Soumyajit & Sudipa's story
It's a long story. We know each other since 2012 and now tieing knot at 2026,july 20th.On the 1st day of college we didn't knw that out friendship will last so long. We faced several ups & down and that helped us to come more closer.We two are just like two different poles of the earth.our likings are different but still there is some bond that unites us together. And when we decided to get married as if God himself wants to unite us. Our family agreed and everything just get fixed automatically.Today is February and we are planning for July wedding and our relatives said u don't have much time how will you manage all the arrangements.one should book marriage halls before 1 year, you'll not get makeup artist free in that short span of time. But whoever I called for the dates they were free as if God himself had arranged everything for us. We didnt have to worry for any bookings. Everything is going in our way and we hope you to witness our new journey together.
Thank you
