We both have worked together for about 6 years. Both being engineers, our teams worked very closely on projects throughout the years. We started to become better friends when Rajiv began mentoring Neha on projects and her Lean Six Sigma Certification. We have been great friends since we started and became better friends as the years passed!

The love that we both have for each other is a kind of love everyone should feel. We have grown from colleagues, to mentor/mentee, to best friends, to mom & dad and now husband and wife. The journey has not been easy, but it has all been worth it. We have found each other and are excited to be starting our life (as 4!) together very soon!

Rajiv proposed at the Newport Harbor on a very romantic gondola ride, with champagne, chocolate and even a photographer! October 28 was Neha's late Grandmother's birthday, a day that Rajiv knew was very special. Knowing she could not be with us on this day, he made this day a day to remember, for many reasons! With the help of the crew, he left a "message in a bottle" and when she was through reading it, he was there with the ring in hand, and of course she said YES!

The big day! We have been planning this for about a year, and have put a lot of thought and time into making this day special for us as well as all our family & friends! We have had quite the journey and are excited to make our love official and start our life journey together with all of you! See you in Irvine!
