Before their serendipitous meeting through a mutual friend, Priyal had initially swiped left on Herschel on a dating app, deterred by the height difference—she being 5’2″ and he a towering 6’4″. Yet, destiny had its plans, and when they finally met face-to-face, the chemistry was undeniable.

They soon went on to have a dinner date that marked the beginning of something special. Six months into their relationship, they introduced each other to their families, only to discover a delightful twist: Priyal’s father and Herschel’s uncle had been friends for over 25 years! Reflecting on the timing of their meeting, the bride shares, “Life waited to introduce us to one another when we were each ready for something great.”

The couple’s engagement mirrored their personalities—simple and intimate. “It was just us on a walk by a lily pond with the company of some good old Houston rain showers,” Priyal recalls. The private moment concluded with them returning home to celebrate with their families, marking a joyous beginning to their shared journey.

Their wedding celebration unfolded over several days in the stunning environs of Austin’s hill country at the Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa. The festivities commenced in the Hill Country Pavilion, adorned with vibrant hues of orange, green, and purple. The event was filled with traditional rituals, dancing, and even late-night donuts.

The ceremony was held on October 15, 2022, on the Hill Country Lawn with a picturesque view of rolling hills. An elaborately decorated mandap with lush pink florals provided a stunning setting for their vows. The festivities continued into the night with a lively reception in the ballroom, where the newlyweds and their guests celebrated.
