Every love story is beautiful… But ours is my favourite!


Urvashi & Akash

7th May 2019


Let us rewind to September 2014, when the two stars of our story were studying at the University of Warwick. Urvashi & Akash met for the first time through a friend - Radhey- our very own cupid! There were no sparks flying and no love at first sight. No particular interest in each other... But the universe had other plans for these two beautiful souls.

What the three did have in common was wanderlust and this helped build a friendship over time and travel. Traveling to Turkey for New Year celebrations, 2015, laid the foundation for their friendship. Somewhere between numerous holidays and road trips across Europe and UK, Urvashi & Akash started to get to know each other better and built a special bond of trust, comfort and understanding. It was always 'home' around each other and having Cupid around just made everything easier.


Crazy little thing called LOVE

Feb 2015, the month of love was when Akash & Urvashi realised that they have become 3am friends. They were not sure where destiny would take them but they chose to enjoy their present rather than worry about the future. Que sera sera...

At the end of their course in September they both returned to their respective hometown in India, not knowing what the future held in store for their relationship. They didn’t realise how deeply they were in love and maybe they would have never found out, except...

Serendipity struck!

Urvashi who lived in Bengaluru got a job offer in Delhi and you guessed it, that’s just where Akash is from. It seemed like the guardian angels had just opened the gates to love and happiness.

Every relationship needs to find its own balance between freedom & commitment and our star couple needed to find theirs too - to figure out what they wanted for their future. Akash was reluctant to commit since he wanted to be financially settled first. He wanted the love of his life to have every comfort he could give her and wanted to take things slowly. Urvashi on the other hand was crystal clear in her mind about their relationship. She wanted Akash in her life forever and always.

Urvashi, our fun loving yet mature bride helped Akash to overcome his fear of uncertainty and commitment, giving them both peace of mind. Head over heels, our hero - Akash was all that Urvashi needed to settle down in Delhi, right from shopping to setting up her first house. He became her pillar of strength and support. There was no looking back from here on!

Another step closer!

The biggest milestone in their journey was Radhey getting married. Picture a romantic wedding setup in the beautiful city of lakes and palaces, Udiapur. You’re going to feel the love and then some more… Seeing their best friend married, was all they needed to address that things were getting real. Radhey’s beautiful wedding was just what it took for these two to realise their own feelings towards their relationship. It was now or never. It was time to take their relationship to the next level. It was time for a big fat Indian wedding.

The Ultimate step

Getting Urvashi's parents on board was fairly easy, they have an open, communicative relationship. It was imperative for Akash and Urvashi that both the families were completely on board. Akash also decided it was time to tell his family about his lady love. Urvashi & Akash had to wait patiently (and anxiously) for their families' approval and it was almost six months before both families were ready to go ahead.

Finally, Urvashi's future in-laws arrived in Bangalore to pay her family a visit and Urvashi left no stone unturned to make them as comfortable as possible. She was equally well accepted by Akash's mother in Delhi at their first meeting earlier. Finally, the two families met in Delhi and their engagement was fixed for 20th January 2019. 

A consistent effort of 4 years and counting, this couple was confident and resilient that they held themselves strong and made their families believe in them. Their love had to win them all.
