Thereafter, Virushka was trending on the social media and it seems like the world collectively is cheering and congratulating the dazzling pair. What is commendable is how they successfully guarded this news until they were mister and missus. Being one of the most famous celeb couples, being zipped from the media about such big news like their wedding is itself a difficult or we can say, next to impossible task. Unlike other celebs, the duo kept the news secretive and later gave us more than we expected, is something really appreciating.
But how they planned and what made them turn from will they-won't they to they finally did?
As per the reports by India Today, the two families met and discussed about their wedding in Sri Lanka while Virushka kept the entire world busy by flooding their gardening photos on social media. As per their family priest, December was the ideal time and hence, the preparation began.

The duo kept the news secretive whenever they spoke about each other. In one of the interviews, when asked about her personal life, Anushka had mentioned that she wants to focus on her work and not her personal life. On the other hand, Virat’s post about his to-be-wife kept the media busy with his adorable words. Such a smart way to keep the world busy, without putting the limelight on their wedding preparation, right?
On the day of the wedding (December 11, 2017), Yash Raj Films revealed to the world that the wedding has taken place and that the media was misguided as the couple wanted to keep it a private affair. He was quoted as saying:
“We are very happy to announce that Ms. Anushka Sharma and Mr. Virat Kohli got married at a private ceremony in Italy, today. The wedding was attended by close family and a few friends as they wished their wedding to be a very private affair. The wedding was performed as per Hindu rituals. Top fashion designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee has designed the wedding ensemble for both the bride and the groom. Virat and Anushka will now start inviting all industry friends and colleagues for the celebrations that are set to happen in Mumbai.”

Everything from the gestures by the duo after exchanging rings to wedding looks, from Anushka’s grand bridal entry to the décor and not to miss, their royal looking classic outfits, everything scored high, making it a super-exclusive wedding of the year.
