He&#8217;s good about sending emails saying &#8220;you need to do this and that, blah blah.&#8221; But when you ask a question, the answers are somewhat cryptic. As a Groom I feel he should have all questions sent to his best man for answering since he&#8217;s probably busy planning an overseas wedding and all. But that&#8217;s just my opinion. He gave us a run down of the wedding events and this is what it looks like:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Wednesday, 2008 7:30 P.M Ring and Chunni Ceremony followed by Dinner and<br \/>Dance<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Thursday, 2008 Departure of Barat &amp; Serhar<br \/>Bandi: 5:00 p.m Sharp&amp; Will Proceed to the Hotel until 2:00 am <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Friday, 2008 Anand Karaj 11:30 a.m (Ceremony)Lunch 12:30 P.M at Gurudwara Shri Guru Singh Sabha Proceed to Indian Party House for Dinner and Doli 7:30 P.M<\/p>\n<p>Confused? Me too. But I was glad to receive that bit of information so I started doing searches. But what to search on? OK, the ceremony first. What not to wear. Apparently clubbing clothes aren&#8217;t acceptable &#8211; darn, I was hopping to sport my tube top. Actually, since it&#8217;s a religious ceremony, church clothes are called for. Who would have known. And I get to wear a head scarf and NO shoes! I&#8217;m totally down with no shoes. I love it already!<\/p>\n<p>More research lead me to read it being acceptable wearing traditional clothes. And it&#8217;s not just <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sari\">Sari&#8217;s<\/a> my friends. There are many choices here but would it really be acceptable by my friend&#8217;s family? <\/p>\n<p>I asked the groom. Cryptic answer came, &#8220;Call my mom.&#8221; Justin said, &#8220;We spent 6 years at each others houses, she knows me so she&#8217;ll know you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And with so many events, what is the dress code to each? We have no idea. So I placed a call to the Grooms mom. Of course she did know me and she answered all my questions. <\/p>\n<p>Semi-formal, Formal, church clothes, semi-formal. The best part, she seemed really excited when I said I&#8217;d like to dress accordingly to the ceremony (in a <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Shalwar_kameez\">Salwar Kameez<\/a>). So, I&#8217;ve picked <a href=\"http:\/\/utsavsarees.com\/pages\/sarees-large.asp?icode=KGZ301A&amp;ct=&amp;st=&amp;sview=9&amp;x=123&amp;y=8\">one out<\/a> &#8211; special ordered from India. <\/p>\n<p>We only know semi-formal.
