Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread
Hi girlsGibi, I think you should ask your bm to help us, you should not put all the weight on yourself, this is their duty as bm too. but don't worry, you still have time to do it. also check out the internet and make some phone calls, maybe you will find something too.
Jlu, we had fun in the party, I think it is good idea for all the BM get together (especially if they don't know each other) So they can work together to help you plan the wedding.
Leena & Jiji, can't wait to see your outfits. I love leena's white wedding gown, so unique and jiji, I love purple. I am sure it will be beautiful!

HiWell I was born in india and adopted by an american famly at 5 weeks old. I dont know alot about the culture. But a friend of mine married and indian girl and their invitations were amazing! They were scrolls! Can you get them in the U.S.? I'd like to use them.
I would also like to use other indian touches during my wedding. Any suggestions?
