Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread

i'm trying to decide on a florist, hair, and make up...most of the other major vendors are booked

Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread

Are any of you girls wearing a sari on your wedding day? i'm wearing a gown for ceremony and hopefully most of reception but i'll be changing into a sari.
That's where i need your help...i don't know what sari to wear for the reception! anyone know a great store in jackson heights or a reliable website that you've ordered from? I've never really bought any indian clothes from here so i'm clueless. Thanks so much!!

Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread

hey

i got an awesome sari from India Sari Palace on 74th street, you have to bargain with them though..

theres another great store but its a couple of blocks away, called Pashmina, if you walk towards the theater and cross that main street, its a few stores down from the corner...
pashmina also has great jewelry in the adjoining store (both are pashmina) theyre a bit pricey, but their quality is awesome

theres another place and im forgetting the name, is right across the street from ISP which has modern saris.... all the other stores have saris but are of terrible quality... i'll let you know if i think of anything else, good luck!
