Chandigarh: Pandemic may have thrown wedding planners from business, but love when the family opposition has given birth to a new company called “wedding shop”.
In the midst of a couple who approached the Punjab High Court and Haryana for protection in the face of a threat from a family who disagrees, Chandigarh had seen wedding shops mushrooming on his outskirts to provide everything that did not want.
From the wedding ritual at the Temple or Gurdwara to the “authentic” wedding certificate and budget shelter that promises security and privacy, no one coated on these shops to the road approach to the famous Mansa Devi Temple in Panchkula will not provide costs.
In most cases, the couple who escaped want to rush to tie the knot, gathered evidence of marriage and approached the High Court with a protection petition.
More than 100 petitions like that have been submitted every day during the Covid-19 pandemic, mostly involving the Lovelorn couple from Punjab and Haryana.
While the opposition from the family is mostly because of the caste, the credo and the similarity of GOTTRA (social taboo in Haryana), wedding shops have no limits in providing services to this pair.
Toi found that all parts that lead to the main entrance to the Mansa Devi temple are decorated with the council that invites partners to represent their marriage with the right wedding certificate.
This package is equipped with wedding jewelry, make-up for brides, photos, and even the attendance of lawyers, if couples need protection from family interference or relatives.
Wedding stores have inventory ready from all the articles needed to arrange fast weddings.
The couple was allowed to visit the temple wearing their rental wedding clothes to look for a god thanks.
Imitation clothing and jewelry must be returned after the photo session is complete.
Starting from Rs 5,100 for ceremonies that come with a wedding certificate, the package can rise up to RS 16,000 which includes rituals, services a photographer and lawyer to help couples in submitting protection in the High Court.
This wedding shop also arranged a wedding for couples who refer to them with advocates as proof of marriage help strengthen the petition.
A shop owner tells the Toi that most of the couples of marriage “need a lot of guidance”, including suggestions of roads such as wearing masks for photos to be attached to the petition.
Akhilesh Pandey, a priest who was sitting in a shop called Vaidik Poojan Kendra, his senior said – Imam Pandit Chief Rakesh Sharma – was an expert in serving such a marriage and arranged every document needed to get a profitable command from the High Court.
“Everything can be done within two days; no one else can guarantee this.
We have suggested about 70-80 marriages in a month, and some of these couples are approaching the High Court for security.” Based on service quality, wedding shops recommended by couples who are satisfied with other people like those who need similar services.
The couple Sonipat Vinay and Kiran Dahiya, who have recently been shot by the girl’s family while living in Delhi, have tied the knot through a wedding shop near the Mansa Devi temple.
