White Aisle | Wedding and Event Planner from Nagaland

Tell me about it – I’ve had friends who would plan their wedding ever since their senior school days. Everything seem so well planned – from their wedding dress, wedding song, food and for some, even the vows. But when the day really came for them, I’ve had more phone calls and 11th hour – 1 AM conversations with the frantic bride-to-be asking the same question: ‘Can someone help me out in the planning?’ Most of us here come from huge families so planning a wedding do involve a lot opinions, choices and more confusions – so the whole process is often chaotic and painful!

Also I found out though a friend that we can now buy Amonar tea online! Just go to www.placesoforigin.in [link here]. Let me pour another cup – this time, let me try the lemongrass flavored green tea . .
