i'm getting married on june 25 in atlanta. most of you already know my best friend and fiancee, katie fowler. there's no arguing that i'm out of my league with her...but she seems ok with it!


check out our wedding site: www.katieandsahilthebigday.com. i built it last summer with some help from my best friends august and kenny, both of whom have great skills and can probably tame a liger.


a lot of people ask about the status of the wedding plans. they're in fine shape from my perspective. i don't think weddings are that hard to plan, they just take a lot of organization and staying on top of 3-4 things every week. and that's what spreadsheets are for!!! we're actually in the most painful phase: the minutia of the actual weekend. some things are labor-intensive and very time consuming:

• writing point to point directions
• detailing the actual ceremony
  
• making centerpieces (on which katie is doing a great job)
• making invitations (thanks to katie and her girls)
• addressing invitations (my fiancee the superwoman taught herself caligraphy!)

katie and i are designing our own wedding ceremony along with dr. bobbi patterson. bobbi was my college advisor at emory and has remained a close friend and mentor since then. were thrilled when she agreed to officiate the wedding (bobbi has divinity degree from harvard and is an ordained episcopalian priest). we are combining select aspects of hindu and western wedding ceremonies. stay tuned as it develops.
