Hi gsugirl, and welcome to the blog! If you haven't noticed them already, you might try checking out the forums – some other commenters have posted their stories there, and gotten some good feedback from others. Also I have a post on my first meeting with Aditya's parents here, if you haven't stumbled across it yet.

Good luck on eventually meeting his parents – and don't worry too much! Your fiancée probably knows what he's doing in inviting you to visit them.

i am so happy i found this site. Gori Girl i find your posts to be quite entertaining! i love reading your posts since i am a african american grad student that is engaged to a kenyan east indian…he invited me to his parents home yesterday and i backed out! i am just so afraid of what i may encounter. i get clumsy and anxious, but i figured if he was bold enough to propose to me and wants me to know them well.. i have to try..I just feel that me being black is like a double whammy, considering they wanted for him an arranged marriage. im just soo nervous

I just discovered your blog today, and this is a fascinating post. I too had an arya samaj wedding last year before a 'fancier' wedding, and this post brought back old memories.

I don't even remember some of the terms you mention here! I am impressed!

Now let me read some of your older posts

No offense taken – he's a scrawny-ass little dude. I must admit, the idea that either one of seem at all pious is a little more irking.

Nice pictures. Very pious, may I say.

Why? They wanted what we here in the UK call the Hen's night where we have all the ladies and a male stripper? lol

So, finally finished catching up with your blog – no mention of any wedding details…

Do tell, at some point.

Thanks for sharing your pics, Pattu Rani! It sounds like you guys went all out for the wedding in Nepal. I particularly like the dubo grass garland – it's very interesting to see how the traditions morph a bit from area to area.
