Our story

April 22, 2017

Who would have thought? Pratik and Nirali at a Gujarati speed dating convention? She was looking to please her parents, he was looking for a free vacation (funded by the parents). But what they ended up finding is Love. I guess the saying is true, you find love when you are least expecting it. A one minute introduction left enough interest for a 10 minute conversation. The 10 minute conversation went by so fast and left both with a yearning for more. They could be found later that evening at the corner of the bar, unaware of the chaos around them, eyes deadlocked, his hand holding hers. Ask any witness and they will attest to the energy felt flowing from the corner of that bar. The conversation went deep into the night and into the morning until it was time for them to separate. Before departing they made essential modern love commitments; scheduling their next meeting and deleting their dating apps. Despite the physical distance between them they grew closer over the coming months. That energy felt at the corner of the dark bar eventually turned into everlasting love. It will be honor to have you join us in celebrating our love and energy.
