On this magical moment, the mother of the bride had something to say:

Its one of the most awaited days of my life. I have dreamt about today since the day i had held my small little mummum in my arms/ Like any mother i had wanted a fairy tale for my daughter. That someday a prince would come and snatch her away from my protective clutches. But from my experiance i knew that fairies arn't for real, they exist in a dream world and to make that dream world real first and foremost you have to make something out of your own self. you have to be at the deserving end. And I know my Mummum deserves nothing but the very very best in life. Not because she is my daughter but because shes the purest person i have ever known. people say whatever a child turns out to be in life its the doing of their parents. But in Mummum's case this is not true. I just held her hands and stood by her it was SHE who carved her own way out and held my head high at ever single step she took. She is my pride and my strength and the only real happyness of my life. When she smiles everything is right and perfect when she cries I feel like cursing Almighty for being so cruel. i want to be the one to bear all her pain and she should be the only recipient of all my joys. I definatly have done some good in my previous life that i got the honour of mothering a person as precious as her. She is not just a complete woman but she completes all our lives. her existance in all our lives is a reminder of God's kindness, shes my belief my faith the only thing which i would love to cherish even at the end of this life. Everyday i hope and pray that I get her and only her as my daughter in every single birth of myne because without her my life has no meaning. I know today I would have to bid adios to her and let go of her hand but I am not afraid I am not frightened because the man who would hold her hand from now on is a man who loves her madly. I am a very happy mother today, I had dreamt of a fairy tale for her but God gave me much more than just that, he made her find her true and real love by sending Yuvi our way. But my only head ache now is that I would have to tackle two children, one totally whacked out toh the other totally psycich, but I guess I would enjoy having both a son and a daughter now. Life definatly couldn't get any better.
😳 that's the most heart felt thing any mother could say!
Now, more importantly, the bride and groom wanted to take this opprotunity to pour their hearts out on their first offical day as one.
Ashi:
I dunno what to say. Speeches and all are not meant for me. This is perhaps the first time I am ever disclosing my emotions in front of such a big gathering and let me tell you I have butterflies in my stomach and I am hell nervous because believe it or no I am a very shy person. But I guess this day won't ever come again in my life and before I step forward and begin a new journey, I definitely have to look back into my beautiful past which would always make me smile whenever I would revisit it. Life is worth living because of the people which exist in one's life and I feel blessed to be surrounded by many such people who give meaning to my being.
My mumma just gave a typical Sonya Ray speech which is always charged up with emotions. As usual she loves seeing my eyes and nose flow. I guess in her own tears she missed that else even today she would have ran after me with a handkerchief wiping my face clean. There's no point even telling her "ki mom ab main badi ho gayi hun" coz for her I would never ever grow up and you know what Mumma I don't even want to grow up, all my life I just want to be your little Mummum. You said you would bid adios to me today well Maa let me tell you aapky itny bhi acchi kismet nahi hai coz not even bhaggu himself can take me out of your life Mom. I might be someone's wife today I might be someone's mother tomorrow, life might take a complete u turn but the only thing which won't change in my life is You and Your presence in it. You are and you would always be my one and only mumma, my father figure, my bestest friend, my worst enemy, my insight into God's existence, my will power my strength my angel my fairy godmother my everything. I never say "I love you mom" because facts and truths of life don't need to repeated they are present in every live giving breath we take. And you mom are present in every single second of my life. Iould fight with Bhaggu himself if he tries to come between the two of us. I just want to spend each and every life of mine belonging to you there's no other identity for me than being called as yours… I stand here today tall and strong and proud and smiling only coz of you Mom I am everything I am Mom because you loved me. so don't ever stop loving me Maa coz your Mummum can live without anyone but not you never you Maa never you….
And Hey Bhaggu do I really have to talk about HIM as well?? I guess I should considering the fact that this jungly bhalu would be residing in my house from now on. Well if Mom is my heart then you are the blood which flows through my veins, if mom is my breath then you are the oxygen I breathe in both of you are the tow ends of my life's chord, if any one end breaks my life itself would collapse. I know I make your life a living hell, I know I irritate and trouble you loads and I am very mean and wicked to you, I know you hate being called as psycho or a heman, I know you hate my mood swings and my overly rebellious attitude, I know our thoughts don't match so many million of times and most of the time we both are on totally different wavelengths. And I also know that you know ki I would never stop doing or being all those things. But despite all this you still love me. And i thank you for that. I thank you for being there all the times u have been and the times you understood i needed to be alone, I thank you coz you said "I Do" You proposed when i least expected…You kissed me in the metro with a compartment full of people just to tell them that you love me, to teach me that even if random people talk about us it wouldn't change anything between us...i thank you for loving me like you do. Your love is the only perfect thing amidst all my imperfections. Thank you for being the man on my life and for giving me this right that I can die in your arms because only then I would get a taste of haven.
Yuvi:
Sometimes I single line says it all some times nothing does. And today nothing can make me say how grateful I am to Her.
It would be the understatement of the century if I say I love you to her...not because I don't but because I do, I do a lot more than the words can ever say.
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints,--I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!--and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
My life was nothing when I met you, ... where as you were all set to tell the world your tale. And I hated you for that Ms Ray...
You could change the world and I was jelous of that...I was jellous of you Ms Ray. I was jealous of the fact that you didn't need anyone to love you coz had your own self, where as I was dependent on others love which i so couldn't find.Until you crossed my path...
I did not even realized when I started respecting you for being what you were and sitll are, I didnt know I was capable of. respecting anyone because i was too full of myself. Perhaps because you were the first person who wasn't swayed by my elite status and rather you had the audacity to tell me on my face that all i carried on my shoulder was fakeness. But still you saw through my fake world and reached out to the real me hidden beneath layers and layers of ruthless materialism. You believed in the real me like no one else ever did. You believed i had something good in my shallow self
You taught me to chase after my dreams, not give a damn to the world, You let me out of the mess I had made, you told me that if I can dream I can get it too...you were patient with my career my insecurities when I was not. You told me it was nothing wrong to make mistakes, that would make me only human...
You love me in a way that is not humanly possible but yet you do...
And if I say today that what I am I am because of you It won't be wrong at all
People might not belive me but honestly She is Magic. And I love her...She is my dream my music my passion my heart and I would follow her through mountains and desserts and seas and oceans because She was the one who taught me to follow my heart...
