… I take off my wedding ring and forget it at home. I get a call this morning from Heidi that basically went something like this:

Sujal: Hello?

Heidi: Are you trying to tell me something?

Sujal: What are you talking about?

Heidi: Are you trying to tell me something?

Sujal: What the hell are you talking about?

Heidi: Forget something?

At which point the light bulb goes on. Funnier still, I tried to play with my ring and was startled when I felt skin instead of metal. I guess that means I’ll probably play with it even after we’re no longer newlyweds.

My wedding was this past weekend, yesterday to be precise, and I have a collection of photos up on Flickr. I don’t have pictures from every event. It’s hard to be the photographer when you’re also the host. I have more photos coming in from friends and family, including the two below from my cousin. He took some phenomenal pictures, by the way, and I’m hoping to link to all of them soon.

I’ll keep this post updated with as many links as I get sent with photos from my wedding. Enjoy!

Clicking any of the sample images will show you a large image (1600×1065, about 400K).

Wedding Pictures at my Flickr Account

• Our Wedding: Sun-Wed - Lots of hiking, biking, and mingling.
• Our Wedding: Thurs-Fri - Wedding events, including bachelor hike and bride’s mendhi, and our “rehearsal” party/garba/dance lesson.

• Our Wedding: Epilogue - Pictures from post-wedding portion of the trip

I’ll keep adding links and we’ll be writing more about the whole wedding later.

So much stress now that we’re within 72 hours of the big day. Details everywhere left to get tied up, but we’re also trying to entertain all the guests every day up until the wedding. It’s been a chore to say the least, especially since Heidi and I both are the hands on type that try to minimize how much we ask of others. We’re quickly learning that delegation is as (or even more) important for weddings as it is in our jobs. It is, pretty much, the only way to keep sane.

It hasn’t been too bad, though. Especially when our days are filled with hikes or bike rides that lead to gorgeous views like this:

There is so much beauty in this one park that it’s more satisfying than Zion or anything else out there. There’s something to be said for a park that can be explored on foot, on bicycles, and via horses.

A selection of pictures from the first half of the wedding week is up at my Flickr account.
