Like with all ventures, there is a tricky side when doing something like this. We maintain Tie The Thali daily along with our full time jobs, and the amount of work it takes to run a blog and inspiration page, was not something we were prepared for. Apart from having to curate and schedule posts for the Instagram and Website, we also have to deal with numerous correspondences. We have people contacting us for suggestions, those who seek advice, and those who have general feedback. This is something we really enjoy engaging in because all of these correspondences have been learning opportunities for us. We even had a bride approach us with the question of what type of Thali to wear in her mixed Hindu/Catholic ceremony and we were able to put out an anonymous post seeking advice from our readers/followers. In one way or another, we are able to help you or direct you to appropriate contacts, thanks to our network at Tie The Thali.

We learned to collaborate with those all around the world who are part of the wedding industry in any way possible, whether it be couples, saree vendors, jewellery vendors, photographers - you name it - we have a platform for it all. There are so many creative weddings that people of our communities pull off across the world. How can this not be shared? With couples, we like to share wedding/engagement shoot/ engagement party/reception, etc. We find that couples who have gone through an event always have the best advice in terms of what to look out for when planning your own event. Believe it or not - we actually learn a lot through what our couples tell us because we get to relive their wedding days through them. We’ve featured many couples and their stories from around the world such as India, Malaysia, Singapore, United Kingdom, Canada and so much more. We can’t wait to show you many more features we have ready to be published.

Believe it or not we actually learn a lot through what our couples tell us because we get to relive their wedding days through them.
