Im Half Italian and half Pakistani and planning my June or July 2020 wedding to include a mix of both cultures. Wedding will be in Jersey but I live in DC so looking for all the help I can get with the following:

1) a venue anywhere within an hour drive of central Jersey that allows outside catering and or allows for me to use their food for the Italian portion but will allow outside catering for the Pakistani food.

2) wedding planner that understands south Asian wedding customs

3) restaurants for a small engagement party (25 people) that serve halal food and have a private area for small parties.

4) Photographer recommendations

5) DJ recommendations (preferably someone familiar with both genres of music )

6) Indian/Pakistani Bridal boutique / tailor recommendations

Any other recommendations you might think of!!

Thanks!!!!

    Welcome to the WeddingWire community Noreen! Congratulations on your engagement!

    I would definitely recommend that you start with hiring your wedding planner. Especially since you are planning your wedding from out-of-state. It may be difficult to filter your wedding planner options down to exclusively ones that have an understanding of South Asian wedding customs but this is certainly something that you can ask in your first point of contact.

    A great place to start looking for your planner is on the WeddingWire vendor search. Here are the Central Jersey Wedding Planners that are listed.

    By making hiring your wedding planner the first thing you do, they will be able to apply their local knowledge to help you find culturally appropriate vendors for your wedding.
