Akanksha and Nikin's story began with a swipe right, a modern twist on their traditional Indian heritage. Fate brought them together on a dating app, and a few months later, they were breathing in the electrifying energy of New York City in August. Their first date was a whirlwind of deep conversations and laughter, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Edge and the iconic Brooklyn Bridge.


Their courtship unfolded over the following months, a series of virtual dates and stolen moments that deepened their connection. In November, Akanksha, tired of waiting, surprised Nikin with a spontaneous flight to Boston. His bewildered response, "Who flies to Boston from Newark?" was quickly silenced by her playful declaration, "Ok, so you're my boyfriend now!" Nikin, ever the charmer, simply replied, "Yay! I've been promoted!"


Their love story continued to blossom, culminating in a romantic beachside proposal in April 2023. Orchestrated with the help of Akanksha's sister Alisha, Nikin surprised her with engraved rings bearing their endearing nicknames - "My Udigi" (My Girl) for Akanksha and "Meri Jaan" (My Life) for Nikin.


In November 2023, their love was celebrated in grand style with a lavish engagement ceremony at the Taj Bengaluru, a testament to their families' blessings. Now, as they stand poised to embark on their forever journey, Akanksha and Nikin invite you to join them as they celebrate their love in front of their loved ones. Their story, a beautiful blend of tradition and modern serendipity, is about to unfold its next chapter, and you're invited to witness the magic.
