Like most modern love stories, ours began online—with a message, a spark, and just the right amount of nervous excitement. We both took a chance, never imagining that an algorithm would lead to a first date… and eventually, forever.

Since then, we’ve built a life full of love, adventure, and growth. We’ve traveled the world, jammed to our favorite bands, and welcomed two fur babies, Charlie and Ruby. Along the way, we’ve shared some of life’s biggest milestones- graduate school, new careers, first-time home ownership, and the everyday ups and downs that come with building a life together.

Last year, we celebrated two Pakistani wedding traditions: the Mehendi and Nikkah. The Mehendi was a vibrant celebration filled with elaborate henna, music, and dance. The Nikkah was an Islamic engagement ceremony where we made a commitment to one another before our families. Both celebrations are an important part of our story and hold a special place in our hearts.

Now, we’re so excited to continue the celebration with all of you. This wedding is not just the next chapter, but the next big party in a love story we can’t wait to keep writing together.

Love,

Kari and Hussain
