One of the country’s favourite on-screen and real-life Bollywood couples, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone had been together for more than half a decade before they decided to get married in what could be touted as the perfect example of a big, fat Bollywood wedding. The two followed Virat Kohliand Anushka Sharma’s suit by whisking away to the idyllic locales of Italy in November. Spread over a couple of weeks, the nuptials began with a sangeet, and were followed with a Konkani wedding and a Sindhi ceremonyin a luxurious villa at Lake Como. The celebrations rounded off with a grand reception at Padukone’s hometown, Bengaluru, and two receptions in Mumbai that saw some of Bollywood’s biggest stars, from Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Kareena Kapoor Khan to Shah Rukh KhanHrithik Roshan, Anushka Sharma and many more, in attendance.

Nickyanka, as they are now called, sealed the deal with multi-cultural functions across Jodhpur, Mumbai and Delhi—packed with celebrity guests, multiple outfit changes, a palace venue and everything else you can possibly think of—a 75-foot wedding veil included. With details such as these, it came as no surprise that Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas’ nuptials made for one of the Googled weddings of the year. A vibrant mehandi function at Jodhpur’s Umaid Bhawan Palace began the festivities, followed by a fun-filled sangeet that also included performances by Chopra Jonas’ cousin Parineeti Chopra, Jonas’ brothers Joe and Kevin, as well as Joe’s fiancĂ©, Sophie Turner. An Indian ceremony, complete with a mandap and a Sabyasachi lehenga, was preceded by a traditional Christian wedding, where the duo’s marriage was officiated by Jonas’ father. Three receptions later—one in Delhi, which saw Prime Minister Narendra Modi making an appearance, and two others in Mumbai—the couple is now enjoying their time together as newly-weds.

What happens when a businesswoman and heiress to one of the wealthiest families in the world ties the knot with a billionaire scion in a multi-city, multi-function, multi-crore wedding ceremony? India certainly found the answer to that question this year. Ahead of the star-studded wedding, the Ambanis also hosted pre-wedding celebrations at Udaipur’s Oberoi Udaivilas hotel, which included a private performance by none other than BeyoncĂ©, who was flown in specially for the festivities. Other celebrity performances here included showcases by the likes of Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Karan Johar and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. After all the fanfare, Isha Ambani finally tied the knot with Anand Piramal at the bride’s residence in Mumbai, with luminaries like Hilary Clinton in attendance. This was then followed by two grand receptions at BKC’s Jio Gardens in Mumbai
