read however, that most of the time the pics come out crappy and it’s just a waste of time. What do you think? Has anyone actually had a wedding and done this and had a good outcome or should I just save my $100 and not do any of that?

 

How do you make “cement or concrete filled containers to hold flowers outside on tables for weddings as decor.

30 Aug

I need to make little bases for holding flower and balloon arrangements outside as decorations for tables. I need something fairly heavy so they don’t fall over. Can I use cement or concrete of some kind and which does the best job. I would like to fill little flower pots with the “cement” and then put small arrangements of balloons and flowers inside. These will be used for several occasions. What are your suggestions?

Does anyone know where Lisa from Living TV’s Four Weddings got her wedding dress from?

26 Aug

I absolutely adored Lisa’s (the lady with the long red hair from Essex/London) wedding day look (although the dress was a bit too low-cut for my taste) and was hoping that someone might know where the dress is from? Her hair piece was lovely too and I loved her earrings – does anyone know where I can find the same items?

For a recap on what it looked like – here’s a link to Lisa and Damien’s first dance (scroll down the side menu to select the video)

Many thanks in advance!

 

Wedding dress questions and weddings and BQ?

25 Aug

Hi i’m Lola

I’m pregnant with Lito Aadijah Abbott (Abbott ~ surname) and with the help of my triplet sisters I got to choose a lovely name! It will be a boy and I’m so excited! I am Indian by the way.

But my question is actually about weddings:

My husband Karan and I, Lolita, want to get married before Lito arrives, and since I’m 5 months, we want a traditional and loose indian wedding dress to fit over the bump. The lady in the shop says she can make one to fit. I like the third one from the left. What do think?

Having two weddings? One in secret?

22 Aug

My fiancee and I were talked into having our wedding in the fall by my Mom (I don’t know why)… We definitely don’t want to wait this long. I need medical insurance and cannot get any without being on his insurance, which requires us to be married. We have been by passed by so many people who were engaged before us and we don’t want to wait this long. I am not able to get the medical care that I need for a serious health issue without insurance..

Our question is…if we were to get our pastor to marry us in his office (very quietly with maybe our parents).. and not tell anyone.. Could we still have our wedding in the fall/summer like we have planned and I wear the dress I have.. etc, etc? It sounds rediculous but when you are being denied medical coverage because you’re not married and are tired of being upstaged by others who have never thought about getting married until you got engaged.. you would see why. Is this unfounded?
We’re not getting married because of that. We want to get married and I am very sick and need health insurance!
