Chandigarh 14^th July:- All of us have heard of the Big Fat Indian Wedding! Well, here's the very first big wide (angle) Indian wedding made possible by the stylish and powerful Lumia 730 that features a high definition wide angle 5MP front camera to capture the big Indian families in one frame. Wedding celebrations have always been counted as the most precious and special moments of one's life and wedding photography has come a long way from becoming a tick mark in the wedding preparations to becoming an art and a specialization in itself.

Add to it the latest trend of taking and sharing Selfies and you are in for a whole new experience. Marrying the zeal of today's modern couples with the latest social media phenomenon of Selfies, Tonk who works under the brand name, Think Tonk came up with yet another trending concept #SelfieShaadi. Seeing couples taking selfies, Tonk decided to weave in selfies to wedding photography and ditched his DSLR to use the Lumia 730 to document the first ever wedding in selfies. The Lumia 730 which comes equipped with a wide angle 5 MP front camera became Tonk's companion to shoot the wedding.

 Think Tonk and Microsoft scripted the #SelfieShaadi concept, the first ever selfie wedding in India. #SelfieShaadi was conceptualized as an online contest that invited entries by soon-to-be-married couples to win a chance to play the protagonists in India's 1^st ever Selfie wedding. The competition was won by the NCR-based couple Ankit and Prachi. Ankit Agarwal, employed at Landmark Group in United Arab Emirates, and his wife Prachi, a Fashion Designer, who tied the nuptial knot recently are excited about starring in the country's first-of-its-kind #SelfieShaadi and are sharing their experience with their friends and family members on social media platforms.
