"The most hectic place to ever be is the middle of a wedding!"

PRE- WEDDING PREP: (1) 

> 2 months, 3 weeks till the wedding 

The whole house was up and everyone was talking and chatting as if no one had work to attend to  

"Shumayll! Did you call Saleha?" asked Loriza and Shumayll nodded 

"She will be here any moment, she was with the wedding photographers- they will be doing pre wedding photos too" said Shumayll before running off to his chachu's call 

"Oh Allah, we have so much to do! Where is my checklist?!" said Chachi, asking her sons for it 

Aarib shrugged and Aariz handed her the iPad which has the checklist 

"Bhabhi, where is Iqra?" asked Chachi and Loriza nodded upstairs 

meanwhile, upstairs in the girls den, Iqra was seated across Ruqayyah with Nabaahat and Nafaasat seated adjacent to them and Huma seated on the chair near the bed, checking up the flowers 

"Orchids?" asked Huma and the girls considered it 

"Lets go outside and walk around as we think" said Ruqayyah and everyone nodded 

Iqra stood up and stretched, smiling at the fact that Shumayll would be downstairs 

the girls walked downstairs to see everyone in a hectic mode 

"Why is everyone in a hectic mode? is something wrong?" asked Iqra and chachi smiled at her 

"No no, honey its all about the wedding, we want to get majority of it over this month and coming month so that June is free for us- plus the engagement party is coming up in two weeks, that needs to be set up too" she explained to Iqra who stared at her in amusement 

"At this point, i am so so glad i have all of you here!" said Iqra hugging her sisters tight 

"We are glad too!!!" they yelled back 

"Alright girls, lets go-" said Nabaahat but before they could leave Saleha entered 

"Oh thank god i found you all- i need to update my checklist, so i need the bride and groom along with the maid of honor (MOH), bridesmaids, Best Man and groomsmen and the parents of the bride and groom to follow me" said Saleha and everyone nodded 

They walked to the study where Saleha powered her IPad and opened her checklist 

"Alright, since i was not here, and some of the details are being run through by you all, i need a background check on everything- we have 2 months and 2 weeks till the wedding- we need to decide some things now and if you have decided, let me fill in!" she explained 

Saleha took her job seriously, according to her, it was part of her job to give people their dream and she would not compromise with that 

"Lets run through the checklist, shall we?" she asked and everyone gladly agreed 

"Alright- if its done, say check and tell me the details to fill in" she said and everyone again agreed 

it was no doubt Saleha was very efficient 

Iqraam was at the back, seated with Ruqayyah on the floor leaning on his legs. He teased her by poking her sides and pulling her hijab but much to his annoyance, his wife gave him no response
