麻豆约拍

More than 10 million marriages take place every year in India, while the wedding industry - one of the biggest in the country - is estimated to be over $50bn in size. Multiple ceremonies, large gatherings, destination choices, designer wear - the list is endless, as families try to outdo each other in scale and extravagance.
