Who could have thought just a few months ago that the most essential element of a wedding someday would be a ‘mask’ or the idea to practice social distancing at a social event would be the need of the hour?! Ever since the outbreak of the covid pandemic, the unimaginable and unthinkable has suddenly become the new normal. From virtual weddings, to micro ones, sanitizer booths and D-I-Y backdrops, the current circumstance has witnessed it all! To know of lockdown weddings where the bride and groom got hitched via technology from two different parts of the world with blessings from the priest who was in a third part altogether is not surprising anymore.

As the current scenario worldwide, calls for safety first, the scene back home here has also been particularly refreshing and responsible! Refreshing because Indian marriages are synonymous with extravagance and zeist. However, most new-age Indian couples have gracefully embraced this change and those who didn’t want to wait further to tie the knot, have gotten hitched in the most exciting and cautious manner. They have proved that minus the paraphernalia for them, all that matters is love 🙂

We came across some such couples and have put together their moments for you to take a look:

Pyaar karne se nahin roka hain, par ab social distancing ka mauka hain!
