How fancy can a wedding be? You must have been to many lavish weddings or even heard of some eminent personalities spending a bomb on one. But have you witnessed a marriage with ‘God’ as the theme? This is what exactly happened in the town of Tanuku (in Andhra Pradesh) on October 6th.
Theme based marriages are gaining popularity nowadays. Some get married in the space while some dream of saying “yes” atop the Eiffel Tower. But the God-themed marriage that happened in Andhra Pradesh is stealing the thunder from all. The marriage saw the bride and bridegroom dress up like Gods. While the girl was dressed as Goddess Laxmi, the boy donned the avatar of Lord Vishnu. Apart from the bride and the bridegroom, the guests too were dressed in fancy attires. The girl’s parents were dressed up like King and Queen.
