Couple buys house instead of wasting money in lavish wedding, gets married inside new flat

In a refreshing departure from the growing trend of extravagant weddings, a young couple has won hearts on social media by choosing long-term security over short-term spectacle. The couple decided to invest their savings in purchasing a new house rather than spending lakhs on a lavish wedding celebration, and solemnised their marriage in their newly bought flat.

Careful Evaluation

According to sources, the couple had initially planned a traditional grand wedding, complete with elaborate decor and a long guest list. However, after carefully evaluating the rising costs of wedding venues, catering, and decorations, they chose a more practical and meaningful alternative. Their priority, they said, was to begin married life with stability, independence, and peace of mind.

The wedding ceremony was held in the living room of their new flat, tastefully decorated with flowers, diyas, and minimal traditional decor. Close family members and a few friends attended the intimate event, which followed customary rituals and blessings.

Wedding In Living Room

Videos and photographs from the ceremony, showing the couple performing wedding rituals surrounded by their bare walls, quickly went viral online.

Social media users have widely praised the couple for their sensible and mature decision, calling it ‘financially wise’, ‘emotionally grounding’, and an inspiration for today’s generation. Many netizens pointed out that the rising pressure to host showy weddings often pushes families into debt, while this couple’s choice reflects changing priorities among young Indians.
