marriage-relationships

When you are thinking too serious about someone special in your life, you start making a lot of plans about your future. But, it is important to think before things became really hot between you two. You must have shared many thoughts and dream with him/her, but it is equally important to know his/her views and thoughts on the same before you take the next step in life. It is important to know and check that you are on the same page and you are thinking alike. Is he/she also feeling the same what you are feeling for him/her? Therefore, it becomes more important to ask a few important questions to understand what he/she feels about you and your special relationship.

What are his/her future plans?: You should always ask this question to that someone special before you create your own fairy tale with him/her. Ask what he/she thinks about you? What are his/her future plans with you? It is important to know what he/she feels about you and keeping your future in mind as future couple. If he/she thinks that you two should remain as good friends as you are today, then you should hold your emotions back and move on.

Is he/she is ready for commitment: This is another big question in front of those who are in a relationship. You love to be with each-other. You love to spend more time together, but you don’t want to make any commitment or promises in relationship. You are happy with your open relationship where you have fewer expectations and liabilities towards each-other.

What is cheating for you?: This is another important question to ask him/her before you became serious in the relationship. What he/she thinks about cheating and what will be their reaction and something similar he/she will face in the future? For some people online intimacy or chatting with someone is acceptable, but some people will count it as cheating. Therefore, it becomes more important to know how he/she will react if something similar happens in the future.

Do you mind to accept this relationship publicly?  Ask him/her that whether he/she would mind to discuss about your relationship with anyone. There are many people who don’t like to discuss about their relationship with anyone else. There are many people who don’t want to make their relationship public and always want to keep it secret.

Is he/she ready to face any worse situation for you?: Making commitment is one thing and taking a strong stand for your commitment is another thing. Is he/she ready to stand for your relationship if things go south in the future? Is he/she ready to face anything for survival of your relationship? If he/she also feels equally strong about this relationship or he/she is ready to stand by you in all the circumstances, then you need not to worry about this relationship and its future.

Is there is something which you should know?: This is another important thing which you should consider before taking a next step in your relationship. Ask is there something which you should know before getting serious about this relationship. Is there something which you should know before taking this relationship to next level, be it about his/her past, family, any other past relationship or something which might affect your future?

Wedding Venue Decoration

Indian wedding is considered as big-fat wedding. The wedding industry is growing with the YoY growth of 20%. Most of the people spend more than 60% of their savings in the wedding of their kids. As Indian, we believe in spending lavishly in the wedding of our kids. Wedding in the family is all about celebrations and luxury spending. But, there are still a set of people who want to spend logically and don’t want to waste money on the wedding preparations. Are you also among those who want to spend logically and save money on wedding venue decoration? Here, we are sharing some smart tips with you to save money on your wedding decoration cost.

Decide your budget: Before deciding the decoration, the first thing you should think and decide is overall budget for wedding venue decoration. Decide the minimum and maximum budget for your decoration. Deciding a budget in advance can help in getting the best deals from the vendors. As you know your maximum spending limit, therefore, there are less chances of over spending.

Discuss your budget with florist: Before you finalize any decoration, ask for the expenses. Discuss about your overall spending budget to the florist and ask the vendor to provide you solutions within the budget only. It will help the florist to provide you the best solutions without exceeding the budget.

Think about seasonal flowers: To decorate your venue within your budget, it is always important that you should always think about seasonal flower decorations. Seasonal flowers will be less expensive and easily available. You need not to pay extra money for it. Besides, you will get a great deal on seasonal flowers because of high supply. But, if you will decide something out of box or off seasonal flowers then you will surely pay extra money for it.

Minimize costly flowers: This is another good option to minimize your decoration cost. Avoid or minimize the usage of costly flowers. It will help in reducing the overall budget of the decoration. If you choose costly flowers for overall decoration, then obviously you are required to pay more money compared to using the seasonal flowers.  If you are really keen to use some specific flower, use it smartly to fit into your budget.

