Security tightens up around Glenn Maxwell's wedding after event invite gets leaked online

An invitation leak has hampered Glenn Maxwell’s intentions of keeping his wedding plans hush-hush.
Star Australian cricketer, Maxwell, is gearing to get married come March. However, the wedding invitation being leaked on the internet has caused a few concerns for the couple preparing for their special day.

Maxwell got engaged to Melbourne-based Indian pharmacist, Vini Raman, in March 2020. The duo has been planning their wedding for a while now but has had to postpone it multiple times owing to COVID lockdowns.

And now finally, Maxwell and Vini are all set to tie the knot on March 27th at a private event with close relatives and friends of the couple in attendance. The guest list supposedly comprises 350 people. However, the leak has ensured that a lot more than 350 people are now aware of the wedding details.

The RCB stalwart has now spoken on the matter. He explains that the ceremony was intended to be held amongst a small gathering of people. According to him, the leak happened as a result of a few of the invitees disclosing the details to their friends.

Maxwell also states that the wedding invite has got widespread press coverage and is now all over Twitter. He further explained that they have also had to beef up the security arrangements around the venue in Melbourne, where the wedding is supposed to be held.

The wedding invite getting leaked was not ideal: Glenn Maxwell

“It was not ideal. We’ve got to get extra security for the wedding now. It was supposed to be a private event and unfortunately, the relatives over in India just got a little bit excited and decide to show a few friends. Next minute, it’s in pretty much every paper over there and I’m getting tweeted it by pretty much everyone. So that was a shock. It’s been a busy couple of days, ” said Maxwell in an interview with www.cricket.com.au

Coming to his cricketing assignments, the all-rounder is currently a part of the Australian squad taking on Sri Lanka in a five-match T20I series. The batter showed stellar form in the recently concluded third T20I smashing 39 off 25 balls helping his team take an unassailable 3-0 lead over the Lankans.

Maxwell, however, would be skipping the limited-overs leg of Australia’s tour to Pakistan scheduled to start in the last week of March owing to his wedding plans. The flamboyant batter would also be plying his trade in the upcoming season of the IPL having been retained by the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He played for them last season as well having been first picked up by the franchise in 2021.
