My Engagement

Well, my engagement was on 1st September 2007, exactly 1 year and 37 days to be accurate to this date. It was a pleasant and interesting evening, as it started off at 7pm. My anni, who did my bridal and make up arrangement, set a modern and contemporary style of hair do. The make up was not too heavy as i asked for it to be so. I was in a pink saree tied in a gujerati style...(its the current trend where the before and afer style comes). My hands were beautifully decorated by the mehndi by my expert- Krish Ka, who came a day ahead to had it on my hands and legs.
Anxious and nervous i was as the time was nearing. Thaya and family came ard 6.30pm to the temple as some of my relatives were there to recv them. The ritual process ended ard 8pm, and i was brought in the engagement saree to be tied on. It was a nerve wrecking moment to be honest as i was surrounded by almost 10 ppl inside the changing room.. goshh..I was brought out at ard 8.00pm, accompanied by Thaya's cousin sister, as the bridesmaid, followed by my cousins and friend...As i entered the temple, Thaya walked towards me and handed over a bouquet of roses, which i hadn't expect..another surprise..yet i managed to smile though i was freking nervous, but as i caught a glipmse of my beau, all the tension sorta flew away. I looked at him smiling and walking beside me.. finally after performing some rituals, we exchanged our rings by 8.15pm...with happines and joy filled in our hearts..blessings from relatives and friends.. it was one of my memorable days..and am certainly preparing for my next agenda which will be my wedding..hehe...
