As soon as I was born, my parents decided to name me AASTHA- Belief, Hope! Since then, I have unintentionally been able to live up to my name. I see myself as a ray of hope for my loved ones. As a wedding planner, I have been able to make couples hopeful of their dream weddings and have been able to turn their dreams into reality. Like the Sun, I try to spread the rays of hope into everyone’s lives by caring for them and loving them. Not only this, I always strive to believe in myself and fulfill my dreams. Many qualities define me. Here’s a sneak peek into the top 6 of them.
1. ASSERTIVE
I have always believed that to succeed in life, you have to be positive, confident, and self-assured. In this life full of people who try to let you down, be determined not to lose focus on your goals. That’s why I stay focused and concentrate on my work, family, health and relationships.
2. ARTFUL
I never found routine work interesting. I always knew that I had the zeal to do creative and innovative things. That’s the reason I started ‘The Wedding Journals’- India’s leading wedding magazine; ‘The Decor Journals’- one of the finest wedding decor journals in India; and ‘Kraftstar Management’- a wedding and event planning firm. My work gives me pleasure and direction in my life. I love doing artsy stuff. I think weddings can be made fun of by putting your creativity into them and I have made my passion into my profession.
3. SUNSHINE AND SUMMER VIBES
I love the Sun and all this summery. My favourite colours are white and pastel shades. As the Sun reflects and illuminates other peoples’ lives, I too try to light up the world around me. Summers is my favourite season. I try to keep my body nourished during summers by doing my most liked activities like travel, reading, keeping fit by exercising etc.
4. TENDER-HEARTED
No matter what the season is, my heart is always warm for the people around me. I think kindness knows no religion, sex, status or creed. That’s why I love animals as much as I love humans. I feel you get immense love and respect in return for the love and respect that you give to others. I believe in social work and caring for animals. It gives me peace, happiness and a sense of achievement. Try that for yourself and you will see the difference in your own life.
5. HAPPY GO LUCKY PERSON
Setbacks don’t set me back. I have seen the worst but I have braced myself, gotten up and started again. In the profession I am, failures and losses are a part of it. During Covid-19 times, we have seen a drop in the number of weddings. In fact, there were times when there was no business at all. This grave situation did not stop me from being happy. I am thankful to God that my loved ones are safe. What else does one need?
6. AESTHETICAL
I have an eye for aesthetics and beauty and that’s evident in my work. The wedding decors that I plan are full of detailing and precision. I love colours, lightings, flowers and traditional things. You can find beauty in the smallest things possible. You just have to look around.
‘There are miles to go before I sleep’ I will keep working hard and making my parents proud. AASTHA- I will be the brightest ray of hope reaching as far away as I can!
