Our Wedding

We first crossed paths at a Pakistani Students Association event in college called Chit Chat and Chai. That evening ended with a spontaneous dinner at Maysalreem—with strangers who soon became forever friends. Sitting around the table with Yousma, Zara, Danesh, Sony &amp; Kashmala, something special began to take shape. It was over that shared meal that our friendship blossomed. For a while, we were simply friends—sharing study sessions, long conversations about faith, and meaningful service experiences, like assembling hygiene kits for refugees. Over time, that friendship deepened into something neither of us expected, but both grew to cherish. Our love was built on friendship, faith, shared values, and a passion for learning and growing together. Now, as we step into this next chapter, our hearts are full—and we’re so grateful to have you with us to celebrate!
