Opt for Wedding Registries

Credits to Crystal D’sa

Everyone loves birthdays, weddings, basically any function that involves receiving gifts. I’ve had the privilege of putting together my grandparent’s 50th wedding anniversary and it was oh so grand, 50 years after all!  It was that moment when I was ready to rip all the wrapping paper apart and see what they received for such a prestigious occasion and I was horrified with the ridiculousness.

After 50 years, guests still thought my grandmother needed cooking items, trays and other sorts of kitchen appliances; as if after three succeeding generations she wouldn’t have the same stocked up with her. That’s when I told her, “You should have registered for gifts.”

Registering for a gift isn’t really asking for much, at least you won’t have to receive things that you don’t like, won’t use and give away. Engaged couples often set up wedding registries to help guests choose gifts that the couple will enjoy using. Setting up a wedding registry will help you and your guests avoid purchasing duplicate gifts or avoid unwanted gifts. This concept hasn’t caught on in India YET, but be the first to do it. It’s practical, hassle free and NO it isn’t rude as long as you follow a few DO’s and DONT’s.

 

The DO’s and DONT’s of Wedding Registries

Don’t go overboard

When registering, stick to two or three stores you love. Choose a national department store or chain that has lots of household basics. Think of your guests – select stores of low, medium and high end to that they have a variety to choose from.

Do Register Ahead of Time

Complete your registry four to six months before the wedding. This will give guests time to purchase gifts for the big day, but also for your engagement and Sangeet.

Don’t Tell Guests Where You’re Registered in Your Invitation

Once you have registered, give the information to immediate family and the wedding party, and let them spread the word. If you are asked where you have registered, go ahead and tell them, but it is not proper to include registry information in a wedding invitation. Registry information can be included on a wedding website- it gives them easier access to see what you have registered for.

Do Register for Enough Gifts

Register for more, so there will be plenty of items to choose from. Think about who your guests are, and register for gifts in a wide range of prices, or choose individual items rather than sets, as with pots and pans, for instance. Put a few expensive items on your registry, but balance them with equally with more affordable options.

Don’t Ask for Money

Now I know that this would just simplify it all, but it’s still taboo to ask for it. You could register for stocks via website or register for your honeymoon through a travel agency.

Do Review Your Registry

Your registry may not automatically notify you when a gift has been purchased, review your registry every few weeks, and more frequently as the wedding approaches. Use your updated registry to help you keep up with writing thank-you notes.

 

Don’t Limit Your Registry

Don’t just register for now, you’ve promised and settled to spend your entire life together, register for gifts that will be practical even in the long run. It just prolongs the excitement.

 

Do Write Thank-You Notes Right Away

Ideally, you should acknowledge every present immediately; writing a note the day you receive it is best, but sending it within two weeks is also acceptable. Obviously, the period surrounding your wedding is a busy time; if you fall short, just make every effort to send a thank you as soon as you can — but no later than three months!

Don’t Worry if You Don’t Get Everything on Your Registry

If you don’t receive everything you registered for, don’t worry. At least you got half of it!

 

 

 

 

Thrash your wedding dress or … NOT?

Credits to Crystal D’sa

It’s one of those mindless moments and I’m wondering what’s disposed off into the thrash; egg shells from breakfast, floor sweepings, paper balls after all that scribbling, empty bottles, but a WEDDING DRESS- not so much. I’m not married but a wedding planner by profession, I’ve not seen it personally. Probably the trend hasn’t caught on in India.

Thrash the wedding dress, fearless bride, rock the frock; call it whatever you like but my question to you- ‘Is the photo shoot really worth thrashing your wedding dress?’

The trend started with photographer John Michael Cooper in Las Vegas in 2001 but the idea originated from Meg Cummings of the show Sunset Beach. Remember the scene when she ran into the ocean in her wedding dress?

Black wedding dresses, mullet marry me dresses, Tina Turner’s black and green Swarovski embroidered dress or Jessica Biel’s frothy pink dress- NOT your thing? Maybe thrashing your wedding is just it!

How to thrash your wedding dress? Adventurous brides have jumped off cliffs, climbed trees, doused themselves with paint — even para sailing. There are plenty of ways to do this but one bride Natasha Samuel  took it one step too far.

