We first met at BAPS Swaminarayan Mandir Chino Hills in Shayona. But on 11/8/2018 during New Year Celebrations, we again met by accident and that’s when we thought, “Okay. This could be something.”

We went to El Matador State Beach in Malibu on this day, which happens to be my birthday. While walking on the beach, I suddenly stopped. She looked over back and saw me on my knee. She screamed and shouted "YES" and just like that we were engaged. We are excited beyond words to celebrate this next chapter in our lives with everyone, so See you all in Dabhan!
