I agree with Catherine about asking the family. They know you
aren't Pakistani and that you couldn't possibly know what to
expect.

If it is anything like Morocco, at such parties usually only married
women can get the full hands and feet treatment, so you will
probably be doing a lot of stuff for hands. If you want to save
space, bring books of hand designs. When i did a Sikh wedding
i was surprised at the kinds of designs that people chose. The
bride wanted pure Navneet, but the other women and girls were
divided. Half of them wanted to pick stuff out of my books and
half just told me to do whatever.

When I was in Morocco and in situations like this, most people
wanted anything BUT Moroccan designs; my point is that you
might be surprised in that they don't want the kind of designs you
would expect, so bring a wide wide variety. Also, if there are
going to be a lot of people make copies of your books (focusing
on hand designs) and laminate them or put them in binders so
that there are a bunch to pass around.

Oh, and one more thing...please report back to us and tell us
everything about it. i am very curious to know how it went and to
know what it is like at a Pakistani Ramadan party.

Knock 'em dead!
