It's your gaye holud day. You can have it in a community centre or the roof. Food, decoration, music and stage decoration are all required.

5 - Wedding day
Nikah also happens on this day. You are Islamically married after Nikah. This is when you rent a community hall , all the guests come from both sides, you rent cars, have food , etc.
Do not hire so called professional photographers. They use old DV camcorders and DV tape. Get a cousin or a friend to record your wedding / gaye holuds with your own HD camcorder. They also bother you too much while they take photos of you from all angles and light you up.
Cost - Tk ?

If you want to get married, you need to ensure you have Tk 20 lakhs minimum to cover everything.

Whom did you hire? AFAIK, wedding photography/cinematography has improved drastically in Bangladesh.
