We found each other through Chavara Matrimony, with our families initiating the first discussions. But from the very first moment of our first video call on 4th August, my heart knew—she was mine. As we continued talking, what started as an arranged introduction soon turned into a beautiful journey of love. We dated online until September 1, when we finally met in person with our families. Even now, I can't put into words the happiness I felt seeing her for the first time. Over the months, we got to know each other, shared our dreams, and realized we were meant to be. And now, here we are, ready to begin forever together.

On the day our families gathered to finalize our wedding, I had a little surprise planned for Neena. I led her to a serene riverbank, lush with greenery, under the pretense of attending Jomol’s save-the-date shoot. Unaware of what was coming, she played along as we posed for photos. In the middle of a shot, I turned to her, holding out the ring, and asked, "Will you marry me?" For a moment, she was speechless—her breath caught between laughter and sheer disbelief. And then, with eyes full of love, she said Yes. We sealed the moment with a kiss, as the river whispered its blessings around us.

With the love and blessings of our families, our wedding was first set for November 10, 2024, in the presence of Neena’s parents, Mr. Sunny Mathew & Mrs. Celina, and my parents, Mr. John K.C. & Mrs. Reena John. As our journey together unfolded, so did our perfect day—now set for May 31, 2025. Surrounded by the warmth of our loved ones, we eagerly await the moment we say forever to each other. 💕
