Wedding is a special day in the life of a man and woman. But a celebrity wedding is just as big for those covering or reading about it.
The year 2012 saw some of our hottest stars give up their single-hood to marry the loves of their lives in star-studded affairs.
Here's a look at the big, fat filmi weddings of this year.

Despite a 10-year age gap and several doubts, the Saif Ali Khan-Kareena Kapoor romance flourished and turned into marriage when the duo opted for a registered legality, preceded by a sangeet party, and then a grand reception in Mumbai and Delhi attended by famous friends like Shah Rukh Khan, Karan Johar and Anil Kapoor.
