We're up with the lark because the directive was to be at the auditorium by a half past 7. The auspicious moment of the wedding was sometime between 9 and a half past 10.
We're a trifle late but were well in time to see the playful bridegroom and his team making things difficult for the bride and her team to garland the guy as his bearers were raising him every now and then, when she almost managed to - pardon my usage of a phrase depicting a game but it safely puts you on the right path of imagination - 'ring the duck'. Finally, both parties were on even keel in so far as the accomplishments were concerned!
Next, the bride and her groom were made to sit on a flower bedecked swing with songs belted out by the near relatives wishing them a very happy life together - in advance, that is! Soon it was time for the final ceremony and sometime between 1028 and 1030h, Yash and Raji were man and wife. Wishes for a long and happy married life, were showered by everyone present, while pelting dried rice and flowers at the couple.
A scrumptious lunch, a quick change and by a quarter to 2, we'd set off on our return journey. Things seemed to be going fine as we got out of the city when disaster struck with the vehicle developing certain mechanical problems. Thankfully, the defect had surfaced in the vicinity of the automobile spares selling shops. It took more than three hours for the rectification process.
The rest of the journey was uneventful as I punch in these thoughts. But we still have miles to go before the final destination!
Tailpiece.
A nice outing that was full of fun and above all, very educative! Thanks Sekhar and Poorna for making it possible!! Here's us wishing Yash and Raji a very long and happy married life!!!
