#Throwback: The Big Fat Celebrity Weddings Of 2018

From DeepVeer to Priyanka and Nick, 2018 saw some big celebrity weddings.

2018 saw quite the number of high-profile weddings that everyone went gaga over. While some celebrities dropped the news suddenly, others decided to involve their fans, announcing details on social media and of course sharing much-awaited photos.

There were four big fat Bollywood weddings this year — Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja, Neha Dhupia and Angad Bedi, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh and, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas.

Apart from the Bollywood celebrities, shuttlers Saina Nehwal and Parupalli Kashyap also got married this year. Wrestler Vinesh Phogat and Somvir Rathee too tied the knot in 2018 and shared beautiful pictures on Instagram.

Here’s a throwback to the high-profile weddings of the year:

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas

Chopra and Jonas got married in December 2018. They had two beautiful wedding ceremonies — a Hindu ceremony and a Christian ceremony — at the Umaid Bhavan Palace in Rajasthan’s Jodhpur on 2 and 3 December.

For their Christian wedding, the couple and their families wore bespoke Ralph Lauren outfits. Social media went gaga over Chopra’s 75-feet long veil and it also became a meme.

The Hindu wedding took place at the Umaid Bhavan palace grounds, with the Mehrangarh Fort as the backdrop. Chopra wore a Sabyasachi lehenga for her wedding.

Prior to the Hindu wedding ceremony, Chopra and Jonas had traditional mehendi and sangeet functions. The couple wore outfits by designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla for both the ceremonies.

Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja

Kapoor married her long-time boyfriend Anand Ahuja in an intimate, yet lavish ceremony in May. They got married according to traditional Sikh customs at Kapoor’s aunt’s Bandra bungalow and later hosted a reception at The Leela Hotel, Mumbai.

Kapoor, known for her being a fashionista, chose Anuradha Vakil as her designer. For the wedding, Kapoor wore a traditional red lehenga. Photos of the wedding were all over social media with everyone from Karan Johar to Karishma Kapoor sharing them on Twitter and Instagram.

Here are some photos from their ceremonies:

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh

Unlike Sonam Kapoor’s wedding, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s wedding was a private affair. The couple had two ceremonies on 14 and 15 November in Italy’s exotic Lake Como. The couple managed to keep the paparazzis out and later shared a few images from on their respective social media accounts.

On 14 November, the couple had a Mangalorean wedding ceremony, followed by a Sindhi wedding ceremony on 15 November.

Padukone and Singh wore Sabyasachi designs for most of their ceremonies.

The couple also hosted a reception each in Bengaluru and Mumbai on 21 and 28 November. Here’s a look at the couple’s special day:
