6Rajasthani texture pass — Hawa Mahal
jaali in the sky and countdown, fort kangura parapet, jharokha number tiles, Sanganeri block-print buti and a
marigold toran over the families, miniature-painting borders on the events, handmade-paper grain
throughout.
Some stories feel like they were written long before they began.
Ours started in London in 2022, where we had both gone to pursue our master’s degrees.
Deshraj grew up in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and Pavani in Saharanpur,
Uttar Pradesh, two corners of India that might never have crossed paths had we stayed home. But
destiny had other plans.
Chapter two 16 November 2022
The beginning
On 16th November 2022, a common friend introduced us, and what
began as a simple hello soon turned into the closest of friendships.
Chapter three
Becoming each other’s person
We laughed, explored, leaned on each other, and slowly found that
we had become each other’s person.
Chapter four 2025
From friendship to forever
In 2025, our friendship blossomed into love. Because the best kind
of love is the one that begins as friendship: it is patient, honest, and comfortable in the
quiet moments, and it grows stronger with every shared laugh.
We found our home in each other, and we couldn’t be happier to
celebrate it with all of you.
