It was truly a food haven for all the guests who had specially driven hours to make it for this event with a closure to Khaike Paan.
The evening ended with an unplugged Sufi band overlooking the mountains, everyone
sitting on the lawns with a candlelit setting and the cold wind blowing. It was a
sight to adorn. The highlight of the evening was the couple taking pictures with
their 3 babies, their 3 pet dogs.
All in all a story that shall forever remain close to our hearts.