Think about just two types of flowers: To decorate your wedding venue within the budget, it is important that you use only two or maximum three types of flowers rather than using multiple flowers for decoration. Furthermore, if you buy single flower in bulk for the decoration, then you can negotiate for the price. Single or double color combination flower decoration is the best option to save money.

Use natural surrounding: If you have booked a party farm or some open place for your wedding, then use the natural surroundings of the place. Use the natural greenery smartly to minimize your decoration cost. If the place is well maintained with plants and trees, decorate them with lights and reduce the usage of flowers. Besides, you can also use other props like candles, hanging lamps and other things for decoration to give it a different look.

Think about alternatives: If you think that full flower decoration is a costly affair, think about the alternatives. You can think about some other alternatives for venue wedding decorations. You can either go for partial decoration such as decorating stage and mandap with real flowers and rest of the venue with lights, hangings and artificial flowers. This way you will be able to save some more money on your decoration.

Inter Caste Marriage

Marriage in India is considered as one of the biggest event of once life. If there is someone in marriageable age in the family you always want him/her to get marry in the same caste or community. Why we all the time condemn inter-caster marriage so much? Why we want to marry someone from our own community? We all must have heard this from our parents that we don’t want you to go for inter-caste marriage. We are ok with your love marriage, but not with inter-caste love marriage. This is something really strange that in present tech-savvy world too we consider inter-caste marriage as stigma. Do you think that our generation next too thinks about it in the same manner? Do you think that they also mind about marrying someone from a different caste or community? Here, we are sharing some of the reasons why we still prefer inter-caste marriage and a survey finding what our new generation thinks about inter-caste marriage.

The younger generation believes that there is no harm in marrying someone from a different caste. They don’t mind marrying someone from a different caste if they find him/her compatible. But one the reverse side parents want that their kids should marry within their caste, be it arranged or love marriage.

Rashmi Soni, 28 years, Senior Creative Designer, MNC, Gurgaon said that she does not mind marrying someone from a different caste or community if she will find him understanding and compatible. She also mentioned that her first preference is to find a life partner who is understanding and professionally stable, rather than marrying someone from the same caste who is not at all compatible.

In another conversation with Investment Banker, Anurag Singh, 30 years, shared with us that he too doesn’t mind marrying someone from a different caste if that girl is mature and intelligent. He wants to marry someone who is understanding and prove to be a better-match. For him caste has nothing to do in married life except celebrating festivals differently. But, this is a very small thing in front of other issues which you face if you marry a wrong person.

Lakhshita Tonk, 27 years, working as Financial Analyst with a financial firm in Hyderabad, said that she likes someone in her office and planning to get married soon. He is from a different caste and she mentioned that if there is no problem in working someone from a different community. You can be good friends if you are from different caste why you can’t marry someone from a different caste. She mentioned that understanding and compatibility has nothing to do with caste. This is just a norm which we all follow to get the societal acceptance to our relationship.

Dinesh Garg, 26 years, Senior Risk Management Analyst, CA firm Pune, said that he is working in Pune with a CA firm and earning good. He mentioned that he will not bother much about the caste of his life partner if he finds someone compatible and a perfect match. He wants someone who will be understanding and supportive. He wants someone who understands his professional liabilities and mature enough to handle situation at her own. So, caste is not the main criteria for marriage, but a better match with higher understanding is preferred.

We, also discussed the same topic with parents and here we find that they have a different opinion altogether. However, there are many reasons behind their logic and not supporting inter-caste marriage. Let’s take a look what our senior generation thinks about inter-caste marriage.

Rajat Jha, 54 years, PWD officer, is looking for a match for his daughter. He is looking for a groom from his own caste. He is not in favor of marrying his daughter in different caste. He said that marrying our daughter to different caste will create pressure for her. It will be difficult for her to adjust with new rituals and new things in life. We love to do thing the way we see them from out childhood. It is difficult to follow new rituals and get adjusted. Therefore, he doesn’t want to search someone from a different caste.

