Samantha-Raj, Prajakta-Vrishank & More: INSIDE Celebrity Weddings of 2025

As 2025 draws its curtains, it leaves behind a year filled with love stories that stepped out of private corners and into shared moments of joy. Actors, singers, creators, and industry insiders chose to celebrate commitment in ways that felt deeply personal yet beautifully public. Some weddings were quiet and spiritual, others vibrant and star-studded, but each one reflected the couple’s journey, their roots, and the kind of love they chose to honour.

Here’s a year-ender look at the most memorable celebrity weddings of 2025, capturing not just the ceremonies but the stories, aesthetics, and emotions that made each union special.

Armaan Malik and Aashna Shroff

Singer Armaan Malik and fashion influencer Aashna Shroff began the year on a heartfelt note by tying the knot in January 2025. After a seven-year relationship and an engagement in late 2023, the couple opted for an intimate ceremony in the serene hills of Mahabaleshwar. The setting mirrored their personalities, calm, warm, and away from noise.

Aashna’s choice of an orange Manish Malhotra lehenga brought a refreshing vibrancy, while Armaan kept it soft in a pastel sherwani. What truly stood out were their handwritten vows, which spoke of growing together, choosing each other every day, and building a shared sense of belonging. Later, Mumbai receptions brought together close friends and industry colleagues, but the heart of their wedding remained rooted in intimacy. Their song “Tu Hi Mera Ghar” quietly became the emotional thread of the celebrations, symbolising a love that finally found its forever space.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimoru

One of the biggest surprises of the year came in December when actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu married filmmaker Raj Nidimoru. After years of professional collaboration and quiet speculation, the couple confirmed their relationship through a deeply spiritual wedding at the Isha Foundation in Coimbatore.

The Bhuta Shuddhi Vivaha ceremony focused on energy, balance, and mindfulness rather than spectacle. Samantha wore a handwoven red silk saree, styled with minimal jewellery and grace, while Raj kept his look understated. The guest list was limited to family and close friends, and the photos shared later reflected peace rather than pomp. Their journey from collaborators on projects like The Family Man 2 and Citadel: Honey Bunny to life partners felt organic, grounded in mutual respect and shared creative rhythms.

Prateik and Priya Banerjee

Actor Prateik Babbar married Priya Banerjee on Valentine’s Day 2025 in a ceremony that was emotional and deeply symbolic. Held at Rock Cliff, the Mumbai home of his late mother Smita Patil, the wedding was less about tradition and more about personal truth.

Both chose ivory ensembles by Tarun Tahiliani, with Priya in a gold-toned lehenga and Prateik in an open sherwani paired with a dhoti. The guest list reflected Prateik’s inner circle rather than extended family, a choice that sparked discussion but was later clarified by Priya as intentional and rooted in love and loyalty. Shortly after the wedding, Prateik adopted the name Prateik Smita Patil, a gesture that quietly honoured legacy, memory, and identity.

Raftaar and Manraj Jawanda

Rapper Raftaar and stylist-actor Manraj Jawanda brought together traditions in a way that felt seamless and celebratory. Married on January 31, 2025, in Thiruvananthapuram, the couple embraced both South Indian and Sikh rituals.

The ceremonies included a mangalsutra ritual and an Anand Karaj, reflecting both their backgrounds. Manraj’s bridal looks ranged from a rich Pattu saree adorned with temple jewellery to regal Punjabi attire, while Raftaar complemented each ceremony with traditional ensembles. Their Instagram announcement, playful yet proud, captured the tone of their wedding, personal, rooted, and full of joy.

Darshan Raval and Dharal Surelia

Singer Darshan Raval married architect and entrepreneur Dharal Surelia on January 18, 2025, and the internet couldn’t get enough. Their story, rooted in friendship, unfolded through colourful ceremonies and music-filled moments.

Darshan serenading Dharal with “Meri Pehli Mohabbat” at the sangeet became one of the year’s most shared wedding clips. Dharal’s bridal wardrobe moved between a pink saree and a classic red lehenga, while Darshan opted for elegant sherwanis. The warmth of their bond, visible in every shared smile, made their wedding feel less like a celebrity event and more like a celebration of companionship.

Aadar Jain and Alekha Advani

Aadar Jain and Alekha Advani’s wedding celebrations unfolded across two cities and cultures. Beginning with a beachside Christian ceremony in Goa and followed by a grand Hindu wedding in Mumbai, their union reflected a journey that began in childhood and found its way back years later.

Alekha’s red Sabyasachi lehenga paired with emerald jewellery stood out during the Mumbai ceremony, while Aadar wore an ivory sherwani. Surrounded by the Kapoor family and close friends, the celebrations felt celebratory yet sentimental. Their proposal in the Maldives in 2024 and their public confirmation in 2023 set the stage for a wedding that blended nostalgia with new beginnings.

Anuv Jain and Hridi Narang

Singer-songwriter Anuv Jain’s wedding to Hridi Narang on February 14, 2025, felt like one long love letter. Held in Delhi, the celebrations were layered with personal details, from a carnival-themed mehendi to a haldi ceremony honouring Hridi’s South Indian roots.

The wedding itself became unforgettable when Anuv performed “Jo Tum Mere Ho” as Hridi walked down the aisle. Hridi, founder of a sustainable candle brand, has long been a muse in Anuv’s music, and their union felt like the quiet culmination of shared creativity, patience, and growth.

Prajakta Koli and Vrishank Khanal

Content creator and actor Prajakta Koli married Vrishank Khanal on February 25, 2025, in Karjat. Their wedding was earthy, intimate, and deeply reflective of their Marathi and Nepali heritage.

Prajakta wore an Anita Dongre palm tree lehenga and a Nepali tilhari necklace, while Vrishank donned a traditional daura-suruwal. The rituals blended cultures seamlessly, from Nepali customs to Maharashtrian traditions like wearing her mother’s sari. After dating for over ten years, their wedding felt like a gentle affirmation of steady love and shared history.

Siddharth Chopra and Neelam Upadhyaya

Siddharth Chopra’s wedding to actress Neelam Upadhyaya on February 7, 2025, was filled with warmth and family moments. Held in Mumbai, the ceremony saw Priyanka Chopra walking her brother down the aisle, a moment that resonated widely.

The celebrations included vibrant pre-wedding rituals and a cosy reception attended by close friends and family, including Nick Jonas and Nita Ambani. The couple’s first public appearance post-wedding showed them relaxed and glowing, marking the start of a new chapter grounded in togetherness.

As 2025 comes to a close, these weddings feel like more than just celebrity milestones. They reflect how love in the public eye is slowly becoming more honest, more rooted, and far less performative. Gone are the days when grandeur alone defined a “big fat” wedding. This year, intimacy mattered. Meaning mattered. From quiet spiritual rituals to multi-day celebrations filled with music, culture, and memory, each couple chose to honour their story in a way that felt true to who they are.

Some couples celebrated legacy, others chose healing, and many blended cultures, families, and faiths with grace. There were songs sung straight from the heart, outfits that told stories of heritage, venues that carried emotional weight, and guest lists that prioritised love over optics.

Together, these unions painted a fuller picture of the industry in 2025. One that values companionship as much as chemistry, friendship as much as romance, and personal truth above noise. As fans, we witnessed not just glamorous ceremonies but real beginnings. And as the year signs off, these weddings leave behind a quiet reassurance that love, when chosen with sincerity, still remains the most powerful headline of all.
