    Best celebrity wedding proposals

    Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas

    Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas will always bethatcouple. Nick shut down an entire Tiffany & Co. store to find the perfect ring for Priyanka Chopra. The proposal itself happened in Crete, Greece, where Nick got down on one knee as the sun set over the Aegean Sea, making it a dreamy and intimate moment.

    Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh

    It’s only fair that the proposal story of two of the biggest Bollywood stars of the moment was as cinematic as it can get. During a holiday in the Maldives, Ranveer proposed on a private beach adorned with candles and flowers. This was followed by an extravagant celebration at Lake Como, Italy, where the couple tied the knot.

    Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor

    In an episode ofKoffee With Karan, Alia Bhatt spilled the beans on how Ranbir Kapoor proposed during a magical African safari. Ranbir chose the scenic plains of Masai Mara, Kenya, to pop the question. With the stunning landscape and wildlife as witnesses, the proposal was both intimate and adventurous (not to forget, perfect for pictures on Instagram as per the bride's explicit wishes!)

    Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom

    On Valentine's Day, Orlando Bloom took Katy Perry on a helicopter ride that ended with a surprise proposal. The chopper landed on a rooftop, where a romantic dinner awaited. The breathtaking view of the city lights added a magical touch to the unforgettable evening.

    Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja

    While Anand Ahuja had grand plans of proposing Sonam Kapoor while being surrounded by old books in one of the best libraries in the world, the ultimate proposal went a whole different way. It happened when they were in New York City and Sonam was having the worst day by her own admission. Anand went down on one knee in the middle of the street and popped the question. Just like in the movies *swoon*!

    Meghan Markle and Prince Harry

    It’s no secret that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s love story seems straight out of an unrealistic fairytale book. The proposal, however, was charmingly simple but one for the books. Prince Harry proposed to Meghan Markle during a quiet night at home, while they were roasting a chicken for dinner. This low-key and personal moment, in their cosy cottage, showed that sometimes, the best proposals are the simplest.

    Ed Westwick and Amy Jackson

    In March 2023, British actor Ed Westwick proposed to actress Amy Jackson during a romantic getaway in the English countryside. The proposal took place at a charming, historic estate, surrounded by blooming gardens and tranquil landscapes. Ed got down on one knee during a picturesque sunset, making the moment both elegant and heartfelt.

    Lily Collins and Charlie McDowell

    We’ve all seen, and swooned over, Lily Collins magical wedding ceremony and her ethereal outfit, but the proposal story makes it even better. Director Charlie McDowell proposed to her  during a vacation in the mountains of New Mexico. He chose a picturesque spot near a waterfall, making it a breathtaking and memorable moment. Lily described it as the "purest joy" she had ever felt.

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.
