Food menu which will bring all sorts of mouth watering cuisines ? Everything of that sort sounds fantastic but have you ever thought to perform your wedding ceremony underwater? Yes I am serious , not kidding at all !
As this couple from Kerala has decided to go off beat and took their water baby label on themselves to a whole new level , because they got hitched underwater.
A 23 year old Eunika , a Slovakian by nationality and her fiancé Nikhil Pawar, a Maharashtrian, dressed in their wedding attire under a diving gear has just got married under the water of the great Arabian Sea.
The entire underwater wedding was organised by the Bond Ocean Safari , this 90 minute wedding ceremony was attended by close friends and family members. This is the 1st underwater Indian Wedding which took place in Kerala.
They organised the under water wedding by creating a special stage in the deep blue sea made up of coconut palms, wood and leaves.
Couple exchanged their rings and wore a garland made up of sea shells as a part of Christian Ceremony. The bride was dressed in a beautiful white gown holding a fresh bouquet of red roses.
All the verbal exchanges were performed with the help of placards. And in case you are wondering how did the couple held their breaths under the Arabian Sea , they went for a 2 day long training in diving & breath control prior to their D – Day.
Nikhil , the groom who is a diving master at the Bond Ocean Safari in Kovalam , pulling off this underwater wedding was not at all a difficult task.
The couple added the aww factor by sharing a kiss after their underwater wedding ceremony.
Nikhil Pawar told about his underwater wedding to The News Minute
We always wanted to do something interesting for our wedding and Eunika agreed when I proposed the idea of an underwater wedding. She is a regular traveller and a diving enthusiast and quickly learnt everything and found no issues underwater.
We first met 7 months ago in Kovalam , she went back to her native town and returned a month ago. Wedding was surely not in the plan then but we were confident of taking our relationship to the next level , hence we decided to the take the plunge!
The couple also stated that they will have another formal wedding ceremony in Slovakia.
