Initially, I had stalked Nikhil on Instagram for hours! Later, we met through a mutual friend. After months of flirting and dinner dates, Nikhil finally mustered the courage to ask me out- with my friends’ blessings, of course!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nikhil and I decided to legally get married and exchange our vows in a church that February. We planned to have a traditional wedding which celebrated our respective cultures in November 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had a non-traditional wedding. I am Tamil and Nikhil is Hindi. Our goal was to incorporate customs from both our cultures as far as possible. <\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Planning our wedding became effortless after we decided that we wanted an intimate gathering which just included a few close family and friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were times when I wanted to throw my guest list folder at Nikhil but eventually with help from our family, every detail fell into place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best part of our wedding was our pre-wedding photoshoot. <\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Not only did Nikhil see me for the first time before the wedding but we had a whole lot of fun before striking serious faces at the ceremony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blink and it\u2019s over -enjoy every last minute of your wedding day! You are never going to get the opportunity again. Make it unforgettable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
