The morning had begun on a liesurely note. The Westway has a nice ambience and the night was comfortable. We're ready by 8 and in the process of dressing up, had to help Lekha with the safety pins at strategic points on her saree! We both were wearing clothes with the mural paintings of Krishna and Radha emblazoned at Asha's studio in Guruvayur.
Thus the guests became our ardent admirers and we, once again, got into the limelight much to our discomfort. And there was a humorous twist to it, I'd missed out on the removal of the paper stiffner behind the collar and wore it for almost the entire duration of the wedding till it fell off ultimately much to my embarrassment.
The wedding was a neat and elegant affair with a touch of class. Pooja and Ashwin looked a smart, handsome couple and the entire ceremony was over by a half past 10. The class of '72 had a group photograph taken with the newlyweds - Mohan-Asha, Kollody-Shylaja, Venugopal-Umah, Vasu-Sujatha, Jojy-Saly, Ramanujan-Prema, Anandakrishnan-Sandhya, Padmanabhan-Ajitha, self-Lekha and Pooja's parents, Yedu-Raji formed the line up.
After the ceremonial lunch, we'd returned to our hotel and changed to set off on our return leg by a half past 12. Rains and traffic delayed our movement and by the time we reached Jojy's place it was sunset, almost. We decided to stay put for the evening and continue our onward journey tomorrow morning. It was then that we really caught up with Jojy and Saly.
Tailpiece.
1. It was really late by the time I'd hit the sack but I'd to finish the backlog of mail and replying them, that had piled up this time, since I'd forgotten my laptop at home.
2. I felt guilty on one count. In the flurry of meeting social commitments, we didn't exercise our franchise.
3. Wish you the very best in your journey of life together, Pooja and Ashwin.
