A close friend of the couple revealed a few details of the wedding. Talking about the majestic view of the gorgeous backdrop to the stunning decor, the friend gave in a bit of insight into the wedding and said:

"What took our breath away was the majestic venue - Hawkstone Hall. Steeped in history, the manor dates back to 1556 and was owned by the Crown (Her Royal Highness, Queen Elizabeth I). It has witnessed wars to balls and had been a safe house for Roman Catholic Popes during the catholic- protestant conflicts and a convalescence home to injured army officers. The 88 acres of pristine landscaped gardens housed numerous Llamas for children to play with and we guests witnessed a full-scale Falconry on the grounds. Ankur made his gallant entry on a horse drawn carriage. We were enthralled with a Royal experience!"

"They wanted to make sure the wedding has an Indian vibe to it. Hence the cuisine was Indian and there were Haryanvi folk songs/dances. There were also bride/groom games and English countryside activities."

For the unversed, Ankur had popped the million-dollar question and had proposed to his ladylove in 2020. It was on July 19, 2020, when Anuja had said 'yes' to be with the man of her dreams forever. And Ankur had shared a picture from their engagement ceremony on his Instagram handle and had announced it to the world with a cutesy caption that could be read as, "19 July 2020", followed by an engagement ring emoji.
