Our story

How we met

Our journey began in the most modern of ways—through a matrimony website that connected our hearts across miles. While Shubhi was immersed in the charm of Virginia, Prateek was soaking up the sun in California. Little did we know that our first video chat in February 2024 would spark an instant connection, fueled by our shared love for dogs, adventurous road trips, and, of course, chocolate. This moment marked the beginning of a beautiful adventure together.

As our relationship blossomed, we filled our days with unforgettable memories. From savoring exquisite wines in Napa to embarking on scenic road trips across West Virginia, we embraced each moment together, especially as the leaves transformed into a tapestry of colors. With every adventure, we learned the true essence of love, trust, and unwavering support, forging a bond that deepens with each passing day.

Growing together

Rokafied

On July 21st, we celebrated our commitment with an intimate Roka ceremony in Massachusetts, surrounded by our beloved families. It was a heartfelt occasion that brought us even closer.

The proposal

Then came September 1—a day that would forever hold a special place in our hearts. Prateek orchestrated a surprise proposal at a resort in Virginia that took Shubhi’s breath away, creating a magical moment that beautifully sealed our commitment to one another. With joy in our hearts, we eagerly step forward into this next chapter of our lives together.