Myths at our big fat Indian weddings

Credits to Crystal D’sa

Finnish brides keep a match to keep their love burning. Mexican brides sew three coloured ribbons to summon passion, bless food and bring financial luck. Bells are chimed at Irish weddings to keep evil spirits away and Italian couples smash glass estimate how many happy married years they have.

So what do us as Indians have? Plenty, trust me.

The darkness of the mehendi colour on her hand shows the deep love and respect she will receive from her husband and mother-in-law!

It’s almost every brides dream to design her wedding trousseau. Think twice, it’s considered unlucky to design your wedding outfits.

The English began ‘something new, old, borrowed, and blue and six pence in her shoe’. Borrowing from a happy bride or couple will bring you good luck but lending it, not so much. Indian irony-Your generosity might be bad omen.

Wear earrings when you are married and you will always be happy.

A week before the wedding, the bride and seven married women of her family make small balls of “chana dal ” (lentil), which are later dried and sent to the groom’s house to ensure that the pantry is always full with plenty to eat.

Crossing black cats path-unlucky! But if you see a black cat or a rainbow on your wedding day then it is considered to be a good luck. Spotting an open grave, lizard or a pig is a bad fortune.

Cats and weddings seem to go hand in hand.  A week before the wedding, it is considered good luck to have a cat eat out of your left shoe.

Our relationship with animals doesn’t end yet. In some places, the prospective groom sent members of his family to express his interests to the prospective bride; if, on their way, they saw a blind man, a monk, or a pregnant woman, it was thought the marriage would doomed. If, however, they saw nanny goats, pigeons, or wolves, good fortune would come to the marriage.

In some Hindu families, the bride is given a knife or any other sharp metal object to carry with her at all times after she is engaged till the wedding, so that she can protect her virtue – even from her fiancé! Grooms, watch out.

Don’t let your tea or coffee spill over-if boiling milk spills over it is considered to be a sign of pending misfortune.

It is good luck for the bride to take one look in the mirror once she is fully attired, but she should not look again. What a pity! Well, at least she’ll have photographs to look at.

Must-dos before deciding the length of your wedding veil

Credits to Leanne Pais

You’ve finished dressing up.

As you gaze at yourself in the oval-glass mirror, someone helps you put your veil on.

And that’s it. You’ve had made a memory. As you smile at your reflection, you no longer see a woman in a beautiful white gown, you see a bride.

Your veil is more than a simple accessory for your gown. It is the accessory that’s going to set off your gown, accentuate your figure and highlight your beautiful face. This diaphanous piece of fabric gives you more choices than you know what to do with.

What material do you want it in? What colours do you have to choose from? Are there multiple varieties of veils to choose from? The questions go on.

But we’re going to take this one step at a time. So before we start all else, you need to decide how to determine the length of your veil.

Step 1: Decide on the way you intend to style your hair before choosing the length of your veil. The hair accessories and hairdo you choose determines the height at which your veil will be pinned.

Step 2: While your veil is the most important accessory, remember not to let it overpower your gown. Choose a veil that flows 3 inches below the back neckline of your gown. The extra 3 inches will make you look elegant and tall. Add an extra touch of class by making sure that there isn’t a break between the veil and the back neckline of your gown.

Step 3: To effectively accentuate your figure, take your height into consideration. An elbow-length veil is perfect for you, if you’re shorter than 5’4”. However, consider going for a fingertip-length veil, which accentuates your frame, if you’re taller than 5’7”. If you’re in between these heights, let your gown and heart-strings decide what kind of veil would suit you best.

Step 4: You now have a fairly clear idea of what to keep in mind while selecting your veil. Follow these three steps and you’re golden! The last thing you need to, that would finally determine the exact length of your veil would be to check out the types of veils available. From Birdcage veils to Cathedral veils, we’ve got it all covered in our next post.

Something Old, New, Borrowed, Blue…

Credits to Crystal D’sa

This Victorian Era quote was customary to every bride; she’d take the effort to incorporate each of these elements into what she wears as good luck for a happy marriage. The original, “Something old, something new, something borrowed something blue and six pence in her shoe” has profound symbolism.  Usually, this quote applies to the brides wedding outfit, but couples today incorporate these elements in their wedding decor too. It may go unnoticed by the guests but are personal and have sentimental value to them.

