Indians are known to have large, traditional weddings that
are often extravagant. But when it comes to Bollywood weddings, the grandness
and overindulgence often touch dizzying heights. These weddings create a buzz
long before the D-Day, thanks to the massive fan following that majority of
B-town celebs enjoy. It’s not just the couple that we watch with keen interest,
but take note of every aspect of the wedding – from clothes to jewelry and wedding
invites.
Yes, Bollywood weddings are the stuff that fairytales are
made of, where the couple treats themselves and their guests like royalty,
throwing moderation to the wind.
Let’s take a look at how Bollywood celebs pulled out all the
stops to make their gala weddings an affair to remember:

Wedding Invites –
When every guest comes under the
scanner at a Bollywood wedding, it’s goes without saying that invitations require
intense attention to detail too! Shahid Kapoor and Mira’s wedding invitation was
in a turquoise and cream combo, enclosed in a similarly elegant coloured box containing
four tiny bottles of best quality honey and exotic herbal teas. While Vivek Oberoi
and Priyanka Alva had their cards made from crushed gemstones and real gold and
sent them with chocolates and a limited edition Ganifa painting in a jewelry
box made of velvet. It is said that the wedding invites were Rs. 7000 each.

Opulence –
It isn’t called a “big fat Indian
wedding” until there is an ostentatious display of wealth. Vikram Chatwal and
Priya Sachdev arranged for private jets to pick up guests from different
countries while Abhishek-Ashwairya wedding is rumoured to have helicopters
throwing flowers on guests.
While many celebrities chose to have their wedding
in their own luxury residences, some preferred to get married at a five star
hotel or having a destination wedding.
Whether at private residences, nearby cities or international
destinations, these events sparkled with big names and grandeur – with exotic
cuisine and entertainment that made the headlines for weeks to follow.
