12 Annoying Things That THAT Aunty Will Say at Your Wedding!

At every Indian wedding, you’ll be blessed with the presence of loving family, helping cousins, friends, two-dozen relatives you’ve never met, and of course, that dear aunty who has an opinion about everything. The things she’ll say will irritate every nerve in your body. Our advice: Ignore!

1. You’ve paid a bomb for that designer lehenga, been on a diet for over six months to fit into the cut, but auntyji says, “don’t you think this ghera makes you look fat?”

2. Your reception sari is of a rare peach colour that you’ve been dreaming of wearing, besides spending months looking for that shade. Auntyji thinks, “Beta this shade is so LS, you should’ve chosen some shaadi wala colour na.”

4. You are nervously getting ready for your big day and auntyji keeps barging into the brides’ dressing room with some excuse or the other. She looks at you and says in a very disappointed tone, “Oh ji, lipstick kinni faint hai, apply a few more coats ladki. Use darker shades. It’s your shaadi afterall.”

10. Auntyji thinks the classy trousseau packing done by your friend, who studied at a professional design school is too blah. She says, “You should have told me, my husband’s sister’s daughter’s sister-in-law does it professionally. She would have done it for free if only I had told her.”
