Let’s dive deep into the world of celebrity weddings and analyse the evolving Indian wedding trends!
Just after a few moments of a celebrity posting about their wedding on social media through meticulously curated wedding photos, all the attention on the Internet gets directed towards them in full magnitude. Everyone can’t seem to keep their cool over their wedding details for weeks and months to come. Due to this, many wedding trends are significantly dominated by these celebrity weddings.
So what are those trends that we saw in celebrity weddings in the past year and are still seeing now (in 2025)? If the same question popped into your head too, you have definitely arrived at the right place on the Internet! Today, our team at Wedding Affair will take you on a unique fun ride through some of the most talked about celebrity weddings in the last few months. We will analyse those weddings to predict the forthcoming trends in Indian weddings!
Respecting Diversity
When the typical South Indian guy Dilin Nair aka Raftaar tied the knot with Punjabi fashion stylist Manraj Jawanda on January 31, 2025, in dual ceremonies, celebrating both their cultures respectively, it was a vision for sore eyes. Why compromise with all the fun of the vibrant festivities of Indian weddings when you can elevate it all through the perfect blend of diverse Indian cultures? This wedding honouring diverse cultural backgrounds with two distinct ceremonies: a South Indian wedding and a Sikh Anand Karaj set a perfect example for their fans to embrace the diversity in themselves to later blend it as one.

Intimate Weddings
On January 19, 2025, the two-time Olympic medalist, Neeraj Chopra took the Internet by storm announcing his wedding with tennis player Himani Mor on social media. The couple exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony at the picturesque Surya Vilas Resort in Kumarhatti, near Solan. The images shared by the Olympian on his Instagram enchanted his fans with heartwarming glimpses from his wedding. It was a three-day wedding celebration from January 14 to 16 in Shimla, and even the officiating priest was unaware of Neeraj’s identity.
This just shows how celebrities are prioritising their comfort over anything. Media consumption has reached its peak with everyone having the right to damage anyone’s sense of worth with just a few words on the Internet. That’s why, it is the right time to take mindful decisions regarding your social media exposure. And, celebrity weddings like Neeraj Chopra’s are one of the prime examples that you can have fun without letting people know about it.
Rooted Deep into Culture
Everyone was in awe of the beauty of Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya’s wedding last year in December. Surrounded by the warm embrace of the love of close friends and family, Bollywood actress Sobhita Dhulipala and Telugu actor Naga Chaitanya tied the knot in a traditional wedding ceremony on Dec 04, 2024, at the iconic Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad. The wedding venue held great significance for the groom as it was started by his grandfather, veteran late Telugu film actor and producer, Akkineni Nageswar Rao.
For the wedding, the bride and groom opted for a traditional intimate nuptial infused with rich cultural rituals. From the venue choice to the traditional wedding attire and rituals, this is one of those celebrity weddings that taught us to never forget our roots and embrace them to create precious memories to cherish forever!
Wed in India
Did you notice a common factor in all the three above-mentioned celebrity weddings? If you didn’t, let us help you! Even though Raftaar, Neeraj Chopra, and Sobhita Dhulipala are part of different industries, they all opted for a traditional wedding in their homeland, India. Not more than 10 years ago, Italy was a popular choice for celebrity weddings for couples like Deepveer and Virushka. But, in recent years, many Indian celebrities have chosen their native land to celebrate their love motivating their fans to follow the same.
