Signed, sealed, consumated! Katy Perry & Russell Brand are officially official! The couple tied the knot in India this past Saturday, confirmed by their rep, who had this to say:
“The very private and spiritual ceremony, attended by the couples’ closest family and friends was performed by a Christian minister and longtime friend of the Hudson Family. The backdrop was the inspirational and majestic countryside of Northern India.”
I think it’s quite nice that they’re married. They’re just this random, but adorable couple who really seem in love. I also found it nice that it was a Christian ceremony, but done in a typical bharat fashion. A bharat is a traditional Indian wedding ceremony.
the bridegroom and his male relatives and friends walk to the spot where the bride awaits. The bridegroom is often on a white horse, but an elephant is considered an even grander, more magnificent mode of transportation – the maharajas, or Indian royals, traditionally arrived at weddings on elephants.
The sound of Indian instruments – including the sitar, the santoor, the tabla and kettle drums – and the singing of traditional Rajasthani folk musicians could be heard from deep inside the Aman-i-Khas resort, along with some sacred Vedic chanting and the occasional burst of applause and cheering by the guests.
At the entrance, the trees lining the path into the venue were lit up with white and gold lights.
So sweet and exciting!!
