A simple wedding shopping plan

Weddings have many events, so plan in order:

  • Set a budget per event first โ€” see How to Budget for a Wedding in Pakistan.
  • Bridal dress first โ€” boutiques need weeks or months for stitching.
  • Then outfits for each event (mehndi, barat, walima).
  • Then jewellery to match the outfits.
  • Then shoes, bangles and accessories.
  • Last: gifts, salami envelopes and favours.

Tips to save money

Wedding shopping adds up fast.

  • Buy fabric and get it stitched instead of buying ready-made formal wear.
  • Shop in the off-season if you can.
  • Bargain in bazaars, not in designer boutiques.
  • Rent or borrow heavy jewellery for one-off events.
  • Order accessories and gifts from small makers online.
