Are we there yet??

3 months & 3 days spent in India, preparing for project wedding..

5 days left for project wedding to ceremoniously begin..

I'm not counting days. I'm not a freaked out!

My friends told me, preceeding their wedding days, they couldn't believe they're tying the knot, their misconception was unveiled during their wedding. Plain stupid, that's what I thought. What did you think whilst planning for your own wedding?? Answer: Plan as though it's an important wedding, needn't be yours! I'll let you in, that's my answer, out of experience. Coz plain stupidly, I too get surprised when I realise I'm saying kabool pretty soon..

Planning is the easiest! Involves no brawn power. It's the execution that kills you for your pleasures. (Literally & figuratively). Ghaghra-choli's, loads of dainty shoes, accessories & more.. I'm a spoilt brat! And, I can only hope my husband entertains me in the future.. :) Phase 2 proceeded into gift wrapping. Felt like Henry Ford would be impressed by this portable solo human assembly machine producing 30 wrapped, ribboned gifts per hour.. Ok, you caught me, Im exaggerating... just a wee bit. Phase 3 was scribbling the invitee's names on the wedding card & thinking you've the best hand writing in the world. Final phase. Doming the home. This is where my town, Banswara (previous post), my wedding settee comes in the picture. I've uninhabited my house here for a long long time. Setting up the place & stretching our patience as the (breadth) x (width) x (height) of the house was, in plain words, taxing.. My parents, though, worked through most of this latter part, whilst I held up as the obedient kid-on-the-block.

The wedding, as per plan, can last for days. But marriage, as per consistent & sheer love, labour & laughter, when blessed & worked out right, can last a life time. Life is about unpredictability, & despite our insatiable curiosities, it's the most beautiful to be surprised that way. I'm walking slowly into this mist, waiting for (God willingly) the pleasantries ahead. And I won't be counting days. Just kidding, I am on it already.. :)
