Keyuri and Brijesh, Vadodara
Surrounded by vintage bulbs, crystal chandeliers and red blooms, this couple’s reception was a dazzling celebration.
A unique case of an arranged marriage meeting snowballing into ‘love at first sight’, Keyuri and Brijesh’s story is similar to a Bollywood flick. However, just like every other relationship, this duo too had their share of ups and downs. But, as the stars would have it, they managed to conquer every obstacle and finally got hitched in a series of impressive ceremonies that celebrated their love.
How They Met
Brijesh shares, “We’re from different towns and the first meeting we had was at my home in an arranged marriage setup. We felt an instant connection on our first meeting itself and knew that love had finally struck us. However, we did face some obstacles related to being astrologically compatible. But, that was taken care of and there was no looking back for us!”
