You know how we hear of Facebook helping people meet after ages, catching up and becoming more than just friends? Yeah, this is one of those instances. Although the two had been schoolmates, they lost all contact after school got over. Years later, Deepika looked up her Facebook friends and came across Arjun, and the rest as they say, was history. The two started chatting with each other quite often. Soon, they decided to meet and after that, they preferred spending most of their time together. They became very fond of each other and there soon came a point where both of them realised that they were destined to be together.
Then, they decided to tell their respective families about each other, and when they did, both the families decided a date to meet. After the first meeting itself, which took place on the August 25, 2014, their roka was fixed for just five days later, and the festivities began! In a mere span of just two months, everything starting from booking all the venues, buying the wedding outfits, booking the caterers, buying the jewellery and every other minute detail was arranged for. Both the families put their best foot forward to make this wedding a hit.
Even though all the arrangements were done in just five days, the roka ceremony that took place on October 26, 2014, was a well-organised affair and a hit amongst the guests. The venue for the ceremony was the very popular, The Panchshila Rendezvous in Malviya Nagar in Delhi. While the bride wore a pink and golden ankle length anarkali suit, her would-be-groom matched her attire as he too wore a pink shirt with black trousers.
The couple danced and took selfies with their family and friends, the ceremony went off perfectly well.
One of the most important part of weddings these days, their pre-wedding shoot was done by a reputed photographer, Manoj Grover who is again, based in Malviya Nagar. The photo shoot was done at the scenic Hauz Khas Village in South Delhi, and their out-of-the-box and candid poses came out exceptionally well. Take a look.
