Yes, I did

Damn it! I did it, yes, How can I dare to do so? Oh...My... God... what have I done, what am I getting into... pffff.

Yes, I was screaming inside after daring to say YES to my parents to kick off my marriage process. Yes, I did. I thought they would never find any girl at least for a year. Regardless of my open challenges (which was also recorded by my brother-in-law Vasanth), my parents have managed to find a girl sooner than expected. I must blame my Grandpa, he was the master mind behind this deal. Now, there is no looking back. At last, I made up my mind and got over the difficult part.

Yes, I got over the difficult part. Did I really? hmmm, as most of you, I doubt it. One of my friend said to me, "The difficult part of my life is yet to begin" (I will remember those words for my life). Yeah, it is difficult to imagine myself as a family person, how will I be? Only God knows. Whoops! Do I know him? I can only remember the saying "In this world, any unknown is named as God", well, in that case I know him.

Uhhhh! enough of boring speech, I got to go now, have too many things to be done prior to the occasion. Jewels; dress; formalities; food; procedures; stage decorations; photo; video; accommodation; travel; money.... aaaang! most importantly, the invitation.

Since I have already fractured myself enough, doctor advised not to strain too much for some time. So, thought of an e-invitation this time. When it comes to that, the options are endless. Yeah! thought about...
A puzzle unfolds the details of the marriage as you solve them.
Inviting with a funny story in flash animation.
A youtube video invitation.
...and more.

However, as always I found an excuse of not having enough time to make any of the above... hence, here I invite...

First of all i have to say congratulation for your marriage kari... Nice to hear when you are saying im getting married(you are worried na ha ha)!!!..


Now you are in the edge of the enjoyment ;-)..

Enjoy the movement don't loose any seconds before marriage...(Good joke na :) ).

Marriage is like a lifetime mobile(remember that mobile don;t have any money to make call. Simply we can say like only incoming no outgoing)... So you entering into your marriage life you can't escape...

ok kari i don't like to bore you as well i don't like to make you to cry :) im stop my words here..

Reall Start here:
Wedding is the most scared union of two hearts and souls forever in a revered nuptial knot. It not only marks the beginning of a new phase in one’s life but also has much more meaning related to it..

My greatest wish for the two of you is that through the years, your love for each other will so deepen and grow, that years from now you will look back on this day, your wedding day, as the day you loved each other the least.

Happy married life boss...

Don't worry be happy...

Always be happy, no worries will come near by you..

Anyway i am very happy and very eager to see your marriage..

with Love,
Ganesh.T

Hi Kari, so you did it. You did it. Great and congratulations. You really really wanted it, so it happened sooner. Correct, isn't it? But the future is not what you think. It will be very bright, prosperous, healthy and loving .... ALWAYS.

Hi Kari,

Great news! :) Sounds like an adventure! Congratulations on it. I hope you will be very happy.

Sachin Singhi said...

Dear sir,

Many congratulation to you. :)

Stuart said...

Wow!!!! Congratulations! Am so very happy for you. Now you get to experience life as a married man. I promise you it's better than a single man and the future is bright. As I am sure you understand it's not going to be very possible for me to be in India but I look forward to seeing the photos.

Manikanda Prabhu said...

Congrats karikalan, Thanks for inviting.

Antonio said...

Hola Kari!

I'm deeply sad to not being able to be there for your big day, but it's almost impossible for me to planify an escape to India from here in 15 days time. Along with Jose I remember our work-times in London when we promise to be celebrating your wedding whenever it happens, I guess at least he'll be able to make it.

At the same time I'm extremely happy to know you are finally taking this step you were longing since I met you.

All the happiness for you both. Love, patience, care, communication and support in a well mixed combination is all that you need for this adventure, I'm sure it'll be more than you've ever dream of.

I hope we can meet soon, we have so many reasons to hug each other :)

All the best...

Hi Maple,,,

How to challenge the threats in married life?

In Physics you might have read the concept… Anyway am recalling….

Existing family members are like the planets in the universe… All are rotating and travelling in their paths with the already regulated / fine tuned gravitational force. Inserting a new person (planet) in the universe (family) is a difficult task. Coz, the new planet will have its own gravitational force…. That may affect the smooth travel of other planets…. So insertion needs a trick…. Finding the trick is the success core of running the family with happiness without any major problem….

I have mastered in that subject(?) and I derived a simple method. You have to regulate the gravitational forces of the planets individually …. Did I start disclosing the secret… in public….. That may affect the successful running of my family……… for 23 years including the 10 years in joint family initially???? No… please let us discuss in person……. If you need…

Managing people is an interesting subject for my Maple…..

I dare! You can do it……. again………

Evvalavo Pathutteenga… Idhappaakka Matteengala?

You will do it….

Mama.

Hi Kari,

congratulations ! That are great news, I am very happy for you :)
Thank you very much for your invitation that I appreciated a lot. Unfortunately I won't be able to come over to India as it is too less time to organize but I hope you will provide me with pictures and/or videos of the occasion.

All the very best
