Our Story
From the moment we met, to the moment we said yes, leading to the moment we say I do
A sonnet written with love and care dedicated to my darling wife - Abinayah
The Beginning
How We Met
Abini — strange how fate began with sight,
You watched my stories, quiet, from afar,
Yet something in you pulled me in that night,
I’m glad I chose to ask just who you are.
Our First Chapter
Growing Together
I saw at once your heart was never small,
Your world held close by those you love the most,
And though I joke I’ll outrank them all,
(Your twin still fights me for that sacred post).
You dream in weddings, babies, perfect days,
Yet fought through storms that few could understand,
Through loss, through pain — you found your steady ways,
And now you heal the world with gentle hands.
The Proposal - 25th April 2026
She Said Yes
So drive me forward, love—no maps, no plan,
For wherever you are… is where I stand.

Let us know of any dietary requirements or accessibility needs when you fill in the form.
Traditional attire is warmly encouraged — sarees, veshtis, and suits all look wonderful. Please avoid white, black, and red. Smart Western dress is also perfectly welcome.
Can I bring children?
Children are welcome at the traditional ceremony and reception. Please let us know on the RSVP form so we can ensure appropriate seating and food options.
Is there parking available?
Free parking available at the venues.
Are there dietary options?
Only vegetarian food will be served at the traditional Tamil wedding, and due to the large number of guests it is difficult for us to guarantee that all allergens can be catered for.
For those attending any of the other wedding events, please indicate your dietary options and allergens when you RSVP.
What is the thaali and why is the thaali time so important?
The thaali is a sacred gold necklace tied by the groom around the bride's neck at the most auspicious moment of the ceremony. This sacred time is determined through the alignment of the bride and groom's horoscopes with the positions of the stars and planets, and marks the moment we are officially wed in the eyes of our tradition — so please be seated well before this time!
Should I bring a gift?
Please do not bring boxed gifts to the venue — space is limited and we would hate for anything to be misplaced.
