After its completion of 10 successful years, Shaadi.com, the world’s largest matrimonial service provider, has announced the launch of Shaadi Pages (www.shaadipages.com) – India’s first online wedding directory. The new user-friendly portal provides to-be-married couples with a one-stop-source for all their wedding requirements.

Couples these days are extremely occupied with hectic work hours. Shaadi Pages has been specifically created to help these couples plan their wedding with style and ease. To-be-married couples can now do their wedding planning around their convenient schedules and not be limited by store hours. Once on Shaadi Pages, couples simply enter the type of service they are looking for, along with their city, locality, pincode, vendor name or keyword, and Shaadi Pages will generate vendor listings meeting the criteria. Couples can then contact the vendors most suitable to their requirements.
