Excellent blog Jamie and congratulations on the date! takes me back to my wedding days when I was in Boston, Nikhil in Dubai and our parents were in India with the family priest looking for “auspicious” date we could get married, then they checked availability of wedding halls and lo and behold! we were informed that our wedding was on November 12. “Phew! that’s done on my to do list” i thought. Many people, many opinions, some decisions, lots of talk and lots of noise, agreements, disagreements. That was my wedding and probably most weddings. At the end, each wanted the best for Nikhil and me – in their own way – so looking back all I remember is the love and affection. You will too. Good luck and my best wishes! Please let me know if I can help in any way. seriously. cheers!
