First off - huge thanks to our families! Absolutely none of this could have ever happened if not for the attentiveness of our moms (Anu Maa and Mama Carrie), the impeccable taste of our sisters (Anna and Ate Jazz), the silent support of our brothers (Josh, Rahul, and Kuya Dino), and the immense patience of our dads, (Ajit Daa and Papa Godo) - thanks!!!!
Invitation Art - Larsen Garma
Larsen was gracious enough to create two amazing pictures - one of a Filipino groom and another of an Indian bride - for the invitation, after my insistent begging. He is probably one of the most gifted artists I know. We only exchanged a few emails and yet he captured the mood and the detail that I had intented. Vik and I are both ecstatic to have an original!!!!!
Invitation Design - Margaux Anel-Tiangco Dra. Margaux (Margorgeous to her friends) has an awesome eye for detail. As soon as we received the artwork from Larsen, I quickly sent her a note to ask if we could work on the design together -- and she accepted immediately (on her birthday!!!!) - thanks!!! It only took her a few hours to work on it - check it out! I absolutley love it!!
Boracay Wedding Coordinator - Amanda Tirol
Any wedding in Boracay should definitely go through her - she knows all the details and definitely has the capability and quick sense to make things happen. Thanks so much, Amanda!!

Philippines Photographers - Mimi & Karl
They are definitely the best wedding photographers in the Philippines! Plus, anyone who can appreciate Vikram's Chuck Norris jokes certainly gets high-scores in our books!!
Wedding Gown Designer - Veluz
Any dress would look horrible on me, but Veluz's design certainly made me feel like I had a fighting chance =) Thanks, Veluz and Nico, for making time for us in December what with all the 40+ weddings you had to work on!!!!

GIFT REGISTRY?!
We are very grateful for all your wishes, specially for those who are traveling to the out-of-the-way locations we picked. We are perfectly happy with just the wishes. However, we have been repeatedly reminded that we need a registry, so here it is....
Despite Carina's incompetence in topics related to "Gift Registries", we have finally made progress on the Registry. My initial choice was to have a pool for a Maserati... rejected. As a second choice, I spent 2 hours coming up with (what I believed was a) very reasonable and comprehensive list of things we could do with.... denied again. Apparently, game consoles, BMW M3 steering wheels, Xbox Live memberships and a fridge-equipped la-z-boy were not good ideas.
To make it easier, we're just putting down a few places we could go and buy stuff from. We don't have an actual list of items in those places, just gift cards. Hopefully this makes it more convenient for everyone. And here they are...
You could address these to:
Thank you!
