A lot of weddings were planned for the year 2020 and from the
beginning of the year many people were waiting for the famous
Bollywood couples dating each other to marry. On 21st of March all
these sweet dreams came crashing down as for all the Bollywood
fans it was a heartbreak not to see new wedding goals and
destinations as set by Anoushka Sharma, Deepika Padukone, and
Sonam Kapoor.
People still crave the mesmerizing Sabyasachi Mukherjee
designs, eye-catching decor, and the Panoramic view of the
destination weddings. After the outbreak of the pandemic, most of
the weddings were postponed till the second half of the year or the
next year. Amongst all-around 80% of destination wedding plans
were canceled and people were seen giving up the idea of a lavish
wedding and marrying in the simplest possible way. This might have
reduced the colorfulness and vibrancy of the occasions but
entailed an idea of a soulful traditional wedding excluding the
compulsion for lavishness. In 2020 people preferred proceeding with
the traditional ways of Kundali Matching, Engagement, Haldi,
Mehndi and Pooja if not postponing the wedding, leaving the less
important but popular things sidelined.
Along with all these marriages, some star celebrities from Television
and film industry also chose to tie knots within the year. Some of the
popular marriages are:
