With India currently under a 21-day lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, most couples have either called off the wedding or postponed the dates.

A merchant navy officer from Mumbai, met Neet Kaur, from Delhi, got married over online video-calling platform Zoom.

They held a small ceremony in the presence of around 50 friends and family, who also joined the ceremony using Zoom. "Our relationship has been nothing short of an adventure. Neet was the first to get down on one knee and pop the question but I told her I needed more time. Once I made up my mind, she got a mind-blowing surprise when I took her to a gorgeous restaurant, got down on one knee with a ring in my hand and proposed to her. Coincidentally, on the same day, she surprised me by gifting me a jar full of 100 hand-written notes of reasons why she loves me. So it wasn't surprising that our wedding too had to happen in a unique way," said Preet Singh.
