Let’s start with the latest famous Bollywood wedding. The 2019 film Shershaah marked the first movie together for Sidharth and Kiara. Both spectators and critics praised their connection, and the picture was a commercial success. Sid and Kiara were the talk of the town for their alleged love lives for a while. The two actors had been rumoured to be in a relationship for quite some time, but neither of them confirmed anything officially.

On February 7, 2023, however, they joined the ranks of other Bollywood couples. The grand yet simple wedding took place at Suryagarh Palace, a luxurious five-star hotel located in the heart of Jaisalmer, Rajasthan.

Manish Malhotra designed the couple's wedding attire. Kiara wore a pink and golden embroidered lehenga and accessorised with a mixture of jewels and a lovely and blingy maang-tikka. Kiara Advani kept her makeup subtle with neutral eyeshadow, mascara, flushed cheeks, and glossy pink lips. Sidharth Malhotra wore a turban, a stole, and an ivory and gold bandh gala that was intricately embroidered.

Athiya Shetty and KL Rahul

After several years of dating and keeping their relationship a secret, Athiya Shetty and the cricketer KL Rahul finally tied the knot on January 23, 2023. 

The relationship between Athiya Shetty and the cricketer KL Rahul was rumoured to have lasted for close to three years. According to the sources, they began dating soon after they were introduced to one another by a common friend. After that, the two started having more frequent interactions with one another and eventually started falling in love with one another. 

The pair tied the knot on the property that is owned by Suniel Shetty in Khandala. On January 23, around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, KL Rahul and Athiya got married in front of family and friends. In front of the photographers, the couple made their very first appearance as a married couple for the very first time. They both flashed grins of joy and smiled for the camera. They continued walking next to one another while holding hands.

Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor

The Bollywood pair finally got married on April 14, 2022, after dating for five years. It was previously rumoured that Ranbir and Alia will get married at the family's ancestral home directly behind RK Studios, which is where his cousin sister Karisma Kapoor got married. However, it was then confirmed that their personal wedding will take place at Vastu in Pali Hill.

Yusuf Ibrahim, who is also Sunny Leone and Alia Bhatt's bodyguard, was in charge of the security arrangements at Vastu, which turned the venue into a fortress and ensured the presence of Mumbai police at the scene. In addition, everyone who was enlisted to assist with the wedding preparations maintained their silence with regard to disclosing any information.

Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal

Katrina and Vicky began the festivities of their wedding ceremony at the Six Senses Fort Barwara, a brand-new luxury resort in the state of Rajasthan. On December 9, 2021, they tied the knot. Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal’s guests consisted primarily of members of their families, a few close friends, and coworkers. Rajasthan served as the venue for the event's festivities.

The stunning bride was photographed as she was leaving for the event location, wearing a bright yellow outfit made by Anamika Khanna.

Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli

Another romantic relationship between a Bollywood actress and a cricket player. The wedding of Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli was, without a doubt, the most important event to take place in 2017. The wedding took place on December 11, 2017, in Tuscany, Italy, and was attended only by the couple's closest family and friends. The pair had been dating for a few years prior to the wedding.

Because the couple wanted their wedding to be a private thing, they decided to have it at a remote location. There, they were able to commemorate this momentous occasion with only their closest relatives and friends.

After the wedding, the couple made their formal announcement on social media by posting a picture of themselves with a statement that said, “Today we have promised each other to be bound in love forever. We are truly blessed to share the news with you. This beautiful day will be made more special with the love and support of our family of fans and well-wishers. Thank you for being such an important part of our journey.”

In 2015, the chocolate boy of Bollywood tied the knot with Mira Rajput, which crushed the hearts of billions of his fans around the world. The wedding of Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput became a significant craze on Twitter with the #ShahidKiShaadi hashtag, despite the fact that the ceremony took place in Delhi in complete privacy.

07-07-2015 was the date of the wedding, which was attended by family and friends. Even though the actor made an effort to keep the wedding and celebration a private affair, every media outlet was busy offering information about the wedding and reception.

The star-studded reception took place on July 12 in Mumbai, and prominent Bollywood actors such as Amitabh Bachchan, Kangana Ranaut, Sonam Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Shraddha Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Arjun Kapoor, Genelia Deshmukh, and Dia Mirza were among those who attended.

When we talk about the most famous Bollywood wedding, we can't leave out the Saifeena wedding because it took place on that day. Bollywood stars were not the only people on Saif and Kareena's wedding guest list, as the couple also invited members of royal families and political figures from around the country.

On the 16th of October, 2012, the marriage of the Prince of Pataudi to Kareena Kapoor quickly became the most talked about wedding in the country. This was especially true when the couple announced their engagement. To accommodate their guests, five-star hotels in Mumbai and Gurgaon, each equipped with a helipad, were reserved in advance.

Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai

This was the moment when Indian shaadis began to explode in popularity. In spite of the fact that their kundalis did not support one another, Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai worked thoughtfully to make their union happen. The windows on the first floor of the Bachchans' home, which is called Jalsa, have been covered with a fibreglass framework. Their other property, which is called Prateeksha, served as the temporary dwelling for the Rai family and as the location of the ceremony. It was fully equipped with an air-conditioned mandap.

Not only that but there was also a dramatic turn in the plot. During the course of the wedding, a disturbed woman by the name of Jahnvi Kapoor cut her wrists and then went outside to say that she was dating Abhishek. She was there for only a moment before vanishing into thin air. But in the end, this ended up being the most memorable wedding of the century.

Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna

Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna privately tied the knot at a ceremony in Mumbai. The event was kept under wraps. A month earlier, they had a lavish engagement party, and practically every famous name in B-town was there. Things were all set to go ahead with the wedding in February, but those plans were scrapped when Twinkle decided to accompany Akshay on a cruise liner while he was filming Ajnabi. As soon as they got back from their trip, they made the decision to get married right away.

According to reports, they had two dates on January 17 and another one in July of 2001. They chose January since, in the next several months, Akshay would be travelling to Malaysia, and Twinkle would be performing in a play across the United States. The Khannas rushed to get married, so the ceremony took place on the terrace of a friend of the family.

Ajay Devgn and Kajol

Ajay Devgn and Kajol were formerly referred to by the media as an unlikely pair, but now they are widely regarded as one of the most successful married couples in Bollywood. However, despite all the difficulties, the two stars were able to tie the knot on 24 February 1999 in a traditional Maharashtrian ceremony that took place at the Devgn home.

According to reports, a newspaper leaked the location of Ajay Devgn and Kajol's wedding, and as a result, the ceremony had to be moved from a Gurudwara in Andheri to their personal property at the very last minute. After the intimate ceremony, to which only family and close friends were invited, there was a dinner party.

Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Chhibber

Before Shah Rukh Khan was a name known for mega success, he tied the knot with the woman he had been in love with since childhood, Gauri Chhibber. During the courtship phase of their relationship, SRK was required to pretend to be a Hindu lad in order to appease Gauri's family.

However, after much difficulty, the pair was able to win over Gauri's parents and get a judicial marriage recognised during the summer of 1991. After this, there were two additional traditional wedding ceremonies, one Hindu and one Muslim, and they were both held in Delhi. It was on October 25th, 1991, when the wedding took place.

The sight of Aamir Khan’s complete family, including his ex-wife Reena, sitting and having a good time on the stairs of the red carpet at the reception was definitely one of the evening's most memorable moments.
