Is it usual for the photographers to seek a 50% advance from the client to book dates for wedding photography?

Basically the title.

Hi guys, please don’t come at me for asking. My wedding is in 5 months and happening in Delhi. My dates are also extremely heavy. I have been speaking with wedding photographers for some time now, and all of them have asked for an advance of 40% at least.
The photographer who am engaging with is a very nice one and after much negotiation, he has agreed for a prewed shoot, bridal mehendi small function, haldi, mehendi, sangeet and wedding day coverage at 2.6 lacs with usual deliverables and a wedding album. I have loved him, and so have ALL my friends.

When I told my parents that we must pay 40% of the total amount as a booking advance, they simply flipped saying that why is such a huge sum required from the get go. I did ask him to sort of change the fee structure and he had changed it from an original 50% to now 40%.

All of those who have gotten married, did you also do the same? Help your girl out, thanks!

Are there any whole sale shops in Delhi which sell suit materials from Raymond?

Hi all,

Basically the title. Hate the lena-dena in a wedding, but parents are after my life, riwaaz, custom and all that. ://

Wished to check where in Delhi could I find a whole sale shop or better priced suit in pieces from Raymond. People in my family are extremely brand conscious, hence the fucking issue.

Thanks in advance for any help that can be extended. :)

Looking for leads to find a beautiful hand embroidered lehenga for my upcoming wedding and sangeet functions

Hi everyone,
I am looking at getting married by early December and have started looking out for wedding lehengas since i do not have much time if they embroider it by hand.
My budget is about a lac plus for the wedding lehenga and about 70k for a fishcut lehenga for my Sangeet.

I am open to exploring all places in Delhi NCR, would just like them to be tasteful and unique.

Would be grateful if you could drop your suggestions, I have been to Shahpur Jat and Kalki/Frontier Raas in South Ex. Nothing looked “WOW” despite having a comfortable budget (or so I think) to spend.

I am thinking of utilising the weekend, please do help your girl out. Thanks a bunch; I shall be truly grateful to all the Internet strangers.🩷🌻
