About the hosts
Yash & Samiksha's story
We have been inseparable since Grade 10, where our friendship first began. Over time, that bond turned deeper, something lasting. Now, at 28, I work as a financial controller for a hospitality company, and Samiksha, 27, is a research analyst. Our careers took us down different paths for a while. We spent four long years apart, navigating the ups and downs of a long-distance relationship. Missed celebrations, and endless video calls tested us, but our love grew stronger than the distance. When we were finally back in the same city, I knew it was time to make it official. The challenge was convincing Samiksha’s father. Coming from different beliefs and cultures, he was hesitant. But I was assiduous, as I promised to always stand by her. Eventually, he gave us his blessing. Now, we’re ready to begin our forever together. "Love is the bridge that brings hearts together, and on our wedding day, we would be honored to have your heart with us. Your presence would truly be a blessing."
