"We dived in at an auspicious time and exchanged our garlands along with tying the Thaali (mangal sutra)," said the couple.
Both groom, Chinnadurai, and bride S Swetha are software engineers.
Chinnadurai is a licensed scuba diver, while Swetha has been learning to dive since last month.
The couple chose to dress in traditional attire, the bride wearing a sari while the groom wearing a Veshti (dhoti), and performed the marriage rituals underwater.
