Memories Procured in Betrothal

 Memories Procured in Betrothal

22nd Aug 2021, The day we bound. That day means a lot to me. I couldn't express that day with words. But I controlled my mind and I am going to write my feelings through phrases.

Hilarity Amped Up!

Around 3.00 p.m, I entered the marriage hall, I was in a mixed state of excitement and trepidation. The groom's family was on the way to the marriage hall. My eyes kept on roaming for him, though I knew he had not yet arrived.

Freezing!

Thereafter, the photographer approached our family to click the shots of the bride. We also agreed.  Yes, of course, the photo shoot of the bride began. Actually, I was fond of posing for and taking shots. So, I rejoiced at the moment.

Blued Sun!

Likely at 4.00 p.m, the groom's family stepped into the hall. I remembered he wore a casual t-shirt. He looked fabulous in that t-shirt. He planned to change the costume in mahal. Finally, he was in his Betrothal attire like a Blued Sun.

Shied Like a Moon!

Again photographer approached our family to shoot the shots of the groom and bride together before the ceremony began. We also acknowledged. But I got a blush when I saw him and also I shied like a moon.

First picture as Together!

His stature was 6 feet. I looked short in front of him. So, the photographer planned to stand me on the steps of the forum for balancing the stature of both. Finally, we took our first picture together. The surroundings were buzzed and they started to make us laugh while the photo shoot was going on.

Ceremony began!

Around 6.00 p.m, the ceremony began. I was taken into the stage forum by my sister-in-law (My Brother’s Wife). At that stage forum, my betrothal saree was catered by his family members. I got it from them. And I changed my apparel.

Amidst the gatherings!

I was again taken to the stage forum by his sister. I elicited the greetings with the gesture of praying hands, that is both hand palms pressed together. All the gatherings tended to me. My heart beat was on an express swift. I was amidst the stagnant people. 

Time came!

The time came to do the main heart of the ceremony, which is the flowered my hair by his sisters. I sat on a bride's chair. And his sister flowered my hair with Jasmine. 

Robust with Ring!

Afterward, my man was called upon to the stage forum. There he put a ring on my hand for enhancing our relationship. My heart was in bliss at that moment. During that time, the relatives twist and pop the party blasters, and confetti stuff inside the party blasters was spurted all over our faces.

Gift with Sweet!

Then, he presented a smartphone along with a bunch of chocolates to me. I said thank you to him with awe. Afterward custom events happened. The relatives were taking shots with us. And my mother-in-law introduce their relatives to me. Soonly, the arena was emptied and the gatherings were gone for dinner.

Foliage!

Thereafter photoshoot began for us. We both seem to be nervous. But the photographer convinced us to do posing for the shots. Those were foliage memories.

Time for Savor!

We photographed for a time. Then, we moved for dinner. We both sat and ate. Again also photographer made stills while I fed him food and vice-versa. We both laughed while doing that stills. Every moment flashed thrive in my memory.

Mounting Joy!

After finishing dinner, we spent some time together. He asked me to text him. And then, we had a conversation with his relatives and my relatives. The time fled nimbly. I experienced a holistic joy with him.  

Alluring rain!

Finally, the ceremony was finished with rapport. Soon all the relatives were gone to their shelters. The groom’s family members also took a leave from the hall. He conveyed his goodbye to me. I also said goodbye to him. Outside the hall, the rain started to pour heavily. I enjoyed the alluring rain in the memories of him. 

Call!

Around 11.30 p.m, he made his first phone call to me. I picked up the call, and he said “Reached home Abarna”. That was our first phone call conversation. I wafted in the air at that moment. And I said, “ok”.  I got an augmented feeling, that I was never experienced before. Finally, that night ends with a sleepless night.

This is how my betrothal ceremony was held. The most memorable ceremony ever in my life.
