The media has given us a lot of love lately! And it’s kept the Press page on our blog busy – with so many updates! — In yesterday’s HT Brunch, I got mentioned along with my husband!

The votes are in. Over 1500 of you voted! Yes, 1500+!!! It was quite a roller coaster to watch the poll unravel as there was no clear winner for the first day or two. But towards the end, it got clearer who might win. Or, was it?
This is how we voted for the How I Met Your Father giveaway –
1,506 votes came in. Thanks to everyone who took out the time to read the stories and voted!
There were a lot of concerns about how someone with a greater “social media” standing might win on factors not based on their love story. Although I think we took care of that with over 1,500 votes (a lot of variety!), we still put together a panel of people from my entrusted circle – friends, family & fellow bloggers! Here they are…

We announced a very special giveaway last week – you send us your love story, and the winner (who is chosen via public voting) wins a a pre-wedding shoot with Tarun Chawla, my wedding photographer! Voting closes 10 August, 2013
The last of the entries poured in on Sunday night, and honestly, it was the toughest job to pick just a few for the shortlist. You poured your hearts out to us, and it kind of broke our hearts a little to have to select just 4 out of the 28 beautiful love stories. But we gotta do what we gotta do. So without wasting any more of your precious time, here’s what you have to do:
The couple that gets maximum votes wins the pre-wedding shoot with Tarun Chawla! Winners will be announced 11th August.
Tarun & a panel of trusted people will also vote (they’ll have a slightly higher weightage), but your votes will count a lot as well!
…in no particular order. You’ll have to vote for any one of the 4 at the end of this post. Remember to read all 4!
With Russia in the backdrop, this is Kartiki’s college romance of how a jock boy fell for a bookworm girl and how he finally managed to get her to say yes!
Ours is a med school love story spanning over almost a year. At the ripe age of 17, I left home for a medical education in Russia. Little did I know that right beside me on the bus from Moscow Continue reading “Voting Open! How I Met Your Father Giveaway: The Shortlist”

The days leading up to the wedding were chaotic. But in the midst of all this chaos, I was meeting the groom every single day! He’d come over for Sangeet practice, we’d head over to the market to buy a gift for him for Sagan (we bought gifts according to the recipients’ choice, which basically … Continue reading thedelhibells: Pre-Wedding Shoot
