Did you know?

In India and other countries with a Hindu culture it is considered bad luck for the bride and groom to see each other for several days before the wedding. As part of the marriage ceremony the bride’s parents wash the couple’s feet with milk and water as a symbol of purifying them for the journey of their new life together. As part of the ceremony the couple holds in their hands grains of rice and oats and green leaves, signifying wealth, good health and happiness.

Say What?

The calculator worked out well for me overall; I'm going to use it to try and get my FI to spend less money on other people's wedding presents! Not that I'm trying to be cheap but he's in school full-time and I have a fairly low-paying job. Problem is that we used to live in NYC, he used to have a good job, and his friends all have good jobs so he still wants to keep up with the Jones'.
