About the hosts
Amey & Amarja's story
Sometimes, the best things in life happen unexpectedly—just like our journey. Amey, a 29-year-old design engineer, and Amarja, a 26-year-old HR professional, met through a matrimonial suggestion, and from that moment, everything just clicked.
Despite different career paths, we found a perfect balance. Amey’s creativity and problem-solving mindset blend seamlessly with Amarja’s warmth and people skills. From deep conversations to endless laughter, from supporting dreams to cherishing life’s little joys, our love has grown beautifully.
Now, as we take this exciting step toward forever, we’re thrilled to celebrate with those who mean the most to us. Our wedding isn’t just about us—it’s about love, laughter, and the journey ahead.
"A successful marriage isn’t about finding the perfect person, but about loving an imperfect person perfectly."
We can't wait to create unforgettable memories with you on our special day!
