May 8, 2018, is one of the most memorable days as it was the day when Sonam Kapoor became Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Anand Ahuja became Anand S Ahuja (yes, both changed their names). The couple took the wedding vows in a starry and grand affair in an Anand Karaj ceremony that took place in the presence of all near and dear ones. All of Sonam’s fans went mad, so much so that her wedding was trending on social media.

Giving a pleasant surprise to everyone and putting all the rumours at the bay, both the families released an official statement of the wedding early in May 2018. The official statement could be read as, "The Kapoor and Ahuja families, take great joy and pride, in announcing the marriage of Sonam and Anand. The wedding will take place on the 8th of May in Mumbai. Since it is an intimate affair, we request you to respect the family's need for privacy. Thank you for all your blessings and love, as we celebrate this special moment in our lives."

Most of us know that Sonam and Anand have not been on their honeymoon yet. And in fact, right after two days of their wedding, Sonam flew to Cannes to attend the ongoing Cannes Film Festival 2018. After almost two months after their blissful wedding day, Sonam has shared Anand’s reaction when she told him about attending Cannes. Sonam shared an unseen picture from their wedding and captioned it, “Anand is so encouraging when it comes to my work that he didn’t blink when I told him I was flying to Cannes two days after the wedding or that I was getting into promotions straightaway. There was no argument, just acceptance—you gotta do what you gotta do. #EverydayPhenomenal.” (Don't Miss: Taimur Ali Khan and Kainaat Singh's Playdate, She Can't Stop Laughing As He Looks At Her)
And then there is another unseen picture that Sonam Kapoor Ahuja shared on her official Instagram handle. In the caption, she revealed her first date with Anand. Here’s what the caption could be read as, “Recalling my first date “I was apparently wearing the worst sneakers he had ever seen. I keep telling him that he fell in love with me despite my bad sneaker game... That day, walking and talking in London, I knew he was the love of my life.” #EverydayPhenomenal @anandahuja.” Here’s the picture:

While Sonam shared the pics in different posts, Anand S Ahuja posted in a single go with a heart-warming caption, which is a poem by Rumi. Here's what Anand's caption read, "“From the beginning of my life, I have been looking for your face, ..today I have seen it, Today I have seen, the charm, the beauty, the unfathomable grace, of the face, that I was looking for, ... I have found you.., I am bewildered by the magnificence, of your beauty, and wish to see you, with a hundred eyes, My heart (is filled) with passion, and has searched forever, for this wondrous beauty that I now behold, I am ashamed, to call this love human, and afraid of God, to call it divine, Your fragrant breath, like the morning breeze, has come to the stillness of the garden, You have breathed .. life into me, I have become your sunshine, and also your shadow, ...Every fiber of my being, is in love with you, Your effulgence, has lit a fire in my heart for me, the earth and the sky..#Rumi Feelings from the first day we met, 2 years (to the date) from when we got married @sonamkapoor ! #everydayphenomenal”

Sonam had gifted the best thing to Anand on their wedding and that is a set of a few poems. In an interview with Simi Garewal earlier, Sonam had said, “I have written quite a few poems but there was this one poem that I wrote when I was around 16 years old. It is called Ambition. I had promised myself that as soon as I find the person that I'm going to be with, I'm going to give him that poem. The day I get married, the poem will be with that man and I'll say that this is what I want my life to be like and hopefully, we can work together towards this”.
