My Wedding Jewels (Part 1) - Wedding Update 2

In india weddings are not completely fullfilled without drowning the bride in all those precious gold ornaments...These jewels are so elegant and charming and makes the whole wedding a blast..During my school or college days i was not that fond of gold ornaments or stuffs like that..There are times when i thought " what is this stupid culture of buying lots of jewels and wasting a whole lot of money in that, This is too bad"..But now i am getting to know the real fact..If it is a wedding specially in india, there must be golds, it is something so special.

Even now when someone meet me the first thing which they ask me is "JEWELS VANGIYACHA( Have you purchased jewels)". If i say no not yet..Then they will see me in some weird look and tell me "not yet, get soon..only few days for the wedding..right"...I was a kind of worried because of this questions and started bugging amma about that. Finally its all done.Yes we have finished purchasing all those gold.YAY...Wedding blast has started...

Like the clothes shopping experience, i have a unique experience while i went for purchasing my wedding jewels..Oneday amma told me 'why don't we go to those jewellery shops and see some design and collection for you, so that we can get some nice collections at the end'...I told ok we can go..Amma, my two perimma(aunts) and me got ready for that and we went to one of our trust old jewellery shop. 

At first i was not so interested in that, but later i got so overwhelmed and started searching so seriously..I have a great addiction towards bangles, so we first checked into the bangle section..That seller was so enthusiastic and started giving me lots of set of bangles to wear..When we finished our shopping my hand was red in colour and even a little of my outer skin is broken..I must have worn and removed over 200 bangles that day..OMG..

Ok coming to the matter..I was interested in some bangles so we thought "ok lets get into this, we can finish our whole jewels shopping in this shop itself"..This is a sudden decision....We selected few bangles and went to the chains and other stuff section..And finally we finished our whole shopping..And now comes the fun part, We have bought jewels worth more than a million, but we don't have a single penny to pay them..YES we just came here just to see new collections right...Then how would we have money to pay them..My aunt went and told the owner of that shop to " We didn bring any money today, Can you please keep all these jewels with you, we will get it tomorrow after paying the money"..But the owner who is a friend of our family told us "Don't play..Please take it..You can give us money later..Its not a problem..Do you want security untill you reach your home.."and he started laughing..Such a sweet seller right..

So we came home safe and sound with a million worth gold without paying even a single penny to them ...How cool is that..This is how my shopping for jewels went on...
 
But believe it or not purchasing million worth gold took us only 2 hours...Isn't that weird..I am such a express shopper...

Now comes the picture part..I want to share you some of the pictures of my jewels which we bought...Starting with the bangles..

All these bangles are my selection...I totally adore them..Specially the one with peacock design is my favorite.. I love the white stone studded bangle in the first picture too..



Will post the other pictures of my jewels in my new post.....
