I went to Trichy for the wedding reception of Advocate Prashanth. He’s not just any groom — I’ve known him since the day he was born. His father is a close family friend who never missed any of our family functions and always stood by us during tough times.

Prashanth was the youngest in our circle — always around in our get-togethers as a little boy. I’ve seen him grow, step by step, and today he’s a smart lawyer who even handles some of my cases. Seeing him as a groom made me feel both proud and emotional. It was a big fat Trichy wedding — full of people, lights, and good vibes.

Apart from the reception, it turned into a mini family get-together.

I made sure to take my kids along — I’ve started doing this more consciously. I want them to stay connected with cousins, feel the warmth of extended family, and create their own memories. They had a great time.

Even I got to catch up with my cousins, uncles, and aunties. It felt nice. These small moments matter.

We drove from Madurai to Trichy, visited my uncle and cousins, attended the wedding, and drove back. Long day, but worth every bit.

Some Saturdays are for work.
Some for rest.
This one — was for memories.
