Make it easy for your friends and family to buy you the perfect wedding gift by setting up a wishlist at ForMyShaadi.com
Bengaluru, January 03, 2016: Looks like the perfect gifting website for the well informed, discerning urban Indian consumer is here. ForMyShaadi.com is India’s first comprehensive wedding gift registry website, specially designed for this new age generation that is now ready to embrace traditional notions with a contemporary and practical approach. Simply put, ForMyShaadi helps engaged couples communicate their gift preferences to their wedding guests. The concept is very popular internationally, and makes it a lot easier for friends and family to buy the perfect wedding gift for their loved ones.
The ethos behind ForMyShaadi.com is simple. Statistics reveal that approximately 10 million weddings take place in India each year. While the industry servicing these weddings is highly fragmented with specialist florists, caterers, decorators etc, the wedding gifting space has been grossly overlooked in India. When couples perform all the wedding planning chores with great vigour, why is it that they hesitate in asking for their preferred gifts, that too from their loved ones? After all the grand celebrations, the couple is left with a bulk of unimaginative wedding gifts like cash, mundane ‘pass-on’ gifts or gifts that the couple getting married don’t really need or want. With ForMyShaadi.com, wedding gifting in India is about to become a lot more sensible and pragmatic.
