Our Story

The Wedding Website of Mohammed Elahi and Priyoti Awal
It all began at the BSA ice cream social at the University of Florida in 2021. Nervous but excited, they were ready to meet new people and start their journey. Little did they know, somewhere between awkward small talk and ice cream scoop, they were about to meet someone who would change everything. What started with small talk quickly blossomed into something that felt effortless, like they’d known each other forever. Their favorite spot? The quiet 5th floor of Marston Library. After class, they’d save a seat in the next cubicle and study in silence. And for break, a walk to the Reitz Union prayer room became their routine. Over 4 years, they supported each other through everything: graduating college, job hunts, medical school apps & all the emotional breakdowns in between! And so here they are—still saving each other a seat, still finding peace in the quiet, still growing together in ways they never imagined. Click through the pictures to see snippets of their journey together!
Our first time in Paynes Prairie…and guess what? That’s exactly where Elahi proposed 4 years later. Some places just know before you do.

November 17, 2021 – One of our countless library days. You can see it on our faces: full day of studying, zero regrets. This was the grind… and the glow.

Every step of our journey has been sweeter, louder, and so much brighter because of the people beside us. Our story is nothing without our friends.
