Hey!
came across your blog when I was looking for the name of the rasam where the bride’s sisters hold on to the groom’s pinky until they get mooooolah! Interesting breakdown of the events!
If you haven’t booked your photographer yet! Check me out- pakistani weddings are my specialty!

Thanks for stopping by!
Oooh “Ungli Pakray” – I love that rasm!
We actually have booked our photographer but definitely will check out your page

Your blog is so cute! I love it, I was looking forward to all the desi ‘to be bride’ stuff except I recently got ‘dis-engaged’ if that word exists lol.
Back to the point, I think its a great idea that you’re planning stuff beforehand and centralizing your thoughts, if you ever need any desi help or trend tips on the wedding way down here from Pakistan let me know
Good luck
Aw, I’m sorry to hear that – I’m a firm believer in “everything happens for a reason”
Thank you so much.. almost done most things now! YEAY!

Hey! Out of curiosity, are you bihari? Biharis are known for the chaapa dupattas, so I was just interested in knowing if you’re from there. FYI, I’m bihari, so I was just asking
Love your blog btw! Its nice to see such awesome posts from someone with the same name as me
Wow, same namer – LOVE it! I haven’t ever met someone with the same name as me… pretty cool
Yes, my moms side of the family is Bihari and my dads side is from Allahabad!

Wsalam Ayesha,
Thank you – glad you love it! Congrats on your wedding. I use GoDaddy.com as my webhost and have installed a WordPress theme on it. I find it really to use. Hope this helps

Hey shaza, omg I just want to say that your blog is amazing! I’m currently planning my wedding and trying to get my mehndi stuff sorted, I just wanted to ask how you made the mehndi plates in the shape of a petal? I’m using the same concept with small and large petels, the small ones seem okay to make but I’m not to sure what to use to make the large ones? Your help would be very much appreciated.

Hi Saira,
I’ll be writing a post on how we made it but in the meantime: how big are the larger ones? We used thick carboard boxes for mine – but since they didn’t have any weight on them on top, they could be light. Try putting cardboard on thick foam sheets if you need something more sturdy. I have seen people use wood too – but that would require special equipment for carving!
Thank you! Congratulations on your upcoming wedding

Hi Shaza,
You’ve got a great blog going here. I love how you’ve posted your wedding stories and other wedding related stuff in detail. It really helps when you’re planning a wedding.
Would you be able to direct me to stores in the GTA that sell Pakistani sherwanis for grooms? I’d appreciate the help. Keep up the good work on the blog.

Hi Nyla,
Thank you so much
Glad it’s helped!
For Sherwani’s, check out: Kohinoor Haute Couture (Albion), Oriental Costumes and I believe Naz Fashion Bug has them aswell. I searched for Sherwani’s 2 summers ago and I really liked the ones at Kohinoor!

Hi Shaza,
Just came across your blog! this is such a relief lol I was wondering, do you know of any cheap party venues in the GTA..for about 70 people for a dholki..ideally im looking for a place that just charges a rental fee of a few hundred for like 4-5 hours
Thanks!
