Pictures from Dia Mirza's wedding with Vaibhav Rekhi

Dia Mirza has shared several photos from her wedding ceremony. The wedding was solemnised by a female priest, which broke the stereotypical norms surrounding marriage. In an Instagram post, she thanked the priest saying, "The highest point for us was the Vedic ceremony conducted by a woman priest! I had never seen a woman performing a wedding ceremony until I attended my childhood friend Ananya’s wedding a few years ago. Ananya’s wedding gift to Vaibhav and me was to bring Sheela Atta who is her aunt and also a priestess, to perform the ceremony for us. She also painstakingly went through several hours of training to imbibe the essence of the scriptures so that she could assist Sheela Atta and translate the shlokas! It was such a privilege and a joy to be married this way!"

She added saying, "We do hope with all our heart that many more couples make this choice. For it is a woman's soul that contains love, wonder, benediction, magical energy, tenderness and deep empathy for all that lives. It is time for women to own their own agency, their divinity, their power and to redefine what is old and birth what is new. As Charles Bukowski said, 'there is no lie in their fire.'" She also said that scrapping the rituals of "Kanyadaan" and "Bidaai" for a more modern approach to the rituals.
