Everyday

Wedding Season

The gift table of a South Asian wedding: the homepage opens like a wedding invitation, ivory card and printed vellum under an embossed double rule of gold foil, three of your live prizes set into its die-cut arch windows, while marigold garlands swag from a mango-leaf toran above it and long strands of marigold, rose and jasmine hang down either side. In the two weeks before your sale a “save the date” card tucked into the corner counts down to its first day, and while it runs it says the wedding season is here and counts the days left; the dates are your own, or every year from 1 November to the end of February, the season shops in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and the diaspora fill with gifts, jewellery and sweets. Ivory and vermilion-maroon by day; after dark the evening of the celebration, an emerald night with the garlands lit by fairy lights. A toran hangs under the header, the footer is maroon velvet with garlands swagged across it, the wallet is a shagun envelope sealed with gold foil, the 404 is a garland whose three hanging rings read 404, and for the dark/light switch long strands of marigolds cascade down the page until they hang edge to edge, the evening comes or goes behind them, and they are drawn back up. Every other page is set from the same table: banners and product pictures on vellum in a gold-ruled card, rows and badges as gift tags, icons in arch windows, a brass urli of floating flowers for the spin wheel, gold foil to scratch on the scratch card, mithai and dry-fruit boxes, envelopes and gift trays for every empty page, payment result and error. Use it all year: outside the season it is simply a festive gift shop.
