A ‘Hippie Hindu’ Wedding for a Cosmic Match
The New York Times
A family- owned micro-resort in Carmel, Calif., was the setting for Angela Braren and Gauri Manglik’s blended celebration complete with rainbow veggie tacos.
On a Friday morning in October 2018, Angela Braren and Gauri Manglik were riding San Francisco’s Muni to work together when Ms. Braren said she was struck with an urgency to propose to Ms. Manglik — her girlfriend of over four years — on that very day. Ms. Braren found herself writing out the proposal on her phone. She left work early that day and raced to a jewelry store blocks from their home that was 15 minutes from closing. She opened the door and said she told the stunned store owner: “‘I need an engagement ring for my girlfriend. Today.’” It had been love at first sight for the couple, according to Ms. Braren. They met on April 5, 2014, at a queer party called “Ships in the Night” at the New Parish in Oakland. “Gauri had an on-the-spot interview by my BFF Tori,” Ms. Braren said, speaking of her best friend Victoria Kentner. “Tori fully approved. We have been together since that first night.”
