One month….

This is exactly one month that we got married! Sorry, couldn’t write any posts or pages for a month since we were quite busy with hectic traveling and visiting relatives and friends!

On the outset, we sincerely thank everyone who took some of their valuable time and joined us both for our Wedding at Tanuku and reception at Bangalore! Thanks a lot for your blessings, they really mean a lot to us.

Here is a quick update on how the month it was!

On 24^th June, 2011, we got married and started our journey of life! We are really excited! Early hours of 25^th June, we left to Guntur (House of Vasu’s Uncle Shri. Marthanda Sharma) and next two days were a lot of fun in the midst of several relatives and knowing families of each of us. On 27^th June, we performed Shri. Sathyanaraja Vratham, a very auspicious event after the wedding. Thanks to Vasu’s uncle, Vinay (Vasu’s brother), Ramu (our nephew) and Shyam (another Pundit Ji), who performed this even in a highly vydic way! Also, we thank all our relatives for having joined us.

On the same day evening, we left to Tanuku to give send off to Hema’s Sister and brother-in-law Mrs. Deepthi and Mr. Kalyan Chaitanya, who left to Hyderabad and then to Italy! We are sure, they both are having awesome time over there! On 29^th Vasu’s mother and grand mother visited Tanuku and in the evening, we had a great photo session (some are uploaded and some are yet to, watch out for link). We have received a great send off from Hema’s family (a difficult situation for Hema’s mother but she gave us send off with a lot of love and blessings) and boarded train to Bangalore. Hema did enjoy her first travel in AC 2 tier. Reached Bangalore on 30^th June and got busy with preparation for our reception. On 1^st July, we have seen a good number of friends and well wishers in the reception (missed many more though) at Nandana Palace, Domlur and returned home at 11 PM and yet had a lot of fun with another cup of tea along with Vasu’s brothers, sister-in-law! What a memorable moments it was.

On 2^nd July, we left to Tirupathi for holy darshan of Lord Venkateswara and we felt so blessed and lucky that we managed to have Darshan in just 20 minutes for about 5 to 7 minutes and Hema’s Aunt suggested, we went to Kanipakam and there too we had a great Darshan of Lord Vinayaka! Wow, what a great energy that Vasu’s grand mother has. She was going all around to collect Prasadam etc. Also, we can’t forget the memorable dinner we had with Vamshi’s family at Tirupathi. We are thrilled by the love of Vamshi’s parents.

Further we went to Tanuku to celebrate our 16 days festival then to Maniknagar for Holy Darshan of His Holiness Shri. Manik Prabhu. Later, we spent a day at Hyderabad at Vasu’s brothers house and also had darshan of His Holiness Shri. Rajasekharam. With his advise, we have recently visited Udupi to have Darshan of Lord Krishna. Not to forget, thanks for the hospitality we have received at Rama (Vasu’s aunt) place specially to her daughter Miss. Bhavya, who took us all over the temples and to other relatives.

Well, how can we forget the experience of Hema’s first air travel and our memorable trip to Lunavalla and Pune. Only sad part, due to an unavoidable reasons, we had to cancel our Shirdi Trip.

Alright, signing off now to celebrate our first month anniversary! Meanwhile, visit our Pictures on Flickr
