The fact that the bride was totally fine with her mom planning and her mom doing the MOST for her daughter. Not that it’s the money that’s love but it’s the EFFORT she put in and TIME and THOUGHT. Now that’s parenting

[@louiseclarkashburn6664]

Not really great parenting to give your child so much and teach that total indulgence is to be expected. What if her new life includes hardship and privation at times, will she know how to cope?

[@louiseclarkashburn6664]

I studies for exams while raising a child, doing a clinical internship, and doing household chores as usual. That’s not the point I was making. It is their money and the choice as to how they spend it is theirs. I just think spending so lavishly gives both bride and groom an unrealistic view of life. That is such a hard act to follow.

[@reshmastadas1701]

@@louiseclarkashburn6664 Good for you! But let's be honest... Her mother spent 15000$ on invitations... What kind of "hardship" you imagine her to have in future? She will have staff for everything. Instead of being a rich useless trash she is focusing on creating her own identity, which is a good thing. I see daughters fighting in this same show about the dress their mother chooses. Meanwhile she had a whole wedding planned out by her mother but she didn't say that "it's too tacky" or "I don't like the color of the napkin guests are wiping their mouths with". Being an Indian all I can say is that that's in the culture. We see emotions behind the things, we don't like to hurt our parents and we take care of them even when they are old. Even when they re bedridden, that's what good kids here are supposed to do (and I am proud of it). I don't know about her, but I have many dresses my mom bought for me that I don't like much, but I still wear them just because I want to see her smile everytime I wear them. I think the person is talking about that kind of "parenting".

Lately a week is normal! But earlier, sometimes it could even take around 3 weeks to a month! We have many traditions and ceremonies, each differ with from where ur from and ur family, but there are a few that are more famous. It’s lots of fun, it’s basically a festival. New clothes get made or bought, the best food EVER (sometimes it’s a show off competition, which isn’t the best thing) but there are places in India where it is done very very low-key. Some people are starting to do smaller weddings as well, but usually as a compromise the reception has tons of people (ofc this differs from person to person, family to family, state to state, and everything). Basically u should totally come to one and then come to thousands. Just an input

Spent all that money on the invitations but not the brides outfits 😭 being a Pakistani those outfits are awful! India has such pretty traditional clothes, feel like desi’s living abroad don’t know how to dress when it comes to weddings.

[@minakshitiwari8285]

completely agree. she could have spent on her bridal wear than on invitation. She cud have got beautiful dress from Manish Malhotra or Sabyasachi.

[@smollilbean]

My thoughts exactly. I'm kind of mad actually.

[@sanaahanaa5475]

@@smollilbean it made me mad too lol

[@aaditisharma10b99]

Abeyyy it was recorded in 2010 something!!!

[@piratequeen7431]

True. Even the mom's gown is classier than the Bride and the groom's clothes; specially the groom's clothes 🤢

[@ellasmommy9278]

That was an absolutely stunning wedding. The bride and the groom just look spectacular. I like that they went with tradition. I can see her mother put a lot into wedding planning and loved it. Bride was awesome about it too

[@mariagentles1106]

This must have cost a cool million for this wedding. It was truly a joyous occasion. May God bless your union

[@r.b.8018]

That’s typical Indian wedding for u.

[@madhurimak564]

Doesn't really cost a million, many people do it

[@jazlen20]

Wow! That was amazing! I’m glad they shared this wish them the best. I love seeing how other cultures celebrate their marriage.

[@MOMOHEARTS]

That was so pretty. I can't wait for my wedding when the comes. We had to push it back a couple of times cause of life and pandemic, but I know this long wait will be worth it.

[@jilledmondson6894]

Beautiful wedding ceremony, setting and beautiful bride and handsome groom. Congratulations.

[@sallyhay3369]

I think the award of the day should go to the horse, for being so calm - I know what the outcome would be if I put my horse in that situation!! 🤣🤣

[@は私です彼の名前]

I love Indian weddings. I love Indian culture. It is so passionate and loving.

[@dayshanyadavis5893]

This wedding made my arm hairs stand up so beautiful 😢

[@whatevergoesforme5129]

I am a practical woman and will not spend a lot for an event and am not into events that much as an introvert. That being said, I do enjoy seeing such display of pageantry in any traditional events like weddings.

[@HallAroundTheWorld]

She looked stunning and the ceremony looked amazing. Also I can't wait to visit NYC, but honestly now if I don't see an Indian man riding round on a horse I'm gonna feel disappointed haha,.

[@theonlyvarsha9019]

I loved the way they did the fusion of Indian wedding and western wedding.

[@emy4love]

i LOOOOOOOVE cultural colorful traditional weddings like this! The couple seem soooo in love and a great match. But WHO is getting married? MOM or daughter cuz it seems like moms wedding

[@JBUHJBUH]

Loool my own wedding was like that too - even my friends & the MUA ended up asking that question repeatedly to my mother, but she still didn't get the hint!

[@poojamalhotra6321]

Cultural difference. We usually don’t don’t do the whole bridezilla thing.

[@harshitabhuyan8892]

I am so glad they showed some of the little rituals of the actual ceremony.

[@mamatapandey6073]

Yes put a middle eastern music for indian dance so convenient.

[@amelin1612]

😂😂

[@bhuvaneshwarij1326]

Or some random sitar music 🤣

[@XYZ-eq8uw]

Really I was waiting for some bollywood song😅

[@erenestawanjiru1935]

This Mum Should Be My Wedding Planner ...She's Got It

[@ShelbyZealand]

Is one month to send the invites not cutting it a bit close?

[@averymackemble2795]

they may have had save the dates?

[@cleoc136]

Indian weddings are beautiful...never saw one so lavish.

[@matthewschnarrs6099]

If the invitations cost 15 grand I can’t imagine what the whole thing cost

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

I was thinking the same thing

[@texascrazydoglady190]

NO kidding. I wonder if a brides family is solely responsible for all wedding expenses. And she has a sister too. Does 2nd sister get the same grandness?

[@missmurda90]

Gosh I love Indian brides!!! They always look incredible!!!
