A Match made in heaven


I came back home in the early morning hours of thursday on 7th of june.Its was not only to visit my family members or enjoy the summer vacation in an even hotter (than Cochin) Calcutta but mainly to attend my only brother's wedding! Yeah my elder brother got married on 13th of june and he is already in the 3rd day of his marriage! As for me I had a splendid time as well...

In many ways attending this wedding and the subsequent reception was a strange feeling for me. I have been to many Bengali weddings before this one, but this one was different. Because it was special; Special to me; Special to my family; Special to my home. It was different because It was my own brother who got married, different cause, I've never been this much busy in any other wedding, my home has never been this much full of people for 4 consecutive days and likewise has never been so chaotic ever. And lastly no other wedding has ever been so tiresome yet so exciting for me or my family.

What I will do though is upload some of the snaps that i took on the course of those 4 days.
Here goes...

these three were taken during the morning of the wedding.

the next two were taken in d evening when it kind of becomes a chaos and people start hurrying for te final preparations.. well at least the one who mattered, was keeping cool! :))

anyways enough of introductions.. just glance through the next few ones.. the important ones...






Don't know where i was looking!:(:(



we have a reason to smile, and that's not only for the photographer's!:)









and finally...
there were a two hundred and ten more photographs more.. but umm I don't think I'm gonna sit and upload them all, its my blogging page not a photograph album sharing site!!..:p

these were some of my favorite pictures from the day of reception and, later in eve, the reception function..
one of my favorite snap




looks delicious, doesn't it? yep, it really did! ;)





And finally they had the stage only for themselves!:)

this one was pretty funny to observe.. which order you would want to arrange them eh? ascending or descending? :)



It really was super 4 days.. sorry for the fact that i can't/dont want to upload all of them pictures.. hope this was good enough.. there were a lot of people who i knew wanted to come, but could not attend in the end, I hope they liked what they saw.
I had to brood over a considerable amount of time about what heading i should give. Well I had a heading in mind, but sadly a certain someone already took it before me in facebook.:( But no pressure.;)


To all my friends who have been constantly texting me in mobile, I'm sorry I could not answer them back, and wont be doing so till 6th of july.  And to all my Keralian friends, I'm not going in to details of how Bengali marriages are performed or what are the rituals that are performed under it. You can find that out from any of the Hindi movies on Bengali customs or just google it!:)) or you know what, just wait for us to return and to tell u! :P :)
