How they met
Sahil and Kareena crossed paths while pursuing their undergraduate degrees in Engineering. Despite being in the same batch they never interacted, and it wasn’t until their final year that they became friends. Their bond quickly deepened when they were placed in the same company in Bangalore. As they grew personally and professionally, their love grew with them, and they eventually decided to take their relationship to the next level and tie the knot.

The couple chose the city of lakes as the perfect backdrop to their nuptials, whisking their friends and family away for a royal destination wedding. Their special moments were captured by the team of Jayesh Photography. Looking back on their experience, they share, “Team Jayesh Photography was nothing short of excellent, and all their members were extremely hard working. Extremely talented and dedicated, they will make your wedding grand with their photography skills.”

Dressed in soothing tones of pink, they were the picture of happiness.
