Verified first, then trust

These are illustrative journeys showing how families use RishteDesk. They are not real couples, and the photographs are stock images. Real stories will appear here only with each couple's permission, in their own words. Married through RishteDesk? Share your story →

Our promise

Every story here is real, or clearly labelled

Consent from both

A story is published only when both people have agreed, and the platform will not publish one without a consent record.

In their own words

We never write a success story ourselves. We may shorten one, and we show the couple the final version first.

Your privacy first

First names or initials are fine, photos are optional, and a story can be removed at any time on request.
