Kanakavalli Bride : Vishaka
Vishaka weds Kaushal
Kanakavalli Bride Vishaka and Kaushal met in the library on their second or third day of business school. He caught her attention, but she never imagined she’d end up married to him!
On her birthday that December, they both thought they felt a spark, and on her birthday the following year, Kaushal asked her out on their first date. They had so much fun and something in Vishaka’s heart told her that he was for keeps.
While the couple had discussed marriage and their families had met, Kaushal knew Vishaka wanted a proper proposal. Exactly two years after their first date, he took her out for a birthday dinner in Bangalore.
After dinner, she found him down on one knee, with ‘Will You Marry Me’ written in rose petals around him. She says she fell in love with him all over again!
Vishaka’s favourite part about planning the wedding was getting to do it all with her favourite person! She and Kaushal make a very good team and took every decision together, having fun as they ideated, researched vendors, made checklists and divided responsibilities.
The couple had a haldi ceremony, mehendi event, a traditional Telugu wedding and a cocktail party. Vishaka says that it was very satisfying to see something they put so much effort into come to life so beautifully.
For her, the wedding day was surreal and magical and she couldn’t stop smiling. The best part was being beside Kaushal on the mandap, their eyes constantly finding each other through the day.
A few months before the wedding, Vishaka and Kaushal visited Kanakavalli Adyar and she knew she would come back for her wedding sari.
They returned again when they were shopping for the wedding, but Vishaka felt a bit overwhelmed and decided to look around. They went to the Kingsley store and a few other shops, before finally returning to the Adyar store that evening and picking a gorgeous pink kanjivaram that Vishaka fell in love with. She said it felt like she came full circle and it was extra special because she was accompanied by her mother, fiancé, father-in-law and sister-in-law.
A big thank you to Vishaka for being a beautiful Kanakavalli Bride and sharing the story of her wedding with us. We wish her and Kaushal a lifetime of love and laughter.
