Dear Aishak,

Thanks for your good wishes, I will try my best
I will surely give you my contact number or email Id, in case you need any help.
But doon kese? Main new user hun, can´t write a private message to someone and forum main to likhna munasib nahin. If you can write to me in private to I will give you the info you need. Aur for you I wish all the best aswell.
Main Alle nORA check kar loongi and can speak from my experience then. As mirzajamali already said that madeeha is also very good, but we have to stick to one of them

For photosession i have heard that Shahnawaz is greattt. I have visited his website and saw awesome pictures. He is very expensive although but if your budget allows then he will be the best choice for sure.

Here is the website: www.shahnawazstudio.com.

Woh pics achi ayengee...and the whole shaadi photosession im not sure of shahnawaz is good but he is expensive there is another one www.cliftonstudio.com its in Gulberg i heard there good. What about the jewellery?

Hi Aishak,

I sent a private message to you, let me know whether you received it or not.
Yes I will book Alle Nora for sure and will also book them for photosession. I have seen their photosession which is very satisfying. Shahnawaz is good too but first of all quite expensive and secondly I would not have that much time, since the wedding is not going to take place in Lahore. The website you gave pointed out is also very good. Jewellry ka mujhe nahin pata, sis ne lahore main designer jewellry li hai. Should I ask her the name of the shops? Baaki karachi se bhi li hai. Yaar jewellry ka to mujhe khud nahin pata kesi hai. Meri shadi ke baad aap ke paas still kaafi time hoga, so tab tak mere paas saari infos hungi, to i will update you.

Dear Saima,....thanks so much...i didn't know ke you can get your photosession at the salon its self...so you know how much allenora charges for make up and photo session?

Dear Aisha,

I emailed Madeehas and their price of photosession is 10,000. I guess Alle Nora will charge round about 12,000 not more. My sis will visit Alle Nora in coming week and will update me on the prices. As soon as I get the info I will let you know.But if I had the time I would have gone to Shahnawaz for sure

Hey I got my make-up done by maheehas, she her self did my makeup, just for the make-up it cost me 12000 then now i heard it is 20000 and if you want madeeha to do it her self it will cost more.... and the weddin packages are different i think it cost my cus about 50,000 for makeup and photo shoots. im not sure about that if they changed it by now or not. and also Maytiii is good tooo most of the experince in my family with allenora is bad and some friends too but Maitee is good. really good. so try her

yaar faiza, you are making me confused I have made my mind for booking Alle Nora, since so many were quite happy with their service. Can you tell me whether your relatives got their makeup done by Annie the owner or by her assistants? It really makes the difference I guess. And if all got their makeup done by Annie than I will not feel comfortable going there. Please update me on that.

I am going to get married in the beginning of November this year (insha Allah) and would love to get my makeup done in Lahore. Atharshehzad is really not a good option, since it´s like "unchi dukaan pheeka pakwaan". He may be very good in model makeup but the brides I have seen or heard from were not looking stunning. (I guess this is the minimum demand you have if you spend a plenty of money) One of my cousin got her makeup done from Alle Nora and Annie did the make up herself. I must admit that she was looking just too good. I have never seen such beautiful photographs. But this was done in 1997. I am not sure whether Annie is still practising in Lahore, since she has opened a branch in Karachi. Moreover some say she charges 30,000 for a full makeup. Is this the current price? In my opinion this is really the limit. If she is going to charge 50,000 nowadays then I will not consider her. I know it´s your special day and you want the best results, but the price should be feasible.

I have also heard good things about madeehas. Don´t know how much she will charge, if I want the makeup done by the owner. Well I am travelling all the way to Lahore and no one is really supporting me in the family to travel so far. And if the result is negative in the end, it will be a nightmare.

So I need tips from you guys. Does anyone have some good/bad experiences with Alle Nora or Madeehas? Whose photoshoot is better? And does anyone know the current prices? Or are there any other good parlours? I have heard from lilly´s. Does anyone know lilly´s`?

Your help would be most appreciated.

Kind regards,

Saima

Madeeha's is teh better choice, since she's alot cheaper than Allenora.. There's also New Look, if the owner does the makeup, its 25,000 Rs...

Well just a small update

Since I could not decide between Alle Nora and Madeeha, I am going to book both. On my wedding day I will go to Alle Nora and Annie is going to do the makeup and for baraat I will book Madeeha. And lets see who is the best. (Annie aur Madeeha ki itni tareefen hain, aur choice utni mushkil)

Aoa,

Samia,my sister is also getting married in the month of november,she has booked Newlook after visiting all famous parlours in Lahore.Arsh is doing her makeup and charging 25000Rs.Arsh has learnt makeup from Canada and Lebenon.And belive me she and her mother are too good
Let me tell you something about madeha and Allenora.Maheeda always gives a birde black shades with red dress....its a bad choice...black eyes looks good only on models or party makeup.
Allernora gives you too much white base that will appear only in ur shoot with your hubby.your huddy in his natural colour and you in extra white face with dark hands and arms.
Still you should visit all the parlours,its ur Big Day and you desire the best.
From where you are getting henna?i am a henna artist.

I think you should go the other way. For barat book Alle Nora and for Walima book madeeha.
I heard that Alle Nora does a good job with red dress, and madeeha's makeup is soft which I think is more appropriate for walima

yeah...i got mine done from Arsh!! she is fabulous!!!

Actually i got party makeup done from New Look but I hated it..my nand got her makeup done by the owner (I think arsh's mother) and i loved her makeup..

Thanks everyone for your precious experiences and views on that. Well I had to come up with one decision so I chose Alle Nora on both days. They actually said we can assure you that even with exactly the same dress on baraat and waleema we can make the person look different. So I will see the end result later on. Since i have heard from many people that Alle Nora does the makeup well if your wedding dress is red, therefore I could not think of anyone else. Tarefeen sab ki suni hain, Madeeha, Alle Nora and New look. But experiment ka time nahin. Annie (Alle Nora) charges 35,000, her assistant get 15,000, so I will see ´whether the difference in prices is worth or not. I will let you know. I have also heard that Madeeha gives you too much white base, so it really confused me. I guess it differs from person to person and moreover sab dulhanon pe roop bhi nahin aata, chahe 1 lakh ka makeup kyun na ho. I just pray that I dont look like a a pastry or ghost That would be a waste of money.

Hi artlover,

I have not made my mind regarding henna. Where are you located? Are you in lahore. Well if yes, please tell me about henna designs and stuff relating to that. You said that your are a henna artist, do you have a parlour somewhere?

Kind regards,
