Published 30 October 2026
Small marriage biodata mistakes cause big back-and-forth. Fix these before the first WhatsApp forward.
Mistakes to avoid
- Blurry or casual photos — use a recent formal photo
- Tiny fonts — unreadable on phones and print
- Outdated phone numbers — verify before every round of shares
- Overcrowded pages — cut unused fields instead of shrinking text
- Screenshots instead of PDFs — quality drops after forwards
- Inconsistent language — pick English or regional labels and stick to them
- Full street address too early — city is usually enough first
Quick fixes
- Prefer a one-page layout: one-page format
- Run a print check: print-ready checklist
- Refresh an old file: redesign
- Start clean: templates
