Our Unconventional Story

The long game

Puneet and I met on September 17th 2011 at a birthday party for our mutual friend. We immediately hit it off, but it just wasn't our time yet. We became friends who occasionally met up until 2015, when we started talking more often, about the many things we had in common (TV shows, comic con, anime, our knee surgeries), and the things we didn’t at all (Harry Potter, sports, our jobs). We connected at many events, but were always surrounded by friends. We continued this until one night when Puneet reached out again. My good friend and her husband were heading to Top Golf, and I decided that we'd join them. We had a great double-date, and spent time alone afterwards talking forever. The following day, August 1st, we started seeing each other every day. Our story just kept getting better. Two years later in August 2017, we bought a house in Naperville and got legally married. We had our immediate family as witnesses, and now we're ready to share and celebrate our union with the rest of our favorite people!
