Every woman dreams of having the perfect wedding. Be it something lavish or something super intimate, every girl knows exactly what she wants for her wedding. However, as Indian women when we get married, we marry into a family and not just to the guy. This means that there are going to be ten people standing on your head with their own ideas. Now, as much as you would prefer that people just let you do your own thing you know that's not going to happen. You're going to have people trying to shove their ideas down your throat. So, if like most other brides you too are facing some pre-wedding dilemmas, here's what you can do to solve them.

Yes, we all know that according to 'traditions' it's bad luck for the dulha to see his dulhan's lehenga before the wedding but do you really actually believe that? If you get a say in what your groom is going to be wearing, shouldn't he get a say in what you should wear? And if the two of you coordinate, you'll end up with better looking attires.

Not all of us are Priyanka Chopra girls. We can't have 2 weddings and 4 receptions. We've got one wedding and wouldn't it be better to just wear your lehenga throughout it? You've definitely put thought into buying the lehenga so maybe just show it off throughout the ceremonies.

We're sure your parents will go above and beyond for you to have the wedding day of your dream but is it really worth pouring all their hard money and yours down the drain? We're not saying that you should opt for something super intimate but at least make sure that you don't end up wasting money unnecessarily.

One of the biggest dilemmas a bride-to-be can face is the fact that her to-be mother-in-law wants to come wedding shopping with her. Now, that's okay if you have similar tastes but if you hate what she likes and she hates what you like then yikes! So, be smart and do your own research first. You could just take her to stores that you know will work in your favour. Or you could subtly keep showing her the kind of things you like. This way she'll also get an idea of what your likes and dislikes are.

Well, maybe he's gotten cold feet or he just isn't the planning type. Maybe he feels more comfortable with you taking the charge in this situation. Just have an honest conversation with him about this and ask him what parts of the entire affair he'd be comfortable handling. This way he might feel motivated to help out. And if you're still feeling uncomfortable handing things by yourself, you two could always just hire wedding planners to help you out.

Okay, say you have this really annoying uncle who keeps pestering everyone and you know it's going to be a nuisance to have him there. So, either just speak to your partner and your parents and don't invite this uncle or if for courtesy reasons you're forced to invite him, ask a friend to keep him busy. Some tequila shots should put him to sleep soon enough for him to keep his nose out of everybody else's business.

Honestly, in this age of online shopping with so many options available, maybe you should just stick to renting a lehenga. Buying one will obviously cost a lot and also keep in mind that you'll probably never wear it again. When you rent a lehenga, you'll end up looking absolutely gorgeous (even designer lehengas will be affordable) and you'll know that you don't have to worry about where you'll get to wear it again.
