I recently attended my cousin Rahul Thapa's wedding, which took place on July 8th, 2024 in Kathmandu. The ceremony was held at the Tripa Palace, a beautiful party palace located near my home. It was a grand celebration, and I was happy to be surrounded by family and friends. I met many relatives I hadn't seen in years, and it was wonderful to reconnect with them. Rahul and I have been close since childhood, so his wedding was particularly special for me. We shared many memories growing up, and I was thrilled to celebrate this important milestone with him. The wedding was filled with joy, laughter, and dancing, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
