Posted: 13 years ago

Hello Hello Hello๐Ÿ˜›

A few days ago Jiya suggested that I do a "Wedding Diary/Journal". I honestly didn't even have to think about it, it seemed like a nice,interesting and fun idea,so I agreed๐Ÿ˜› I actually told her I would start it sometimes in Febuary because I didn't think I had enought things planned. However today I was looking through my phone and I realized I have quite a few things ready! (Everytime we finish planning something I make a note on my iphone๐Ÿ˜Š). I was going to start off with the first thing I did (Look for my wedding gown) but then I realized that wasn't the first thing...the first thing was meeting my fiance!!๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† 
 
So this is the order the "journal entries" are going to be in:
    How we met
    The proposal
    Finding the wedding gown for the Catholic wedding (pg.2)
    The wedding bands (pg.3)
    Finalising dates (pg.3) 
    Choosing a theme,getting flower girl & bridesmaids dresses (pg.4)
    Our 2nd wedding outfits (pg.4)
    Reception outfits (pg.5)

    Florist&DJ (pg.10)
     Jewellery for the reception (pg.10)
    Sending out invitations & getting wedding supplies (pg.11)

~*~How We Met~*~:


The way we met also is revolved around fashion๐Ÿ˜†. I was at Abercrombie and Fitch, just shopping with my best friend. Then the manager and one of the models came up to me and offered me a job.(this is typical Abercrombie style to hire employees๐Ÿ˜†).I was 17 and working at A&F seemed like an awesome idea๐Ÿ˜ƒ. I said sure, and got a time for the interview blah blah blah. The manager left but the model stayed. He introduced himself as Dino and he was 20. Blah blah blah I got the job, we started talking (more like flirting).we went out on a few dates, I found out he was half Italian and half Indian๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜ƒ!!! (I'm 1/3Italian, 1/3Indian and 1/3 Bengali!) One day at work it was super busy, I was cranky and he randomly just came to me and whispered "Will you be my girlfriend?"๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜ƒ I said yes and that just made my day, I was super happy!

 

2 years later, after Roshni got married and had the twins.Prem (Roshni's hubby), Dino, Rosh and I were talking one day . The guys brought up their dreams to become firefighters. Rosh and I didn't think they were actually serious. Turns out they were serious,they took courses to become firefighters. When Dino officially become a firefighter it made our relationship so much stronger. Then one day Roshni was going to the fire station and I went with her (I found out that week that Dino and Prem work in the same station). When we got there we saw them laughing and just having a good time. That meant alot to me because Prem's not only my cousin's hubby, he's also like the protective older brother I never had. He's also one of my best friends๐Ÿ˜Š. He told me that Dino is going to me the guy I marry

Prem was right because after spending 5 years with Dino...I'm going to marry him. ๐Ÿ˜›๐Ÿ˜›

OMG i love this!
I remember another member had started a wedding journal but never finished :(

Awwwh, its so cute how you guys met at work!
I had actually gotten a job offer at A&F on my 17th birthday ๐Ÿ˜†. OMG that was the best birthday gift ever haha. But they apparently don't hire 17 year olds anymore, you have to be 18 so i was recommended to Hollister instead ๐Ÿ˜†.


Awwwh, you and Dino have been together for 5 years? <3
And he's friends with Prem? That's awesome...how you all are in the same friend circle.

I cant wait till the next part! :D

Thanks you guys (actually girls๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†) sooooo much.
@Jess:Ya even when they offered me the job they said you have to be 18 but sometimes they make exceptions (I guess I was lucky๐Ÿ˜Š) Yup we've been together 5 years๐Ÿ˜›. Prem and Dino became friends when Prem and Rosh started going out...later it seemed like they were the couple๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†....they have ALOT in common๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†
 
@Rosh: Pffft ya right๐Ÿ˜†
 
~*~November 30th,2010: He Proposed! ~*~

We were at the park for a walk, just holding hands and talking. Suddenly I saw a bunch of lit candles. It looked beautiful! Then when I looked at Dino he was on one knee. Pffft! That's not what happened at all!!!1. It was November, it was cold, there's no chance we would go for a walk. 2. Candles wouldn't stay lit since it was cold and windy 3.Dino says that's the worst way to propose,so many things could go wrong๐Ÿ˜ฒ

We were at his condo. I was bored so I asked him if I could redecorate his room. I gave him my "But it will be great practice for me" excuse so he agreed๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ. We were just talking while I was sketching some designs I made in mind. Everything was normal, he was watching t.v while I took a break from sketching, came on I-F, watched t.v. with him, texted my mom (Yup my mommy's cool๐Ÿ˜†). Then a few hours later I was sitting on the bed looking at my paint sample book trying to figure out the color to paint the walls. Then Dino dropped something on my lap. It was a ring box with a diamond ring inside. It was a beautiful. He said "I don't know I found it on the dresser...I think it's engraved, what it says?" I was still kinda confused๐Ÿ˜•, I read it and it said "Will you marry me, Tika?"(Instead if calling me Ava like everyone else, Dino calls me Tika). I was shocked๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ˜ฒ!! I looked at Dino and he was on one knee๐Ÿ˜ฒ, he gave the most beautiful speech ever๐Ÿ˜ƒ and then said "So Tika, you ready to spend the rest of you life with this crazy firefighter?๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜ƒ" Of course I said yes!!! I didn't get one of those filmy proposals and I'm happy! I was wearing his sweatpants & a cami with my hair in a bun and with no makeup on. While he was wearing sweatpants & was shirtless๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜›. It wasn't filmy, instead it was reality๐Ÿ˜Š.

I always said I didn't want to get married before 25. I also said I didn't want to marry a cop, soldier or firefighter because I didn't want to be scared he might die every time he goes to work. Like, it's not the same being a girlfriend of a firefighter as being a wife of a firefighter (All the wives I met worry more) Just a month before Dino proposed I told him I didn't care when I got married anymore, as long as it was with him. I spoke to Roshni about marrying a firefighter a few days after Dino proposed. She told the fear is probably never gonna go away.Her's didn't. I can't stop him and make him change careers because this is what he loves doing. She told me I should be proud because I'm going to marry a hero, a hero that saves people from fires๐Ÿ˜ƒ

So here I am, 22 years old and planning my wedding with a firefighter I love more than anything. ๐Ÿ˜›
