Wedding Light Lingo's

Think lighting your wedding reception site means flipping on a light switch? If you want to turn your wedding site from standard to simply stunning, you’ll probably need to take a more illuminating approach to your decor. “Lighting creates a mood,” says event designers of TajWeddingServices, and when it’s done well, lighting can make everything — including your wedding flowers, cake, and guests — look better. We will now let you know some of the lighting Lingo’s which might be helpful for you to express your wedding planners, what you want for your special day.

Lighting Lingo’s::

Pin spot A focused beam of light that shines directly onto an object, like a centerpiece or wedding cake, as a highlight effect.

Color wash There are a few different types of light fixtures that can create a “wash,” which is basically a blanket of colored light covering an entire area.

Gobos Circular stencils that are put over a light to project a design or pattern. Popular gobo designs are monograms, dates, or any other wedding motifs. The complexity of the design will affect the gobo’s cost — a simple stencil can be stamped out of steel, while a more intricate design must be laser etched out of stainless steel or a glass that can withstand high heat (costing much more than a stamped stencil).
Led Short for light-emitting diodes, LED lights are currently popular for weddings because they use much less electricity (and don’t get as hot) than regular, incandescent light bulbs. This means they can sometimes be wireless, so they’re even that much more discreet. LEDs are great for color changes and vibrant colors. They’re also common in strands and good for accent lighting.

Bride's To Do List


Consider the jewellery you are wearing in other wedding & pre-wedding events.
Most brides want thier wedding cermony look to be their highlight, so ensure that your wedding jewellery is different to what you wear on your other wedding events.
Ways to vary your jewellery at your wedding events:
  1. Headpieces: vary your headpieces between: jhoomer, Pakeezah jhoomer, matha-patti, tikka, nothing. E.g. If you are wearing a jhoomer on your wedding cermony, consider wear a matha-patti on your medhi.
  2. On a pre-wedding event consider wearing just earrings & a head piece, as you are the bride do go for quality to set you able all but as ur buying less ur budget can be used to opt for better quality items! E.g. just big earrings and a tikka OR earrings and matha patti (this is really nice, as only the bride wears a matha-patti but by wearing only with earrings gives the matha patti a modern twist and looks geat for a pre-wedding cermoy!)
  3. Size, Quality, Colour... of course.
Tell your chosen retailer what you want. All reputable retails will want to sell you what you want instead of pushing sets onto you. Tell the retailer what you want and if they are not interested, consider going elsewhere! It is not always possible to get what you want, but at the very least you deserve to be served by someone who will at least try.

Be open to suggestions. I know I said decide what you want, but be aware that good retails know about latest fashions. So take photos of your outfit, show them to the retailer and ask what they would suggest. We recommend showing photos as you can e-mail them to online retailers, such as us, but also it's a lot safer taking a photo out shopping that your actual outfit (one bride sadly damaged her outfit while out shopping, it's easily done!)

Purchase the set of your dreams. Having done the above we hope this leads you to buying the perfect set for you

Wedding Decorations


When you say “I do,” what are you hoping your surroundings look like?

A lot of brides-to-be hope for a beach wedding, which can be great way of getting married. You could aim for an actual on-the-sand ceremony, or you could do something like this — have your wedding within the comfortable confines of a beachfront hotel. You won’t accidentally get some uncomfortably large man sunbathing in an uncomfortably small swimsuit(or, heaven forbid, in nothing at all!) in your wedding pictures, but you still get the sunshine and refreshing salty air of a beach wedding.

Above, the decorator used a classic arch and just covered it with flowers. For draping the seats along the aisle, the decorator used tulle and gathered it underneath pretty purple and white arrangements. Of course, one caveat to beach weddings would be the wind.





Of course, many brides also dream about a garden wedding. This gardens can have a cool dome that the decorator can rim with flowers. The decorator can also cover all the pillars, including the ones placed alongside the aisle, with flowy chiffon. Pink and white flower arrangements sit on top each aisle pillar and the couple’s initials — A and M — are laid out artfully with red, pink and white rose petals in the middle of the aisle.



