I've got a question..I need my hair and makeup done for two events, two separate days. I went to find out and the woman quoted me $850. $300 for the first day since I would go to the salon myself, and $550 for her to come out to NJ for the second event. Does that sound about right??



yeah sounds about right.. i used this girl from NJ for my engagement and she charged me $600 and ginni is phenomenal!!!

We are doing a mix of indian and afghan food..since afghan food is a lil less spicy, yet still has an authentic taste :)

cake is something I will have to look into also. But I want an inexpensive cake. I am def not looking into spending more than $200 on a cake. any suggestions?? and im thinking of getting a simple white cake so it wont cost too much. And then just have my decorator decorate with fresh flowers

daisies are pretty cheap as well. and i think roses may not be so expensive either. just make sure to got with flowers in season to keep the cost down.