Agreed, this quote was Victorian and then the American bride borrowed this tradition too, but we aren’t too far behind, many Indian brides are accustomed to this too and insist on following it.

Something old represents continuity with the bride’s family and past. Many brides use their mothers or grandmothers wedding gowns, lenghas and sarees. You could borrow a bit of it and bring into play your designs. Vintage jewelry, compact mirrors. ‘Something borrowed’ need not be something from your mother and grandmother; it could very well be something from your father like his button from an old suit; brides have been known to attach their fathers button at the hemline of the dress.

Something new symbolizes the couple’s optimism for their new life together. Your wedding trousseau is new but if their family heirlooms then there are several new elements you could add to complete your wedding look. Finding new elements are the least of your worries, there’s an endless list to choose from.

Something borrowed represents happiness; an item from a happily married family or friend whose good fortune in marriage is supposed to carry over to the new bride. This shouldn’t be impossible, just ask for an element that was used at their wedding- a piece of jewelry, a clutch, or shoes too! You needn’t have to walk in them to avoid blisters on your wedding day. You could simply carry a handkerchief or prayer book.

Something blue; in ancient Rome it symbolised love, fortune and fidelity. A blue garter, some orchids in your bouquet, a blue hair pin, blue shoes or nail colour for your toe nails.

Needless to say sixpence no longer counts. It was worth six pennies; this originally was a Scottish custom to place it in their left shoe! Grooms I’m sure your bride isn’t going to place one in her shoe maybe you could try being part Scottish for a day.

Exotic Honeymoon Locations Across The World

Credits to Vijay isaac

If there’s just one thing to top up a flawless destination wedding, it has got be a honeymoon on foreign shores. New age couples are always looking to break away from the norm, to create a norm for themselves really. From over-the-top weddings to underwater nuptials, the most daring amongst them all have been there and done that. However, when looking to take everything to the next page, exotic honeymoons are currently the rage.
Not that we are honeymoon experts or anything of that sort, but given that we have worked on so many weddings, we’d like to believe we are knowledgeable enough to impart generic details on some of the most exotic honeymoon locations across the world.

Bahamas
For a one-of-a-kind experience, Bahamas has got to be a favorite pick. The greetings of the sand paired perfectly well with the visual of tempting blue waters will only see you falling in love twice as much. What makes the Bahamas so unique in its appeal is not its characteristic laidback spirit that will be quick to dominate you, but how easy it can be to feel very one with the place, rapidly helping you to forget monotony we suppose. Head to the Bahamas if tropical charm, global attractions and an eclectic twist of ecology are what you are expecting from your honeymoon trip.

Italy
A far cry away from the Bahamas or any other beach-country destination, Italy is a honeymoon paradise in its own way. Falling in love in Italy, over and over again shouldn’t be too much of a challenge. Cobblestone streets, period churches, art all around, museums, the food, the wine, the people, the culture, everything can seem absolutely loveable, almost making you want to stay in Italy forever, never wanting to return home. However, what can be a challenge for us is to single out any one Italian destination, possibly because every little and big thing about the country is nothing short of a treat to the senses. The draw of Venice, Tuscany’s rolling sunflower hills, the culture in Florence and the history of Rome, makes it difficult to just pick out one part of Italy. However, what can be pretty simple to do is to decide on which part of Italy appeals to you the most and pack your bags to just that one, and if love bites harder when in Italy, which it mostly will, visit every other part of the glorious country too.

Mexico
 Going by common knowledge, very rarely do we hear of couples honeymooning off to Mexico, at least in our part of the world. For us, we can’t help but wonder why? To pack our bags off to taco-land and with an icing of love would be nothing but a dream come true.
Any which way you look at it and not going by views and opinions shared on talk shows and in the movies, Mexico is as welcoming as a country can get. What you can expect from the historical land is pretty much endless. Beaches surrounded by greenery that stretches to as far as the eye can see, nature clubs, nightclubs, museums, top-of-the-rung tourist services, golf courses, exotic foods, romance all the way, really. What is also striking about the country of Mexico is its hotels. The ones high on experiences will strike for you a great balance between what is nature and what is man-made. Look to head to such hotels when in Mexico, and along with everything else in the country, a truly gratifying experience is a surety.

