Love afloat: Shreyas Mehta of Flashmob Nation proposes in style
December 11th, Dubai, UAE: Life’s journey is sweeter when shared. Both Shreyas Mehta and Ashley Presbitero discovered recently that in the pages of their love story, they weren’t just companions but each other’s missing pieces – a realization that set the stage for a proposal as unique as their bond.
In a picturesque setting of love and creativity, Shreyas, actor, model and founder of Flashmob Nation, created a moment to savor. Shreyas’ proposal to Ashley unfolded in a breathtaking setting, weaving together elements of surprise, adventure, and profound connection.
The stage for this memorable proposal was set on the shores of Jumeirah beach where Shreyas took the art of proposing to new heights – or rather, to the open sea. A transparent boat, adorned with vibrant flowers, sailed them into their new chapter during a gorgeous sunset that punctuated a magical moment.
The moment was a hat tip to the serendipitous circumstances in which the two first came together despite hailing from very diverse backgrounds. Ashley, who has American and Peruvian roots, first crossed paths with Shreyas at a clinic. Fate brought them together again six months later at a restaurant, which marked the beginning of a new journey that has been a harmonious blend of energy, taste, and a mutual commitment to personal development.
“We both share the same idea about growing each other,” Shreyas explains with glee. “I like to grow in terms of mindset and life, and she has the same perspective. That’s why we became very strong together. She’s always up for improvement, which I really appreciate.”
As they set sail into this new chapter, Shreyas and Ashley tell the tale of a love that transcends boundaries and celebrates the beauty of finding completeness in one another.
