We are writing to see if you would be interested in taking part in this Expo. Your company can be a part of this event by being one of our sponsors and assisting us in advertising this event to the whole community. Another way you can help support us is by advertising (half or full color page ad) in our brochure, or by contributing in any other way possible. Please note that part of the proceedings from this Expo will be donated to a local charity. 'Dulhania Bazaar' Bridal Expo was conceived with the modern sophisticated South Asian Bride in mind. All the brides as well as the sponsors can count on being part of an upscale premier event. The sponsors and participants represent the elite of their field as we believe that in order to be the best you must partner with the top of the industry. Given the sizable South Asian community in the greater Chicago area, this would be a great opportunity for you to expand your business base and maximize your profit potential. Being a part of this South Asian Bridal Expo is the perfect marketing tool for your company. This event will offer you maximum exposure without the continual cost of mass advertisement. More importantly, your company will also benefit from having complete exclusivity. To promote our event as well as your business, we will be printing 8000 flyers, 500 posters, and 5000 brochures for this event. The brochures will be distributed to the attendees on the day of the event and any remaining brochures will be distributed to the businesses/community all over Chicago after the Expo. The deadline to add your company's logo on our flyers and posters is November 15, 2008. Please let us know if you are interested and we will be happy to provide you with detailed information regarding the sponsor packages mentioned above. Also, let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you. Regards, Shy Khan 602-770-4066 DulhaniaBazaar@gmail.com Hello,

The problem doesn't lie in arranged marriages or those where partners "barely know each other". The problem is the criteria that many families use to find mates for their children. When you base a marriage on something so superficial as skin color, career, or family caste then your bound to miss what's really important. As muslims we are to choose our mates for their deen or risk being a loser; something that many people forget in the midst of looking at all their gifts and trying to impress their neighbors by telling them what a successful doctor their daughter snagged. As I mentioned I am from the west, and have lived here all my life. I have seen many couples marriages fail here for many of the same reasons...choosing their mates on superficial reasons. Falling in love (or the illusion of it) before marriage is no guarantee for lasting success. Tina, by your own admission you don't know very many western couples so I'm not really sure what you've based your opinion on wa Allahu alim. I know many happy muslim couples whose marriages were arranged. Success and happiness does not mean the same things to every person. Perhaps there needs to be more thought put into what constitutes happiness for you and whether or not that idea can be realistically achieved in marriage???