The flowers used for the above wedding ceremony were all purple phalenopsis orchids. Setting aside how expensive that probably was, they sure do make a big visual impact. The florist used the flower both in the arrangements framing the head of the aisle and in the aisle arrangements. And they had a nice backdrop there — water!



The aisle in this wedding was draped with organza and gathered with red roses, white orchids and lemon leaf. There was no aisle runner, but the edges of the aisle were scattered with pink and red rose petals. The half trellis at the head of the aisle were decorated with branches, white phalenopsis orchids and red roses. Love the branches look!

Things you should keep in mind, before selecting your wedding dress

There are lots to think about when you shop for your wedding dress. As friends look for their own dress, Tajweddingservice, offer advise from our own experience. There are several things that we suggest before you even try a dress on. Here is our advice to you if you’re starting out for the first time:

  1. Understand the different silhouettes, necklines, and price ranges. People will talk “wedding dress talk” to you so it’s easier if you understand what they’re talking about. Wedding Dress Creator lets you play around with dress styles.
  2. Look online a bit to see what strikes your fancy – If you’re motivated, bookmark or print out a couple of dresses to take with you when you go shopping. It’ll help the consultant who is helping you find a dress. Tryweddingchannel.com or brides.com.
  3. Watch wedding shows, like Say Yes to the Dress – set your DVR to watch the new episodes so you can see other brides with your body shape and see what looks good on them.
  4. Check out bridal magazines – look through the bridal magazines at your local bookstore. There’s always articles and ads about what’s the latest fashion.
  5. You should frequently check Wedding Channel’s dress search as it is often found really helpful. you can find a dress that you liked and then the store will carry it for you. In the end, finding the store that carries dress will be quicker than trying to find the dress by going store to store.

Wedding Guest Etiquettes

Withour experience and problems faced [=, Tajweddingservice can provide you with a list of do's and dont's when you go to someones marriage.

There’s a lot of material out there regarding etiquette that the bride and groom should follow, but very little about wedding guest etiquette. If you’ve never been to a wedding before, the whole ordeal can be a bit confusing for the guest as well. Here are a few tips:

1. Reach Venue Spot on time! A lot of guests think “oh it’s a given that I’m going so I don’t need to Reach on time.” It really does help the couple if everyone, including the bridal party, reach late. The couple has a lot of other things to do for the wedding as a whole and chasing you down for your response. Plus, Representatives have deadlines for a reason – venues require final guest counts, placecards need to be made/printed, favors need to be made/ordered, etc

2. Do not ask if you can bring your significant other or a guest to the wedding or rehearsal dinner. If your significant other is invited to anything, the couple will make sure you know. Think about the awkward situation you’re placing the couple in when you ask if you can bring your significant other or a guest. First, you are asking that the couple or their parents or whoever pay for your significant other’s dinner/presence. Second, if the couple decided not to invite your significant other, there’s probably a good reason (e.g., they can’t afford it). As much as the couple should be honored by your attending their wedding, you, as a guest, should be honored that you were asked to attend such an important event in their lives.

3. Leave checks blank. Or just write one of the couple’s names on it. Most people probably don’t realize this, but if you write out a check to both names (or with the wrong last name), some banks won’t deposit the check unless both names are on the account (which may not be true for some couples). Also, you might think that the name you know them by is legally their name, but it might not be. For example, if someone goes by a nickname or the bride doesn’t change her last name (*gasp* yes, it happens). It’s awkward for the couple to go back to those who graciously gave gifts and ask them for a redo.

4. Appreciate the bride and groom. Planning a wedding is no joke. A lot of time, effort, and money go into planning a wedding. Try to show your appreciation, even for the little stuff, that the couple has done to make this day fun and enjoyable for you. Hopefully, the couple appreciates the time, effort, and money it took for you to attend their big day.
