Wedding Party

Ashley Thomas

Maid of Honor

Hi, I’m Ashley, one of Tulsi’s college friends! I was lucky enough to meet Tulsi early on during college and we’ve been close friends ever since! We went from long nights at the library together during college to even working at the same place for our first jobs. To my forever favorite fellow foodie, I can’t wait to see you walk down the aisle! I love you both and I’m so excited to be able to stand by you on your special day!

Andrew "Chewy" Crespo

Best Man



Jasmine Davis

Maid of Honor

Hi! I’m Jasmine, one of Tulsi’s college friends! I can’t believe Tuls and I have known each other for 10 years and celebrated so many life milestones together (birthdays, graduations, falling in love!). She has always been such an important person in my life and a true friend that I can laugh and cry with. It’s been beautiful watching Tulsi and Neal’s love grow over the years. They truly are a perfect match and balance each other out so well. I’m so honored to stand by Tulsi’s side on her big day and excited to continue to witness Tulsi and Neal’s love story!!

Groomsman

Hi, I am one of Neal's college friends! I met Neal in 2014 at Rutgers when APO took over my apartment. Next thing you know we're neighbors in New Brunswick, tailgating football games together. Since then, we have vacationed to so many places, celebrated a number of birthdays, and (my favorite) eaten a ton of exciting food. It's crazy to see how much we've grown over the last few years, and I'm so excited for Neal and Tulsi to make this next milestone. I wish them a lifetime of fun, fancy restaurants, and happiness together.

Payal Naik

Bridesmaid

Hi! I’m Payal, Tulsi’s first roommate and best friend in college! We have grown up together and have learned the true meaning of love and friendship with each other. I have always treated Tulsi as my little sister and I can’t wait to support her on the most beautiful day of her life! I love you so much Tulsi G!!!

Groomsman

Hi, my friendship with Neal goes all the way back to college when I first met him at a party that we had at our apartment. Over the years our friend ship just grew over questionable and degenerate decisions. I feel our friendship continues to became stronger and grow as we rely on each other for guidance and support over our regular nightly conversations on Xbox. Throughout the past decade I can whole heartedly call neal one of my best friends and I can be any more excited than I am right now to be here to support him in this next phase of his life!

Elizabeth Kuriakose

Bridesmaid

Hi everyone! It's your girl Lizziekayhay! I first met Tulsi at SHU in 2013 and I am lucky to call her one of my closest friends after over a decade of friendship!! We have had so many amazing memories together full of laughter, tears and everything in between. From day one, Tuls has always been such a kind and loyal (and sassy!) friend who goes out of her way to show love to the people she cares about. I would always look forward to her cooking when we lived together in college (shoutout @tulsistastybites) or homemade Gujarati food from home. I am so happy that Tuls has found her other half and cannot wait to watch her and Neal take the next step in their lives. I love you both and can't wait for the big day!!!!

Hi, I actually met Neal after our time at Rutgers when a mutual friend brought him along to my 24th birthday party. Although we didn’t talk much that night (we did more drinking and dancing than anything), I’d end up seeing more and more of him over the following months and eventually he became a really close friend. I consider my time after college in New Brunswick to be a memorable period in my life and Neal was around for many of the core memories that I fondly look back on. Since then, we’ve made even more great memories traveling together (Nashville, Austin, Miami, Vegas and counting!), hopelessly rooting for RU football (we still haven’t gotten that signature win), and celebrating special moments such as the one that took place on October 29th, 2022 when we celebrated his engagement to Tulsi!

Neal/Tulsi, I’m truly looking forward to making more memories together and being there to celebrate your next big step. Congratulations!

Manoli Patel

Bridesmaid

Hi! I am Tulsi’s cousin, Manoli. Tulsi is basically like my older sister that I never had. One of my most favorite memories of us from the good old high school days, when Tulsi would come to Ilion and my mom would make her eat Gujju food. And she would only eat it because it was my mom. Of course, I can’t forget all those times when Tulsi would come to drop me off at the airport for my India trips during college with her throwback Hindi playlist on. I got married back in 2021, right during Covid, and Tulsi was there through it all. So now I can’t wait to see her get married to the love of her life as well!

Groomsman

Meet my dear friend, Neal, a bundle of joy and laughter who's about to embark on the beautiful journey of marriage. Through the years, we've shared countless moments of fun, teasing, and even raised our voices at each other. Despite the occasional yelling, our bond remains unbreakable. As Neal takes this significant step with Tulsi, I couldn't be happier. Here's to a lifetime of love, joy, and being there for each other through thick and thin. Cheers to the newlyweds!

Dhanvi Patel

Bridesmaid

Hi I'm Dhanvi, one of Tulsi's younger cousin. I was born and raised in India until the age of 12, when I moved here. Yet I was always in Tulsi's life, whether that be through talking her ear off as a kid on the phone from 1000s of miles away or through seeking advice from her growing up in the States. I love Tulsi with all my heart so when it comes to celebrating Tulsi & Neal you know I'll be bringing the life of party with me!!

Hinesh Rana

Groomsman

My relationship with Neal goes back to the day he was born. I've had the pleasure of seeing him grow from a little boy to the great bearded man he is now.Some of our favorite memories together were spent traveling to different countries, BBQing in the backyard, staying up late nights chilling in the basement trying to beat him in pool.

From the moment he met Tulsi he’s known it was always going to be her. I can’t wait to see him enter this new phase in his life. I couldn't be more excited for the two to them to begin their own journey together as husband and wife!

Nikki Patel

Bridesmaid

Hi I'm Nikki, Tulsi's almost-twin, born just a day after. Best friends since the day we were born, our summers were inseparable visiting each other during middle and high school, creating memories that time can't erase (shoutout to six flags, talking about boys, trying to chase a bee from tulsi's house, and pretending to be Priyanka Chopra singing Lal Dupatta) From helping me move to NYC and Boston and consoling me when I needed much needed advice to being my BIGGEST cheerleader, she's been by my side for every major event. I cannot imagine life without her. Now, I'm thrilled to celebrate her finding "the one." Here's to a lifelong twin-ship and new beginnings!

Krishna Patel

Bridesmaid

Hi! I’m Krishna, Tulsi’s cousin (technically niece). We grew up down the street from each other and I have countless fond memories of snow days and going for long walks and hikes together. She is one of the most supportive and genuine people I know and it brings me so much joy seeing how happy Neal makes her. I could not be more excited for the wedding!!

Hi my name is Anam, Tulsi's childhood best friend. I met Tulli on the bus ride home after her first day in middle school after she moved to Chappaqua. We exchanged numbers and quickly became best of friends. I grew up with her and cherish the memories we have made together. Our friendship has stood the test of time and distance and she has always been a constant in my life. I can't wait celebrate her big day with her and see her start this next chapter in her life!!
