Mahr 125 Preparation Service

Mahr of 125 baht, or a dowry of 125 baht — if you’re planning a nikah around this time, you may have heard this term mentioned in passing. Basically, it’s the dowry money. Why 125 baht? That’s a fairly long story; to put it briefly, it’s a custom that people commonly follow and often need to prepare, as some officiants ask for it to be included. When the officiant asks for it, we often end up digging through our bags looking for banknotes and coins right there, which can look a bit chaotic. Or, if it’s prepared in advance, just plain cash placed on a tray doesn’t look very nice. Nowadays, it’s arranged in a nicely designed box to be placed during the ceremony, doubling as a keepsake.

Our shop’s mahr pieces are handmade, made to order, and produced according to our own design, using good-grade bridal lace combined into the work. The design varies depending on the latest materials available, and the bride can let us know roughly what color she would like. The service is made to order, and can either be picked up at the shop or delivered, with delivery fees depending on distance. Anyone interested in this service can inquire through the page or by messaging the shop.