Kenya
Want to discover your wild side when on your honeymoon? No more questions asked, destination Kenya it is.
To put some thought into it, Kenya cannot really be your typical honeymoon destination, but then we are not dwelling on the done; we are dwelling on the undone which is Kenya – a wild paradise from time immemorial. From the roars of a lion shattering the silence of an African night to the sighting of migratory zebra and wildebeest, it doesn’t get any wilder. If you are looking for a honeymoon that is loaded with adventure and once-in-a-lifetime experiences, choose Kenya, it’s after all the country home to the awe-inspiring Mt. Kilimanjaro.

Arya Samaj Weddings read like poetry…

Credits to Leanne Pais

The rites at an Arya Samaj wedding are like poetry- simple yet enveloped in beautiful symbolism. The couple forms the forefront of the ceremony, in its celebration of togetherness in the truest sense- the couple in place of idols.

It begins with the exchange of garlands by the couple- I accept you to be my partner for as long as I shall live.

The bride then offers honey, ghee and curds to the groom- We will be hospitable to all who come to our home, and I, the bride, am determined to turn any sourness into sweetness.

It is an inclusive ceremony- We give you our daughter, look after her well.

And it is all about the promise- She is mine, as I am hers.

Through the course of the ceremony the bride and groom promise themselves to each other in ways that are symbolic, spiritually.

Water from two separate glasses is poured into a bowl, symbolising that two hearts have become one and can never be told apart.

Mantras are prayed and offerings are made to fire as a witness to God.

The groom holds his bride’s right hand as a symbol of trust and a promise to keep her happy as his life’s partner, as they make their symbolic walk around the fire.

The groom then pledges his love and devotion, while the bride places her right foot on a piece of rock, symbolising the stability of their commitment to each other.

The bride offers puffed rice to the fire- praying for her husband to be blest with a long life. The couple then walks around the fire thrice, symbolising the groom’s happiness to welcome his bride into his house.

And together, the couple takes the seven steps of marriage, symbolising the tying of the sacred marital knot that entwines their lives.

The ceremony comes to an end when the couple is blest by their families and elders.

 

 

The 10 Commandments of Bridal Makeup

Credits to Leanne.

Always, always go for the classic and timeless look- subtle and minimalist makeup. Trends fade out faster than you think and when it’s time to get nostalgic over wedding photos, you’d rather be smiling at your classy self than cringing at the trendsetter you used to be.

You don’t want to look pale and chalk faced in your wedding photos .Bronzing powders work like magic to make your skin tone warm. However, go easy on it by opting for golden-toned bases and concealers.

To look radiant on your wedding day, don’t camouflage your beauty by wearing bright coloured eye-shadows and rouge. Opt for lighter and more natural colours. It’s safer not to over-correct any blemishes you might have, because if your concealer’s even a shade too light, odds are it’ll be overemphasised in your photos.

Wedding makeup trials are a must. Schedule one at least a month in advance, so you get to see what you’d look like on your wedding day. Take a photo of your wedding dress so that your makeup artist has an idea of what you’d look like in it and can take cues from it while  planning your makeup for the wedding.

Not many people are aware of this, but world renowned makeup artists’ advice against using talc-based powder foundations. It is believed that this type of foundation can oxidise and darken on your face, giving you a splotchy look as the day progresses. Instead, opt for gel based foundations, as they leave your skin moisturised.

Emphasise your eyes but don’t get carried away by the latest trends. Shimmers, highlights and any light-refractive makeup can leave your skin with a very unflattering shine. Stick to neutral shades for your shadows and opt for eyeliners in black, navy or brown.

Everyone loves the Blushing Bride look. Opt for a peach or rose tinted blush. Cream blushes work well to give you the lovely natural dewy glow, but if you tend to have oily skin powder blushes can be used to give you the same effect.

Pink, rose and red lip colours look absolutely stunning for all skin tones. In addition, it leaves you looking bright and vibrant all day long.

Get the best out of your lip-liner by using it evenly over your lips and not just to highlight the contours. This helps you with long lasting lip-colour, and when your lipstick fades, it fades out evenly.

