I finally got a chance to upload the pictures from the wedding that Mr,custom bobbleheads. Bee and I attended in Chicago 2 weeks ago. This was my first time attending an Indian/Muslim wedding so I was really excited.
This is the out of town bag that was waiting for us at our hotel check-in counter. It had 2 bottles of water, 2 granola bars, a Chicago post card, a pack of Chicago Cubs playing cards, 2 pins in their wedding theme, and a bunch of maps, guides and brochures.
On Friday night, we attended the Mehndi ceremony. The room was decorated very colorfully in yellow – I believe yellow is significant and is supposed to be a lucky color.
Here comes the groom!

Our favors – little pouches filled with sugar crystals, almonds, and dates.

Saturday afternoon was spent sightseeing,personalized bobble heads. I had never been to Chicago – it’,personalized bobble heads;s so much cleaner than I expected! A very very nice city indeed,personalized bobblehead. This is the view from the top of the Hancock Tower.
Saturday night – The wedding. This quilt was placed at the entryway of the venue. Various family members created a square each telling a piece of the couple’s story.
A frame beside the quilt indicated who had crafted each square. This square was one of my favorites. It says, “I love you very much but when I get mad I get angry but I don’t mean it or when I hit you. I am very sorry. I hope you forgive me. Remember I really love you!” Haha!
This was another one of my favorites –,personalized bobblehead; the groom’,Bridesmaid Dress for Vintage Wedding;s family created a patch with a picture of the bride and the groom’s family.

The color scheme was a vibrant and beautiful fuschia, orange, and green.
Here comes the bride!
In traditional Indian weddings,., the bride and groom have never seen each other until this very moment. But they are not allowed to look at each directly so the groom peers at his new wife’s reflection in a mirror.
Presenting the new bride and groom!
