As the wedding day approached, excitement filled the air. The final details were being polished, and the buzz of anticipation was palpable. Aditi and Rohit, along with their families, found themselves juggling last-minute arrangements, ensuring everything would be perfect.
The farmhouse, chosen for its beautiful garden and spacious interiors, had been transformed into a floral wonderland. Vikram and Arvind had taken charge of the logistics, ensuring that every element was meticulously planned. From the seating arrangements to the catering menu, no detail was overlooked.
On the day before the wedding, Aditi and her mother, Kavita, spent the morning at the farmhouse, overseeing the final touches. Aditi's heart raced with a mix of excitement and nervousness. This was it—the moment she had dreamed of since she was a little girl, and now, it was all coming to life.
"Look at these flowers, Aditi! Aren't they just beautiful?" Kavita exclaimed, admiring the arrangements. "They really capture the essence of your wedding."
Aditi nodded, her eyes sparkling. "They are gorgeous, Mom! I can't believe we're finally here. It feels surreal."
Just then, Rohit arrived, his presence instantly lighting up the atmosphere. "Hey, you two! How's it going?"
Aditi turned, her heart fluttering at the sight of him. "We're just admiring the decorations. What about you?"
Rohit grinned, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly. "Just came to check in and see if you need any help. I know it's a bit hectic right now."
Kavita smiled, her eyes twinkling. "Actually, yes! We could use some muscle. There are boxes of decorations that need to be moved inside."
With that, the three of them set to work, laughter echoing through the farmhouse as they joked and reminisced. The joy of collaboration made the labor feel light. Aditi couldn't help but notice how natural it felt to be with Rohit, working side by side.
As the sun began to set, they paused for a moment, stepping out onto the patio to catch their breath. Rohit leaned against the railing, looking out at the garden filled with vibrant flowers, the glow of fairy lights starting to twinkle above them.
"It's really coming together, isn't it?" he said, a sense of pride in his voice.
Aditi joined him, her heart swelling with gratitude. "It really is. I can't believe how much everyone has put into this. It's like a dream."
Rohit turned, his gaze softening as he looked at her. "And you look beautiful, Aditi. You always have."
Aditi felt a blush creeping up her cheeks, surprised yet delighted by his words. "Thank you, Rohit. That means a lot, especially coming from you."
They stood in silence for a moment, the world around them fading away. The connection they had rekindled felt electric, each glance and smile laden with unspoken words.
Just then, Aditi's phone buzzed with a message, breaking the spell. It was from Ananya, reminding her of the final fittings for her bridal attire.
"Oh! I need to get going," Aditi said, reluctantly stepping away from Rohit. "The last fitting is in an hour, and I still need to change."
Rohit nodded, a hint of disappointment flickering across his face. "I'll help you gather everything. Let's make sure you have all the essentials."
As they gathered Aditi's things, their hands brushed against each other occasionally, each touch sending a thrill through Aditi.
"Do you have everything?" Rohit asked as they made their way back inside.
Aditi chuckled, trying to shake off the tension. "I think so, but it's hard to keep track with all the excitement."
"Well, I'll be here tomorrow, making sure everything goes smoothly," he said, his tone serious but warm.
Aditi paused, her heart fluttering at his earnestness. "You really will, won't you?"
Rohit smiled, his eyes locking onto hers. "Of course. I wouldn't miss it for the world."
With that, Aditi left, feeling a renewed sense of hope and happiness. The wedding was not just an event—it was a celebration of their love, their families, and the beautiful future that lay ahead.
The day of the wedding dawned bright and beautiful, with clear skies and a gentle breeze. The farmhouse was buzzing with activity. Aditi, surrounded by her family and friends, was enveloped in love and laughter, preparing for one of the biggest days of her life.
As she slipped into her bridal attire, Aditi marveled at how stunning she looked in her red and gold lehenga, the intricate embroidery shining in the sunlight. Her mother helped her adjust the dupatta, a few happy tears escaping her eyes.
"You look like a princess, my dear," Kavita said, her voice thick with emotion.
"Thanks, Mom," Aditi replied, her own eyes misty as she took in the moment.
"You're going to make Rohit the happiest man alive," Kavita added, pulling Aditi into a tight embrace.
As they made their way to the ceremony area, Aditi felt a wave of nervous excitement wash over her. The garden had been transformed into a fairytale setting, with flowers in full bloom and decorations sparkling in the sunlight.
Rohit was waiting at the altar, his heart racing as he caught sight of Aditi. She looked breathtaking, radiating happiness. In that moment, he felt a rush of gratitude for every twist and turn that had brought them to this day.
As she walked down the aisle, surrounded by friends and family, their eyes locked, and in that instant, everything else faded away. It was just the two of them, bound by a love that had withstood the test of time.
When they finally stood face to face, Aditi's heart soared. "I can't believe we're finally here," she whispered.
Rohit took her hands, his eyes sincere and full of love. "Neither can I. This feels right—like it was meant to be."
As the ceremony unfolded, filled with laughter, tears, and beautiful vows, Aditi and Rohit knew that they were ready to embark on this new chapter together. The past was behind them, and the future awaited, full of promise and love.