Kuldeep Nair, 58 years, Banker is also not convinced with the idea of finding a match for his son/daughter in different caste. He said that it might be it will take some time to find a good match or a perfect match within the community, but it is not difficult. He further mentioned that we are Pandit, we follow certain rituals and traditions which are different from other communities. I don’t want that my daughter or daughter-in-law will follow some different rituals. It will create problem and make life more complicated for the member to get adjusted with new styles and traditions. He further added, if you get married in a different caste you feel like that you are from a different planet and have nothing to say, rather just to follow everything blindly.

Santoshi Mathur, 60 years, Teacher is also not really happy with this changing trend. She said that nowadays, kids are going for love marriage and they prefer to marry someone who is equally qualified, smart, intelligent and compatible. So, they don’t mind marrying someone from a different caste. But, as a parent we know that our society does not easily accept an inter-caste arranged marriage. It will further affect our future search for our other kids. Therefore, she also believes that inter-caste marriage is not a good idea as it reduces of getting a good match within the caste for other kids in the family.

Why you should do inter-caste marriage? Why you should not do inter-caste marriage?
Caste is not the problem in any marriage Social acceptance is lower
You will learn new customs and rituals Lower chances of finding a better match for other kids within community
You feel that now you are part of two different societies Adjustment issues in accepting and learning new customs and  rituals
You feel more connected Cultural differences
You start respecting other customs and make you more mature People still consider it as stigma

Some Most Common Wedding Planning Mistakes We Usually Make

Indian wedding planning

A wedding in the family is one of the biggest events in the family and requires a lot of planning and team work. You can’t handle each and everything on your own. You need help of family members, relatives and at times help of friends to avoid any glitches in the preparation. But, under pressure of preparation and planning we make some mistakes which we could easily avoid if we pay little attention to things. You are supposed to plan various things like shopping, gifts, printing of cards, booking wedding venue and finalizing the menu, etc. All these things require a lot of planning and coordination. In such a hectic situation, there are chances that you will forget something or skip something. We are here sharing some of the common mistakes most of us usually make while planning for wedding.

Not fixing a budget: The first thing you should do while you start planning for your wedding arrangements is fixing the budget. Fixing the overall budget and segmenting the budget is very important. It is important that you fix the budget for everything, be it for shopping, venue, gifts and any other thing. It will help you in getting the overall spending limit and estimating the things in advance. If you will not fix a budget in advance, there are high chances that you end up shedding more money than your actual budget in making all the arrangements.

Finalizing vendor on the basis of quotes: This is another mistake which one should avoid. Asking the price quotes from different vendors is a good move to begin with, but fixing someone on the basis of low quotes is not the right decision. You never want to face any negative comment in wedding planning. You always want everything to be the best for that day. Before finalizing any vendor, it is important to see their previous work. If the vendor has any website, then don’t forget to check the details and see the comments on it.

Not making the guest list properly: Always calculate the guests well. To plan everything well in advance it is important that you make a proper guest list and arrange everything accordingly. Making last minute changes in the list can affect all the arrangements. Make sure that you work upon 10% minus or plus guest list for the wedding day. Make all the arrangements accordingly and instruct your vendor and caterer to make the arrangements as per the list.

Taking too many opinions: It is good to take the second opinion if you are confused, but it is not a wise idea to discuss the same thing with everyone.  The more you discuss, the more you will get confused. Involve your close family members and friends in important decisions. It will help in making the right decision and perfect choices better.

Too high expectations: If you are keeping your expectation too high, it might be you will feel disappointed if you see even a little flaw in the arrangement. It is better to keep your expectations at ground level and get yourself involved in most of the planning part. Don’t expect that your decorator will make the replica of the stage or other things, which you saw in some movie or at some else’s wedding. Let him use his creativity at the best.

Not instructing vendor well: After hiring a wedding planner or vendor, we think that he/she will take care of everything. This is totally wrong. You are the right one who knows your requirements well. No one else could tell the vendor what you want or don’t want in your wedding venue or in food menu or something else. So, give proper instructions to the vendors to avoid any confusion in the expectation and delivery.
