Sonam Kapoor Is Getting Married On 7  & 8 May

Sonam Kapoor’s  marriage to her  boyfriend Anand Ahuja is still in the mystery zone.Not the date. It is now  7 and 8 May.  The earlier dates 29-30 April were postponed for reasons of security and privacy.And the guests were asked  to keep themselves free on 7 and 8 May instead.

 “Guests have so so  far not been told  of any of the detailed wedding plans. They’ve only been  told to keep themselves available for  Sonam and Anand’s wedding on  7 and 8 May,” says a  source  close  to the Kapoorfamily.

 The  Kapoors did contemplate a  big fat Punjabi  destination wedding.

 “But then Sonam’s aunt Sridevi passed  away.The  festivities have now been curtailed.The wedding  would now be an intimate  affair in Mumbai followed by fairly large wedding reception in Mumbai and  also one in  Delhi for  the groom’s  family and friends,” says a  source

“There  will be no extravagance. Both Sonam and Anand are totally against  any undue lavishness at  the wedding, Initially Sonam’s parents Anil Kapoor and  Sunita insisted on a  lavish wedding. But when they saw that their  daughter and  future son-in-law were adamant on keeping it  simple Anil   agreed to set aside his fantasies of extravagance to keep the wedding simple and  sweet.”

While no details of the 2-day wedding  have been given to anyone what we can say with surety is  that  it would be a very austere unostentatious  wedding, as Sonam is a  firm believer in  the  less-is-more  theory as far as ritualistic weddings are concerned.

“She has already stated her  mind on the issue of lavish weddings at a Dubai event . Although she  didn’t say it was  about her own wedding. But the media has drawn its own conclusions.And that’s fine. The Sonam-Anandwedding will be very basic and simple. Sonam  will follow all the  wedding rituals but do away with the flamboyance and wastage,” says a source close  to Sonam.

Curiously there  is  no formal wedding invitation as  yet. Handpicked guests have only been  informed  to keep the dates 7 & 8 May unoccupied.

Interestingly rumours  of destination wedding were just that. Sonam had cut down all probability  of  a wedding abroad at  the very outset.
