Some love stories begin with a single moment, but ours was written over a decade ago—without us even realizing it.
For years, we unknowingly shared the same spaces. Akash lived in Chicago and Wisconsin for nine years. We could have met at the temple in Chicago or crossed paths at the JAINA convention in LA, but fate had other plans. It was as if the universe was playfully placing us in the same places, always just out of reach.
Then came modern technology—and a very glitchy dating app. We matched, but after enduring endless crashes and frustration, we both gave up on it. Fortunately, the universe wasn’t done with us yet.
Fate stepped in once again, bringing us together through another dating app. This time, there were no glitches—just a perfect match that quickly blossomed into something magical.
From our very first conversations, Akash knew Khushbu was the one. She had a big heart, a kind soul, and an endlessly generous spirit. For the first time, Akash found himself thinking with his heart. Meanwhile, Khushbu—ever the logical one—tried to listen to her head, rather than what her heart had been telling her all along.

Our first date took place at Navy Pier, where our hearts and minds finally collided. After many special visits to that fateful spot, Khushbu listened to her heart—and said “yes” when Akash proposed to her there.
Our love was always meant to be. And our journey is proof that when two souls are destined for each other, the universe will always find a way.
Now, we can’t wait to celebrate this love—with all of our loved ones by our side.
