We got married
Payal&Mukul
Hathras, Uttar Pradesh. Four days, one very long and very good week.
The rest of itFrom both of us
Thank you for being there
We spent the better part of a year planning four days, and then the four days went past in about an hour. What we remember is not the schedule. It is the people who travelled a long way to get there, who danced considerably longer than they had planned to, who stayed up through the phere and were somehow upright again for the vidaai.
A wedding is really just a room full of people who decided your day was worth rearranging theirs for. We have not stopped thinking about that.
We have been going back through the photographs ever since. This is where we are keeping them.

We have kept the photographs private, so they stay between the people who were actually there. If you were at the wedding and do not have the password, message either of us.
