The recent wedding of IM Sagar Shah and WIM Amruta Mokal in India was, of course, Chess-themed. The bride and groom wore queen and king engagement rings, decorations featured Chess pieces, guests signed Chess boards with greetings, and a mini-team-tournament was held pitting friends of the groom against friends of the bride. The bride’s side won!
