By Daisy On Jan 18, 2022

No zoom calls, no Teams, and no Google Meet, this Tamil Nadu couple is going to set a phenomenal example of a never-seen virtual wedding this February. On the first Sunday (Feb 6) of February, Dinesh SP and Janaganandhini Ramaswamy will be hosting their wedding reception in Metaverse. The couple will customarily tie the marriage knot in the morning, but their reception will be hosted digitally in the evening.

Dinesh who is an associate at IIT madras said that this will be India’s first metaverse marriage in Polygon blockchain. Dinesh said it was his idea of hosting a Metaverse wedding reception and his fiancée, a software developer, also liked the idea.

The couple will log into a link that will take them to a virtual venue–which is Harry Potter’s Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Both Dinesh and Ramaswamy are Potterheads. The couple will meet and greet their friends and family on the virtual mode from across the world. The unprecedented marriage has collaborated with TardiVerse Metaverse startup, Dinesh informed.
