The inclination towards getting their beloved celebrity to wish & bless them in their marriages are a normal phenomenon here. The usual suspects of celebrities are the Actors & Politicians.
But mostly as they would not be in a position to reach up to these celebrities & get them to come over to bless them, they use their pictures and announce their wedding.
I’m thinking why this is become a part of our culture recently, any answers?

mere publicity, nothing else! may be they think, it may not attract many folks to look at the posters – without some popular stars in there!!

Oh, wow! This is certainly a very unique story. I still find it weird to ‘advertise/acknowledge’ weddings by utilising celebrities photos! =D
Ram: Yes BH, we ourselves find it still unique & weird
