We were in the same law school, two years apart, but never really got the opportunity to get to know each other. Saumya: This was partially due to the fact that I never really liked him in college (dramatic, yes). Rutunjay: Also, I spent most of my time cooped up in my hostel room, barely speaking to someone unless they spoke to me first (shy, yes). Saumya: In my final year in law school, he and his boss came to recruit two students to work with the law firm, and they ended up picking me! Rutunjay: She turned out to be the best choice, in more ways than one. Seven months later, we ended up being colleagues, soon becoming friends, then neighbours and since April 2015, a couple :)
He basically highjacked my cousin's Sangeet in December 2017 (though he feels this is again a little dramatic). Just before the Sangeet, I was called to my grandfather's room. Thinking something has happened to him, I rushed to his room, only to find my mom, sister, grandfather, aunt and uncle all surrounding Rutunjay, who was sitting right next to my grandfather. He got down on one knee and proposed with a bracelet made with pearls, emeralds and garnets, which belonged to his grandmother. I said yes, and as of December 09, 2017, we were engaged :)
We always wanted a small, intimate wedding with our closest friends and family. It took more than a year to plan this event, and we hope each and every person enjoys themselves and remembers our wedding fondly :)
