Wedding PAKISTAN WEDDING SHOW IS PAKISTAN’S LARGEST WEDDING EXPO, A PLATFORM THAT PROVIDES ALL WEDDING RELATED SERVICES UNDER ONE ROOF. THEY OFFER CONSUMERS A ONE-STOP SHOP SOLUTION SO THEY CAN PLAN THEIR DREAM WEDDING IN ONE GO.
hassaan khalid
managing director of pakistan wedding show: How did you come up with the idea of PWS? The distinct wedding culture is deeply rooted within the Pakistani custom and traditions. Approximately 1.3 million couples wed every year, which breaks down to 3500 weddings a day, making it a multi-billion-rupee industry. There was no formal platform that brought consumer and wedding service providers together – hence the Pakistan Wedding Show. What can we expect from the show? The ultimate solution under one roof for the big day, providing convenience to the consumers at the same time an opportunity for wedding service providers to meet face-to-face with over 100,000 visitors each day. How challenging was it to get so many brands and top designers under one roof? Last year was very challenging as it was the first expo. Some of the brands and designers had participated in international expos had a clear idea as what to expect from the show but for most of them it was something new. We are aiming to do a bigger and a better show this year in order to enhance the experience of both the consumers and the exhibitors. 26

HSY
DESIGNER & PATRON “Being in the fashion industry for more than 25 years and working closely with many brides over the years who didn’t have a onestop shop solution to explore and plan for their weddings, Pakistan Wedding Show offers a fantastic opportunity for every bride-to-be to plan their whole wedding A-to-Z under one roof! When it comes to weddings, there are endless requirements with a constant need for attention to detail and PWS comes as the perfect platform to cater to all these needs.”
AHMED ANWAR MARKETING MANAGER AT INTERWOOD:
“Lifewares by Interwood is showcasing their newly launched wedding packages for beds, dining and sofas with great discounts and free gifts at Pakistan Wedding Show.”
Planners Mehreen Syed
SPOKESPERSON & MODEL
“I am thrilled to be representing this iconic platform. Weddings are a massive affair in Pakistan and a wedding expo such as the Coca-Cola Pakistan Wedding Show, which meets every need of a bride or wedding party available under one roof, is the ultimate solution for every bride to be able to turn their dream wedding into a reality.”
Aminah Zayaan Zarmisha Dar
EXHIBITING DESIGNER
“This is my second year taking part in Pakistan Wedding Show. The first year went really and we are hoping that this year will be even better! Visitors will be able to view our latest collection at PWS and book appointments.”
MAKEUP ARTIST AT TONI & GUY
“PWS is shaping up to be on a par with international exhibitions so we are thrilled to be taking part this year!”

DESIGNER'S DREAM
Nadia Ellahi is a homemaker turned designer, who with her creative mind, aesthetic sense and artistic vision is already making her mark in the fashion industry.

Did u stumble upon your career or was it something that you always wanted? I got married at a very young age and had kids right away so my career wasn't exactly on my mind. I always enjoyed designing my own clothes; people complimented & appreciated my creations and sense of style. A lot of friends & family encouraged me to design. At first I was reluctant but once I started, the sense of satisfaction achievement was amazing. In 2009 I had my first exhibition which was an absolute success, from then on there was no turning back. What was your aha moment ? When I saw my first shoot in a magazine, I realised that my passion and artistic vision for fashion designing should be my career. Did you ever think about changing your career? I never did, I absolutely love what I do, Alhamdolillah.
ticked off your bucket list? Sky diving is one thing I want to do. What does nobody tell you about being the boss? Mastering the skill to handle the worst in the best possible way is the most important personality trait for one to be a good boss. Name one boss lady that you admire? Queen Elizabeth is one boss lady I admire. Her strength and wisdom inspires me. It's amazing how at a young age she managed such a great responsibility and till now she has handled it all with grace and dignity.
“GRATITUDE RECIPROCATES AND POSITIVE ATTITUDE HELPS YOU FIND YOUR SUCCESS.”
When was the last time you felt discouraged? Alhamdolillah i haven’t experienced that as yet .May Allah bless me with wisdom and more talent to always give my best and to create more and more fabulous designs.
Describe a day in your life? My normal day basically revolves around my work & family. From morning till late afternoon I am occupied with tasks at the office & studio, after that I'm busy with my kids. Since I live with my in-laws, after dinner I sit with them and discuss our day over a cup of green tea.
To me a Boss lady is : A woman with a vision, who is focused to achieve her goals in life with a strong and positive attitude! Someone who is not only good at business but is also a great homemaker and knows how to keep her family and friends happy.
What was the best advice your mentor gave you? My mentor told me to always be positive and which world leader would u like to grateful towards everything in life. Gratitude have dinner with? reciprocates and positive attitude helps you find your Queen Elizabeth for sure. success. what advice would u give to young What are the top 3 things u cherish in girls? life If you focus on your dreams with positivity and My family, my work and my friends. gratitude, the universe will help you find your success. What is #1 thing that is yet to be 2018

