It is a long journey for Niyati and Alok who met each other in 8th grade! Here is their story from Alok:
I first met Niyati in 8th grade during my stint with the Hill Country Middle School Symphonic Band. Due to our running in different circles of friends and middle school awkwardness in general, nothing particularly interesting happened for a few years. Our story begins at the end of high school with our first date, otherwise known as the Westlake HS prom. After three years together at The University of Texas, Niyati and I decided that we both wanted more letters after our names so we headed off to Dallas and Palo Alto, CA respectively. Turns out that it would take a lot more than 2000 miles to break us apart! I asked her to marry me in March of last year after a day of winery touring in Napa Valley. Niyati is finally venturing outside of Texas to join me in San Francisco once she graduates this spring.
Date: June 18th, 2011
Ceremony and Reception: Hilton Hotel in downtown Austin, Texas.
After two days of celebration, the wedding day is finally here! The day begins with Niyati and Alok getting ready at the downtown Hilton Hotel in Austin, Teas, followed by a short first meet. The Indian Baraat and Ceremony took place at the Hilton as well.
Our associate photographer Ashley Eddleman joins me and Hazel for the wedding day and did a great job! Some of the photos are hers.
This is part one of their day (Baraat and Ceremony – reception will be in a separate post coming up next):

























































Tying the knot, literally!











Their beautiful reception is coming up in the next post!
