OUR STORY
HOW WE MET
Dovev crashed a dinner party one Saturday night and there Kavita was. They talked and flirted all night and hit it off from the start. As they say, the rest is history!
THE FIRST DATE
On a first date the rule is to plan a 3-5 hour date with no way out, right? Right! Then a underground party it is! and lots chatting and drinking
THE PROPOSAL
Picture this instead:
Kavita thought it was just her birthday.
Dovev had told her to get dressed up for a night at CÉ LA VI—good food, great views, and a celebration worthy of another year around the sun. Nothing more, nothing less. Or so she thought.
As the evening unfolded, the city glittered below them and the atmosphere buzzed with warmth and anticipation. Then, in a quiet moment carved out just for the two of them, Dovev took her hand. The noise faded, the crowd disappeared, and suddenly it was only them.
He looked at her—the woman he loves, his partner, his best friend—and before she could piece together what was happening, he got down on one knee.
It wasn’t just a proposal. It was a surprise wrapped in intention, love, and perfect timing. And when Kavita said yes, the night transformed.
What followed was an unforgettable engagement celebration surrounded by 40 of their closest family and friends, all gathered to share in the joy. Laughter filled the room, glasses clinked, and an incredible dinner set the tone for what quickly became a full-blown party. As the night went on, more friends joined, the music grew louder, and the dance floor came alive.
But the magic didn’t stop there.
The celebration carried on to Dear Darling, where the energy only intensified. Dancing, drinks, and pure happiness stretched into the early hours of the morning—all the way until 5 a.m.—with love and laughter fueling every moment.
It wasn’t just a proposal.
It wasn’t just a party.
It was a night that marked the beginning of forever—
a birthday turned engagement, a surprise turned celebration, and a memory Dovev and Kavita will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
Truly, a night to remember
