Tidbits
How did you first meet?
Ronak's coworker at the time and Abby's friend, Chet, invited Ronak last-minute to the annual Charity:water ball in December 2013. This is where we met for the first time, BUT we didn't become friends until the summer after. :)
Who made the first move? How?
Ronak made the first move at Little Branch, an NYC speakeasy, where he waited until their friends had gone home to ask Abby to go out on a date.
Who's going to take out the trash?
Whoever happens to be closer to the trash :)
What was your most memorable date?
We have so many, but one of the first dates we went on, we ended the night at Summit, a bar in Alphabet City. The place was mostly cleared out except for a few people, and while Ronak went to the restroom, a random guy came up to Abby wanting to hold her hand. While this was happening, Ronak came back from the restroom and gave the guy "the look". At which, the guy decided to mask his intentions by asking to hold Ronak's hand too. Hilarity ensued.
What's your favorite activity together?
We love trying new things together - whether that's traveling to a new city or trying out that new cocktail spot in NYC.
Where are you going for your honeymoon?
We're going to a lodge in the Catskills for a few days but will do something bigger after our wedding in India later this year!
What's the best meal you have eaten together?
This is a really hard question - we love food. All food. All the time. But, if we had to pick, one of our favorite meals had to be sushi at the fish market in Toyko. It might have been 10am, but it was worth it.
What's the most memorable trip you have taken together?
For Abby's 30th, we traveled to Japan for two weeks with some friends, and it was absolutely magical!

Can I bring a date?
As much as we trust your judgment in bringing fun, non-weird people to the Catskills, only those with an invite may attend.
What time should I arrive?
It is probably best to arrive shortly before 5pm, so you can orient yourself to the property, sip a mint water, pet some farm animals and find your seat by the lake.
Are kids welcome?
As much as we'd love for all the little tykes to join, we would prefer if only children under 3 attend.
Where should I park?
There is a designated parking area at the end of the road that leads to the farm. There will also be a parking attendant to direct you.
Are the ceremony and reception locations wheelchair accessible?
Yes, both ceremony and reception are accessible by wheelchair or by golf cart, for those who would prefer not to walk.
What should I wear?
Attire for the day is cocktail. No jeans, shorts, or crocs of any kind, please.
What kind of shoes should/shouldn't I wear?
The kind you love to dance in! Do keep in mind that the ceremony is outside in a grassy area.
