The Weddings That Had the Internet Gushing in 2025

If 2025 could be summed up with a soundtrack, it would be a mix of shehnai, string quartets and the constant buzzing of social media notifications because this year was every bit the red-carpet moment for couples. It was the year when weddings transitioned from personal milestones to cultural moments that could impact how people perceived the wedding seasons to come. In its main-character energy, this year witnessed vows being exchanged against beautiful sunsets, hauntingly royal palaces and intimate temple settings. 

But the best part? This year, couples weren’t just getting married, but they were curating experiences. From intimate ceremonies that felt quietly profound to destination weddings that were so grand that they briefly hijacked the internet, every detail of these weddings seemed to represent a narrative worth remembering.

While each of these weddings was an experience in itself, some had the internet gushing over them for days-the kinds that went viral for the smallest of moments, the ones that felt personal to every person who read about it or saw it over the ‘Gram.

The Most Talked About Weddings of 2025

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez

Jeff and Lauren's wedding in Venice was like a show of modern luxury and old-world splendour. Lauren looked absolutely breathtaking in her custom-made Dolce & Gabbana dress, which was a sculpted lace mermaid with a high neck, delicate long sleeves, and an ivory tulle-and-lace veil combined with 180 silk-chiffon-covered buttons. The party was full of light and life, thanks to the participation of the likes of Oprah Winfrey, the Kardashians & Jenners, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Bill Gates, whose presence turned Venice into a vibrant meeting place for the world's most famous people.

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco exchanged their vows in front of a gathering of 170 guests in the calm of Santa Barbara. The wedding that had the internet hooked since the couple’s engagement was attended by some of the biggest names in the industry, including Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Steve Martin, Paul Rudd and Mark Ronson. With a ceremony that glowed with florals over Persian rugs, and velvet accents, Selena tied the knot with Benny in a custom Ralph Lauren gown that featured 300 hand-applied lace flowers, crystals and a secret heart motif with the couple’s initials on it. Benny complemented the bride in custom-tailored Ralph Lauren tuxedos, and his wedding band was inlaid with rubies and aquamarines symbolising their birthstones

Prajakta Koli and Vrishank Khanal

A wedding that had the internet gushing over it for days, Prajakta and Vrishank’s Karjat wedding was a silent tribute to both their Marathi and Nepali traditions where Prajakta paired her red Zari sari with a traditional Pote Mala, the Nepali equivalent of the mangalsutra. The Mala featured delicate green beads and a gold Tilhari paying a heartfelt tribute to her husband’s roots. Vrishank, on the other hand, embraced his heritage completely as he adorned a traditional Daura-Suruwal.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimoru

Another wedding that had created sparks over the internet, the spiritual profundity of Samantha and Raj's Bhuta Shuddhi Vivaha ceremony at the Linga Bhairavi Devi Temple, Isha Yoga Centre in Coimbatore, was particularly striking. Samantha looked stunning wearing heirloom-style gold jewellery and a crimson saree designed just for the wedding by Arpita Mehta. Within hours of the wedding, her portrait-cut diamond ring—a rare, flat cut from the Mughal era—went viral and became one of the year's most talked-about bridal embellishments. One of the most significant events of the year was their wedding, which was based on age-old yogic ideas of purification.

Netra Mantena and Vamsi Gadiraju

Another wedding that practically broke the internet with its grandeur, Netra Mantena’s wedding with Vamsi Gadiraju in Udaipur was a social media phenomenon. The multi-day celebration that spanned several iconic venues like the Jagmandir Island Palace and Taj Lake Palace dominated Instagram reels and stores across the globe. The wedding was attended by some of the big names, including international star Jennifer Lopez whose rehearsal and performance clips had gone viral almost immediately. The guest list also included Bollywood A-listers like Ranveer Singh, Shahid Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor and Kriti Sanon, while Karan Johar had hosted the star-studded sangeet night alongside Sophie Chaudhary.

Armaan Malik & Aashna Shroff

The foggy hills of Mahabaleshwar witnessed one of the most loved unions as Indian singer Armaan Malik and Aashna Shroff tied the knot in an intimate ceremony that embraced delicate pastels and tasteful minimalism. Wearing a custom Manish Malhotra lehenga and Polki jewelry, Aashna looked stunning. Armaan's blush pink sherwani with gold embroidery was a perfect match for her.

Anuv Jain & Hridi Narang

The beloved Anuv Jain and his wife Hridi Narang honoured their love with a small, three-day wedding at the JW Marriott New Delhi Aerocity. The mehndi was a colorful, nostalgic event with whimsical carnival-inspired features, such as balloon-shooting stations and brilliant décor pieces that captured the couple's laid-back vibe. Anuv chose a modern yet subtle outfit by Sabyasachi, while Hridi looked stunning in a classic red lehenga by Falguni Shane Peacock, enhanced with a parandi braided into her hair. Their wedding took place in a calm, tastefully designed room with lighted accents and cozy flowers.
