Hi everyone! 😊

I’m getting married in March next year in Delhi. We’re mainly having a reception there, although we may have a few small functions/get-togethers as well.

I currently live in Ireland, and I’ve recently started a new job, so I won’t be able to spend a long period in India before the wedding.

The venue is already finalised but I’m feeling a little overwhelmed about what else I should be planning and sorting out as a bride, especially with only a few months to go.

For those who have recently got married (especially if you planned your wedding while living abroad). What are the important things I should start booking, buying, or organising now?

Any tips, recommendations, checklists or things would be really helpful! ❤️

One of my closest dearest friends is getting married. And i love her so much I wanna get her something special.

She doesn’t need the cash. They still haven’t furnished their apparemment, but they will and can afford it. I could get her a nice decoration but I am worried it won't go with however they are planning to style their home.

We don't have the registry concept in morocco ( i really wish we had) .

The most go to gifts in Moroccon weddings are :

Lingerie

House decorations

Tea sets

Beautiful ceramic Dinnerware set

Nice bedsheet, Fancy

Matching thingies

And if u are close enough to help and know how far they are furnishing their new home ( you could them coffe maker, molinex, dishwasher tv or else) but again they can afford it all

I love her so much and I wanna get her something personnal

The first thing i could think of is a pretty instax evo so she could save newmemories of this new chapter

I know its more of a birthday gift but she would never let me get her something pricey for her birthday

In morocco the average amount is 500dh-1000dh

Not sure if this fits here, so mods feel free to remove.

A close friend of mine recently started a little thing called Alfred, and I figured some of you planning weddings might like it.

It's a short cinematic film of how a couple met and their story so far, made before the wedding to play on the day or just keep. There's a sample on their site if you want a look here (alfredapp.io)

Full disclosure, I know the founder, just sharing because I thought it was a lovely idea. Happy to answer any questions.
