And, let there be shopping !

With 42 days to go for the first set of events, this is what I am done with. Sarees, in the first phase.

Colors picked - Pale blue and Bottle Green, in that order for the engagement ceremony. And one more - Grey, which will fall under the wedding list though.

What people said : 

Honestly, people weren't that happy with the selection, except mom. She was more than happy for both the colors and the price.

S's mom (and dad, too, I guess) felt, I should be picking up brighter colors and costlier stuff. However, the sarees I liked lay in the price range of the cheaper category. I really do not mind the low price, which isn't actually low atleast for me, coz the colors were pretty. 

I sensed utter disappointment, when I sent the pics to P. She was like, they are way too simple for a bride-to-be and looked more like cotton than silk, especially the blue one. I am hoping she will change her mind, atleast a lil, after seeing them.

S never bothered to even mention about it. However, I decided I should atleast push it on him even if he doesn't venture himself and so I sent him the pics and prompted a comment or two. All in vain. I ended up suggesting shades he should be picking that will go with my saree.

>Introducing SR - One person I can rely on to be there by my side with no conditions applied. We can talk about everything under the sky, bitch about each other and others, and still put up with each other, no matter what. I wish things remain the same as now, forever and beyond.<

I should say, I was surprised, when he enquired about the colors and all. Just like me, he liked the blue one, big time. Interesting.
