KOLKATA: The wedding season kicked off in the city on Sunday without any pandemic restrictions — be it on the number of guests or timings — for the first time in two years. Brides and grooms who had been pushing their weddings back for months can finally get married in the presence of all family members without compromising on rituals or grandeur.
“We have a large family and our wedding date was fixed on February 7. But the third wave brought in new restrictions which limited the number of guests to 200 while we had a guest list of 750. Thus we deferred the wedding to Sunday to ensure the event doesn’t get ruined by restrictions,” said Neha Das, a techie from Behala.
