What a wedding story
Courtesy ultimateweddingcontest.com
I’ve been out of commission for a while, thanks to a now 2-month-old cutie pie named Michael, but have been keeping an eye out for good wedding posts. And while this one doesn’t have much to do with decorations, I love the story, and darn it, I really hope this couple wins.
This is Matthew and Chloe. I was alerted to their story by a work colleague, who had posted a link on Facebook to their entry at Crate and Barrel’s $100,000 Ultimate Wedding contest. I think what caught my eye was “third time’s the charm!” Third time for what? I clicked to find out.
A Minnesota Desi wedding
By Shruti Mathur Desai
You may recognize my name from reporting back to Wedding Decorator about the various weddings I’ve attended. But now I’ve been invited to write a bit about a very special wedding (to me): My own!
A bit of background: My fiance Ravi and I met on our second day of college at the University of Minnesota. It took us a year to start dating, but it’s been eight wonderful years with him! Last September, he ambushed me with a surprise proposal and on July 4, 2009, we were married at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in St. Paul Minnesota.
I will spread out my wedding planning process over a few posts and I hope to add layers with pictures, as they come in from my talented friends and family.
