Finally the wedding

Image
Its a mixed kind of wedding taking some of the traditions from marwadi style and some from other caste. oh!! A real Challenge i should say, not just different traditions its completely different cultures coming together. So the plan was then to make marwadi style reception and wedding in other style. I am happy that things went well overally with all preparations. Its small and simply wedding. Unfortunately some of our good friends couldn't come due to several reasons, i really wish so much that everybody could come, but cant help sometimes in our lives we cant expect everything we think, will happen. So in life we have to be contented with what we get. I am so much happy for this moment in our life, it was long awaited time. Its quite obvious right ? And you can see that in my face. After all its beginning our life together :) Isn't it wonderful Ghagra(dress)??
