Dressed in traditional Indian dresses and being read their wedding rites by an Indian priest, Katy Perry and Russell Brand finally tied the knot at an exclusive wedding ceremony in India at the Ranthambore National Park on Saturday. The ceremony was attended by close friends and family of the couple and no media or press was allowed inside for pictures or coverage. It is said to have been an intimate event and the couple, who arrived on elephants, is overjoyed that everything went according to plan.

Katy Perry, 26, and British comedian Russell Brand, 34, had been going out for almost a year now and rumors of their engagement arose a few months ago. While the ceremony was supposedly put a damper on by some altercation Brand had with the paparazzi just a few days before the wedding, the ceremony itself was a glorious occasion. Perry’s best friend Rihanna couldn’t make it to the event as she was busy recording her new album but it is said that a special room was reserved for her in case she showed up! With so much hype and media speculation, we wish the couple all the best and hope this one lasts longer than the average Hollywood wedding!
