The Mumbai Bride Diaries: 3 Months to Go!

Hey guys,

If you are new to my blog, check out all the bridal diaries posts and updates HERE.

I wanted to update you all with a 4 months remaining post and what all I am done with, from the things which were pending in my 6 months post HERE, but I have no idea where time is flying! Like literally flying.

So ya, exactly 3 months to go now. I still can’t believe it!

Things Done from the ‘things I had to do’ mentioned in the 6 months post 😀

• Done with most of my trousseau shopping. Rushing to the tailors and all these days.
• Got my gharchoda from Khatri and panetar i.e the wedding sarees. Yes, we need to wear two together.
• Nothing on the weight front yet :/ God, I just have 3 months and I have’nt started with anything yet.
• Done with the honeymoon bookings
• Done with the photographer and videographer bookings
• Bangles and Dupatta are pending. I got the white chooda part though.
• Got a nice sela with paithani work from Ratanshi Kheraj. The entire work comes on the front when the saree is worn Gujurati style.
• Yet to find a nice gown for the DJ
• Done with the gold and diamond jewellery shopping too.

I buy my diamonds from Manubhai Jewellers in Mumbai. I think they are the best in Mumbai when it comes to diamonds and the designs they have are more than any other store in Mumbai.

In addition, I got some nice golden leg thongs (the one which are tied up like anklets but connect to the second toe like haathphool) and a pretty rose gold clutch from the World Trade Center exhibition. I am planning to wear the leg thongs during the wedding. Also, I got nice gold Inc.5 weddingey shoes.

Also bought sarees and dresses and few dresses from the boy’s side too. Few are semi stitched, so have to get them stitched. Got one white and pink pretty chaniya choli. Even that was semi stitched, have already given that for stitching.

Next week, going to Gaurang, the famous guy who designs and stitches designer blouses for gharchoda since I don’t know how many years. (Pink Lady in Ghatkopar) I have heard a lot about him. I would be getting my morning mandva sela and gharchoda blouse designed by him.

I stocked on some basic lingerie during the Marks & Spencer sale. Have to get a few more things. You must have seen the bikini and chemise I got HERE. Also have some stuff from La Senza (Love this blue one from the Show Off Collection..my first La Senza :p ). Planning to buy a few more things like a multi way bra, pasties, etc.,you know how the backless and deep back cholis,etc are.

I know I have to do a bridal makeup artists and photographers in Mumbai post since a long time. I will definitely do it, caught up with a lot of things right now.

Also, yours truly is nominated for the ELLE Beauty Awards Blogger of the Year 2014. Our first challenge was a braided look. If you can please spare a second to vote me HERE, I did be thankful 🙂
