Rome: The day had it all - tradition, glamour, ultra-luxury and a bit of showbiz drama in the end.

The first day of Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh's two-day wedding extravaganza in Lake Como came to a bizarre end.

Some seven hours after ceremonies began at the stunning Villa del Balbianello, the newlyweds emerged from the confines of the villa accompanied by their closest family. Earlier in the day the couple had been married in a traditional Konkani ceremony in keeping with Deepika's background.

Both the stars looked magnificent in traditional south Indian attire - Deepika in an elegant peach Sari with her hair tied in a severe bun while Ranveer wore a long cream coloured Kurta suit.

Waiting for the new couple was a vintage Riva luxury pleasure boat to take them to CastaDiva resort where they and their family and friends are staying.

Much to the dismay of the gathered handful of journalists waiting to catch a glimpse of the couple however, their entourage proceeded to cover up the couple in a number of black umbrellas as they boarded and settled into the boat.

As they took off, the journalists' boats began following the couple only to be repeatedly blocked by security boats that cut in front and attempted to tip the chasing boats over.

In a separate boat, a number of photographers who had appeared with the couple began chasing the journalists' boats and taking photographs - no doubt for future blacklisting at events!

Earlier in the afternoon, with the chant of 'Har Har Mahadev' and 'Ab Yeh Vivah Sampann Hua', at 1.05 PM Italian time, Bollywood stars Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone were declared man and wife at the beautiful Villa Del Balbianello overlooking Lake Como in northern Italy.

The Konkani ceremony stretched for more than 5 hours.

The couple was surrounded by friends and family members dressed in white attires on the villa's famous patio overlooking the lake. The venue was decorated with hundreds of white roses.

At the same time a number of large boats were seen at the villas main peer in preparation to take the guests back to the luxurious CastaDiva resort across the lake from the Villa del Balbianello.

Also at the same time, a beautiful vintage EURO 500,000 Riva Tritone vintage boat appeared at the villa. The captain of the vessel told us that he would be taking the couple back to CastaDiva in ultimate Italian luxury and style.

They'll certainly appreciate the comfort offered by the boat for they will return to the Villa tomorrow to do it all again, this time in a Sindhi ceremony in celebration of Ranveer's heritage.

14th December - certainly much to the joy of blockbuster Bollywood couple Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone – began sunny and bright, as the eagerly anticipated wedding of the two young lovebirds got underway at the stunning Villa del

Balbianello on Lake Como, Northern Italy.

Guests began arriving very early in the morning and had gathered on the villas world famous patio for today's Konkani wedding ceremony. A group of 30 or 40 guests stood around the railings of the patio, shielding the couple who were seated on the floor as the strains of a pandit's chanting stretched across this most bucolic of locations.

Security was extraordinarily tight as small powerboats manned by beefy security guards sailed round and round the smaller boat filled with journalists in order to unsettle and potentially tip them over. It was not a pleasant feeling to be rocked by the waves created by the security boats.

The main dock of the villa as well as the patio itself was resplendent in hundreds of white roses as the sun shone bright and beautiful for Bollywood's hottest young couple.
