Do you remember the flowers or the hors d'oeuvres from the last wedding you went
to? As
guests we may take the details for granted, but for the bride and groom a
wedding is often the culmination of months of painstaking planning.
East West is going behind the scenes of the
process with two
couples as they plan their weddings from start to finish. Through their
wedding
journals and photos, we’ll get to watch the wedding come
together. Read their unedited journals . . .

of California at Berkeley
David Hong, 27, web technologist
They met as sophomores at UCLA in 2000 and were engaged on December
29, 2005, at Point Loma Lighthouse in San
Diego. “With my shaky legs, I got down on one knee and
asked. ...And the crying kept on going but after wiping away the tears, she
said yes and now she is blinged out,” David recalls.

Rushina Dalal, 31, telecom engineer
They met online in early 2005 and were engaged on May 13,
2006, in a limo outside of the Arizona Biltmore hotel. “When we got into the
limo, he turned on the CD player and the song that I had always wanted as my
wedding song (Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s ‘It’s Your Love’) began to play,”
Rushina recalls. “Raj then got down on both knees — yes, not just one, but both
— and proposed.”
