Our Love Story: A Chat with Minali
Step inside Minali’s love journey with us! From cherished memories to dreams for the future, this chat captures the beauty and magic of her story.
1. What was going through your mind just before you walked down the aisle?
I was making sure everything was in place—the rings, chains, all the little things.
I didn’t want any delays or anything missing. I just wanted everything to be perfect, so I was freaking out about that!
2. What’s one thing about your partner that you cherish the most?
That he’s always there for me!
3. How did you feel when you exchanged your vows?
Words cannot express that feeling! It was just so precious.
4. What was the most memorable part of your wedding day?
The father-daughter dance. So many mixed emotions.
5. How did you choose your wedding venue?
I always wanted to have my wedding at Shangri-La, but I went to see two other venues before that and wasn’t satisfied.
6. What advice would you give about finding the right dress?
It’s best to try on ready-made dresses rather than getting one stitched; that way, you can see which style suits you best.
Once you stitch a dress, there’s no going back! (This advice is only for dresses, not sarees.)
7. How did you manage stress during the planning process?
I vented to my family members and husband—haha! I didn’t really manage it; I just coped with it.
8. What was your favorite moment during the ceremony?
The Poruwa.
9. What little details made your wedding day special?
The invitations, cake boxes, and thank-you cards.
We‘ll be talking to a different bride every week so stay tuned for more!
