For me, Weddings are not just one day celebrations, it’s the midpoint of two journeys, one that ends to begin the new . The day we wait for since we find the love of our life. The day you promise someone to share your life and grow old together ❤️. How amazing and nice that would be guys!! 🙃😍🥰
While for some people it’s like a grand day to be celebrated with all pomp and show, for some people it’s a warm day meant to be shared only with closest friends and family just like me.

And what I like about this is that you won’t have to worry about booking a date or duration of celebration.😍
