We are so excited to celebrate this weekend with the people we love most. Below you'll find the schedule of events and all the details you'll need for the festivities. Thank you for being part of our story—we can't wait to celebrate with you in St. Pete!

Our story

Although we now split our time between Central Pennsylvania and New York, Florida has always felt like home. When we began dreaming about our wedding, we knew we wanted it to be more than a single day—we wanted to share the Florida we know and love with the people who mean the most to us. That's why we're so excited to welcome you to St. Petersburg over Thanksgiving weekend, a place filled with memories, beautiful architecture, waterfront sunsets, and the easy charm that first made us fall in love with it. Our celebration is also inspired by the places and traditions that have shaped us, blending the timeless elegance of our South Asian heritage with the Mediterranean beauty and Old Florida character of the Vinoy. We hope this weekend feels like a little getaway—a chance to slow down, explore, celebrate, and create memories together. Thank you for making the trip to be part of this incredibly special season in our lives. We can't wait to celebrate with you.
