'tie the knot'
it's a customary practice to tie the knot during the ceremony
a symbol that the bride and groom are officially married!

Jabba Shalla Ba Baby!

i am curious with the product itself.
simplymarry? we can just simplymarry? what....?

_inkpact's picture 84 pencils

agree.
it´s beautiful, but what´s that? simply-marry? isn´t simply the opposite of marry?
;)

brilliant.
difinitely it will grab attention and people will talk about it. very well don.

Hi, key

yes you don't get it bcoz. u don,t know hindu culture.
In hindu culture, at the time of marriage ceremony have to perform
seven rounds around fire by tying knot to thier cloths. One end of girls
cloths called pallo' and one end of boys cloth call dupatta. both when knoted
exactly looks like a knot seen in the banner. This stage in wedding ceremony is very important
except this marriage ceremony dosen,t get a confirm status.

After this great explication, I found this ad fabulous, excellent, clear and simple, different very good media change.

Thats right, but the idea is stronger even that that, because the phrase 'tie the knot' is widely recognised outside of Hindu culture aswell.

So it scores more points.

A great idea.
