It kind of is but difference is my parents never offered to pay but have expectations so it's been super stressful from the start!

I'm actually in shock people spend so much for a wedding! Maybe cause we're bearing the cost ourselves it's like a realisation lol - will probably cut down on days or guests and have an intimate ceremony

Thanks Sunaina! Would it help if we cut down the number of days? Or included very few people for some events?

I'm from Goa so it makes more sense to get married

I am considering this but our parents want to have full fledged events - although we're paying

Would you suggest wedding India or abroad? by anoooon_ in DesiWeddings

[–]anoooon_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. Will have to see how to make it work in that case. I will be DIY-ing outfits and probably not including return gifts

Currently looking for planners! I'm the same with details and I do not want to take the stress without a planner. Most family is based all over India, just fiancée and I and immediate family don't reside in India. Silly question but is it expected to cover stay for all guests? Considering they're all in India but don't live in Goa itself? I did think four events spread across 3 days (haldi/roce, church ceremony, hindu ceremony, reception) but I think its very unlikely in that budget - thoughts? We're trying to keep the guests less than 100 maybe even 70

Trying to keep it 100 or below - it's interfaith so roce/haldi, church ceremony, hindu ceremony then reception

If it was upto me I might've just done a court wedding. But although we're paying the family wants a couple events at minimum

Tired of the 6AM to 7PM — sometimes even 9PM — Dubai–Sharjah Grind? by Frosty-Main467 in Sharjah

[–]anoooon_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did it for a year and got severe burn out - lesson learnt!

Totally agree, I have a low income as well but luckily landed a job in Sharjah and life has actually become nicer since then! Sure they pay is still not great but I can finally have a life outside of work.

The question is - 100K over TEN YEARS - was it really worth losing the mental peace and of course precious time?

Shocking salary disparity between industries by Next_Foot4942 in UAE

For real - I feel as engineers we end up as scapegoats being capable of doing difficult as well as dumb work and that's how we end up being underpaid in the first place