behind the Camera the videograp hers How did the videographers come to life? It honestly started out a joke. We were studying theater, TV and film at BNU. This is about 11 years ago, when a degree in filmmaking was a relatively new concept. Whenever we'd tell people what we were studying, we'd get strange and funny responses. One that stuck was, "filmmaking parh ker kya shaadi ki filmain banao gay?" Somehow the idea stuck and urged on by another professor of ours, we came up with The Videographers, sitting in our friend's room. What is the inspiration behind the company? A couple of things put together served as the inspiration. Firstly, the cinematic landscape of Pakistan drastically needed a makeover. Thank God, our industry has come a long way since. Secondly, these was a growing demand within our youth for exciting content; be it wedding videos or branded or non-branded films. We not only wanted to be the supply but we wanted to do it with innovation and that’s what we've been striving to do. Tell us about what exactly you do? We initially tapped into the market with a view to change how weddings are covered in Pakistan. After introducing many new ideas in wedding coverage and making a name for ourselves we ventured into other areas. Along with event coverage, we now also do corporate films and in-house thought provoking content through TVGTV. Apart 50

We are really looking forward to having the same strength for our Karachi office that recently opened to public. What is your dream project? To work on a film project - from beginning to end - with either Wes Anderson or Quentin Tarantino. What is your brand philosophy? It’s quite simple, really. To never stagnate and to keep inventing, innovating a having fun with work while at it! What would you like to say to our followers? To never give up on your dreams, no matter how crazy they are. It’s a struggle, but it’s so worth it when you achieve them!

bff ’ s Lovers come and go, but best friends are here to stay! You have had your best most memorable, stomach hurting laughs with them. They have an uncanny way of reading your mind. They keep you focused, pick you up when you are down and are always there which is simply priceless. You may be hating them sometimes but that’s only because you love them. We get two best friends to tell us what they love and hate about each other.

Our fab astrologer Zahid Haider, styles up your stars. Find out what’s in store for you this week!
For your in-depth weekly forecast call 0322-757-5219 E-mail: happyhaider65@gmail.com
ARIES (MAR. 21- APRIL 20) With a number of retrogrades in force, it would be no surprise if you found it difficult to make as much progress as you’d like. And with fiery Mars, your guide planet, now back into Capricorn, you might feel very eager concerning your career or personal responsibilities
SCORPIO (OCT. 24 - NOV. 22) Dynamic Mars, your co-ruler, is now in Capricorn and your sector of talk and thought, which could be your chance to get up to speed with paperwork and administrative tasks. If you have any deadlines looming, you can see to them as well. Whatever responsibilities you may have pushed to one side can now be tackled with a little more enthusiasm.
TAURUS (APR. 21- MAY 21) With dynamic Mars back in Capricorn and your sector of far horizons until September 10, you might get a second bite at the cherry. Even though feisty Mars is currently retrograde, an opportunity to travel, study, or work abroad could come your way again.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 23 -DEC. 21) Dynamic Mars has moved back into your financial sector, and it will remain here until September 11, so the coming weeks could be your chance to sort out a matter that has been causing some anxiety.
GEMINI (MAY 22-JUNE 21) Chatty Mercury, your personal planet, continues in your sector of communication. However, as it’s slowing down prior to turning direct this weekend, caution would be wise. Inquisitive Mercury can bring additional delays and frustrations when it changes direction, which is why it would help to stay alert over the days ahead.
CAPRICORN (DEC 22.- JAN. 20) You might get a second chance at an opportunity with fiery Mars back in your sign now. If it does come around again, there could be some delay before things get going, but you can at least register your interest. Determined Mars will forge ahead on August 27, and it might be that things will gradually begin to take off at that time.
CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22) As eloquent Mercury forges a tie with lovely Venus in your home zone over this week, what seems like a bargain may not be. If you’re tempted by an item, it might be better to wait until next week before purchasing it.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 21.- FEB. 19) The focus on your sector of relating continues this week, so you could still be under the influence of last week’s solar eclipse in this zone. And with eloquent Mercury slowing in preparation for turning direct this coming weekend, it might be just as well to wait before you make any important decisions.
LEO (JULY 23-AUG 22) As talkative Mercury slows down this week prior to turning direct this weekend, you might experience further delays and frustrations. And with other retrogrades in play, this isn’t a time to rush into anything. Instead, it’s better to have patience and take a steady approach. This is an opportunity to clear away anything that may be blocking your progress. Doing so can enable you to make great strides over the coming weeks. VIRGO (AUG. 23 -SEPT. 23) Beautiful energies that pervade your chart this week link to your relationship zone and social sector, and they could certainly enhance your love life, too. With positive Jupiter aligning with idealistic Neptune, you might easily see the best in people, and this can immediately help to forge special bonds LIBRA (SEPT. 24 -OCT. 23) eisty Mars, your relationship planet, has moved back into Capricorn and your family sector, so this can be an opportunity to clear up any unfinished business.
PISCES (FEB. 20-MAR. 20) A positive aspect between expansive and dreamy Neptune in your sign is at its peak, which could inspire you to get away from it all and enjoy a peaceful vacation. This might be just a short break or you could plan something longer.
