Preparations are Underway!

Wedding Programs

This weekend Nicole worked with family and friends in Virginia to create home-made wedding programs.  Many thanks to Mohan's sister, Malini, and friends of the couple:  Mary Kadzielski, Annelies Lindemans, and Greg Martin.  On day two of the program making festivities, when Nicole was ready to give up, these intrepid volunteers continued to solider on!



Wedding Favors

The wedding favors are what Mohan really got into!  He ordered everything and then somehow convinced Nicole, and his entire family, Ved, Johanne, and even Malini, that it'd be a fun activity to do together!  After multiple nights of working (which wasn't so bad given that his father, Ved, is a good cook and would make us dinner!) we shipped them in advance to Nebraska.

Mints

It's a tradition in Nicole's mother's family to always have home-made mints with the wedding cake!  Nicole's aunt Ann Engel (center - holding Nicole's favorite niece Tatum), assisted by her aunt Karen Bohac (at right) and sister Kelly Mann and mom Leona Neff (at left, respectively) and cousin Robyn Stroeh (who is taking the photo).

Indian Clothes

Both Mohan and Nicole will be wearing Indian clothes at Friday's rehearsal dinner.  They traveled with Mohan's family and some friends to New Jersey, where they stayed with friends and went to a bunch of Indian clothing stores to find the perfect outfits!  The clothes were then made for us in India and just arrived in Virginia a few days ago!

The wedding is certainly coming up soon!  We hope you are ready!
