Has anyone heard of a place called Sultana in Queens?
I need the address!
Here is the info you are looking for:
Sultana.Com Inc
259-18 Hillside Avenue, Floral Park, NY 11004
(718) 470-9100
I just had a blouse made there - they have lots of designs to pick from. Turned out great.

djsbride~ were you able to find someone to help you with the henna and bindi? If not check out some of the indian salons in hicksville, i'm sure you can find someone to help.
i had such a good day yesterday
i went to Tri County for the first time and it was great! i got my tiara, veil, hair clips, flower girl baskets, and i saw some cute flower girl dresses that might go back to get. Can i tell you it was so much FUN trying on veils!!!! i didn't want to take it off lol

Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread
hey girls I need your advice: how do you get wrinkles out of a sari? It's a silk sari with a lot of work so I don't want to iron it. What should I do? It's the sari for an engagement party we're having so I want to make sure I look good!

Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread
haven't recieved scroll invites before but i have seen them on the indian invite sites. I believe they come with an envelope so you can mail them out. why don't you order some samples? oh and do you know how to get the wrinkles out of my sari? i'm desperate!

Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread
jlu - get a mini steamer they should sell them at the malls. thats what i use to get the wrinkles out if i cant iron a sarithe scroll invitations might be a lot of postage to send out to people as well.
gibi - what kind of dress did you pick?
btw - does anyone know if crest hollow gives you place cards? i was looking over my contract this weekend and is said that. who knows!

i'll have to try again! leena i doublechecked about the place cards and cresthollow definitely provides it along with direction cards. btw, who are you guys using as your bm at cresthollow? i heard that there are a lot of staff changes going on? i'm using mitchell so i think he's still around...i know leo left, my friend was using him
