OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread

Original post by riniko

Hi all,

I have had the opportunity to meet a handful of LIW South Asian (Indian) brides as well as non-Indians marrying Indians through LIW.

Everyone can participate in the thread but some of us felt it would be helpful to share information to fellow Indian (or Desi) brides out there.

If you all are for it, we can post info that will help each other on it. Like DJs, makeup artists, clothing resources, etc etc.

Take care!

I went and threaded my entire face today

It wasn't so bad. Now, i have to get a facial. I also made an appt. for an entire body wax for next month before the wedding!

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??



She is amazing, She did my makeup too. She charged me 500 for Long Island, and i was only 10 min. away from her. So for Jersey, 550 is not bad at all.

How's everyone? I am not here very often, but i miss u girls
