Overall Website including Community Discussion Forum a.k.a Bridal Lounge + Business Directory Pages Rules

Welcome to The Muslim Bride LLC (dba Muslim Bride)/TheMuslimBride.Com! We would like the Muslim Bride website including community discussion forum a.k.a bridal lounge to be a place where Muslim brides, their friends and family members can comfortably discuss their wedding plans, stories and share information and ideas. Here are a few rules and guidelines we expect all our users and vendors to follow to help us ensure a safe but enjoyable and informative community experience. Please read them before posting anything.

General Rules:

1. TheMuslimBride.Com or The Muslim Bride LLC (dba Muslim Bride), cannot be held responsible for any content posted by the users or community forum members in the forum or anywhere on the website unless the content is posted by The Muslim Bride admin or team itself. All content and messages posted by the users or community forum members and views expressed by the users or the community forum members are solely that of the users, forum members or the authors of that content and The Muslim Bride team cannot be held accountable.

2. The Muslim Bride will be making modifications from time to time on the main website and the community forum a.k.a the bridal lounge (including Business Directory). Thus we reserve the right to modify the terms of agreement, rule and guidelines at any time without notice.

3. In general, editor, admin, moderators or assigned staff have the authority to do whatever they deem necessary to ensure a peaceful and comfortable environment on the website and specifically in the community forum. If they see someone or come across any content violating any forum rules of conduct then appropriate action including possible ban could take place.

4. All questionable submissions, posts and/or photos are subject to removal at The Muslim Bride’s sole discretion.

In the community forum, if you want to discuss bridal outfits for any events, please go to the forum of “The Dressing Room” which is under the category of ‘The Muslim Bride Wedding Planning’ and post your topic or question in that forum’s thread or page. Please note that The Muslim Bride reserves the right to move a topic to the appropriate forum when necessary.