And finally, enjoy yourself. Smile a lot, ‘cause no makeup can make up for that radiant smile in all your photos!

Candid Wedding Photography – Why are we vouching for it

Credits to Vijay Isaac.

By definition, candid photography is photography accomplished without preparing a subject for a pose. In reality and in the context of weddings, it is a set of your most frank, natural and loveable moments caught on camera. No ‘smile please’, ‘say cheese’ or ‘look here madam’.

Over the past few years, candid wedding photographers have become a complete must for a successfully memorable wedding. This has mostly come about because of the lifelong beauty candid photographers add to a wedding. Yes, every nuptial agreement still has its down-the-road studio guys doing their thing—picture flashy lights, average cameras and non-stop and non-aesthetic photography. This apart, candid photographers have come to be in a league of their own because of the way they operate, the equipment they possess and the output they deliver which can be soft copies of photographs or high-quality wedding albums, or both. Of course, the quality of service can vary from photographer to photographer.

 

Wedding Planners Bangalore

A good candid wedding photographer can operate in two proven ways. One, he or she can go about their business without asking the bride or groom to pose specifically for them. Two, he or she can get some of the best shots taken without even being detected by the bride or the groom, maybe just like a sniper, but a one who shoots with a camera and thankfully not a gun. Sometimes, wedding photographers can also ask couples to pose, to add some rhythm to their candid shots. This will mostly be done during a pre-wedding or post-wedding photo shoot.

Why Are We Vouching For The Breed Of Candid Wedding Photographers?

For this one, we can go on and on about why you should have a candid photographer at your wedding, but there are just a few hallmark reasons that demonstrate why a good wedding photographer put to work is an absolute must.

Professionalism – Pro Vs. Joe

Professional candid wedding photographers come with the promise of professionalism. Just like how a doctor would go about executing a surgery, a professional wedding photographer would go about covering a wedding. Do not look at saving on the dough by hiring your neighbor’s son to cover your wedding because he shot great pictures of your uncle’s pet pony running around in a farm. BIG MISTAKE! Weddings and the skillful photography associated with it are entirely a different ballgame. You need a professional. You wouldn’t trust your cousin with a tooth extraction because he owns a dentist’s drill, loves dentistry and knows six dentists, would you? Then why even get into NOT hiring a professional to cover your wedding, something that is possibly a thousand times more important than a tooth extraction.

Quality – Why Compromise?

Like how candid wedding photographers come with the promise of professionalism, they also do come with the promise of quality. With the hiring of an experienced and reputed wedding photographer what you get is nothing short of beauty. To draw a parallel for you, think of how an exceptional artist effortlessly paints on canvas, a wedding photographer does something very similar to this, but only on film. Beautiful edits, well-chosen words, unconventional shots of conventional wedding features and a progression to the pictures without randomness are just a few value additions you can expect from a candid wedding photographer.

Going The Distance – A Higher Level Of Involvement

Candid wedding photographers don’t just start their shooting when the ceremony begins and stop when it ends, they go the distance. Couples are whisked away for pre-wedding and post-wedding shoots and at beautiful locales. Everything is covered: the cufflinks of the groom, the bride’s diamond earrings, the makeup, the dress, the tuxedo, the shoes, the flowers on the wedding car, the ceremony, the décor, in-laws, relatives, friends, the pageboy, the flower girl, etc. This way you’ll REALLY have something to show your kids.

The Memory Remains

Believe it or not, but your wedding album very naturally becomes a part of your family’s heirlooms, to be passed on from generation to generation. It’s probably that one thing you will treasure the most about your wedding and to remain with you for life. And since you are making a memory out of it, may as well make the memory worth it—timeless photography is what you need to be looking at.

Know Budget! No Hole!

Contrary to what you might think, a decent wedding photographer shouldn’t put a hole in your wedding budget. Yes, while there may be the burning-a-hole-in-your-pocket guys, you can always arrive at a compromise. The costs of hiring a professional wedding photographer can begin at a little lesser than half of a lakh rupees and go on to a couple of lakhs. With a little bit of asking around, you can very smartly choose the kind of photographer who fall comfortably into your budget allocations.
