Atul & Ekta's story
Hi. I get in touch with my fiancée through instagram 8 years before. Then we start talking, spending time together and we fall in love. But then later I moved to United Kingdom for higher studies. That time when i was out of India we used to talk through video call, messages we used to share feeling and used to fight some times by using same platform. She is currently working as HR. And am looking to open my own business as I return from United Kingdom 15 days before for my wedding. I am inviting you to join our punjabi style wedding filled with Bhangra beats, colourful traditions from Mehendi to Dhol rhythms.
