🔧 Branch Conflicts Resolved

   className="sr-only focus:not-sr-only focus:absolute focus:top-4 focus:left-4"
   aria-label="Skip to main content of the page">
  Skip to main content
</a>

// HeartCollage with accessibility wrapper
<div role="img" aria-label="Romantic collage of Incia and Arvin's memorable moments together">
  <HeartCollage />
</div>

// Enhanced structured data for SEO
"@type": "Event",
"name": "Incia & Arvin's Wedding Ceremony",

  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": "23.8103",

This heading level creates an incorrect heading hierarchy. Since the main title 'Incia & Arvin' is h1, this should be h3 as it's a subsection within the hero section, not a primary section heading.

Manually adding a tag in layout.tsx is unnecessary and potentially problematic with Next.js App Router. The metadata export already handles head elements automatically. This could cause duplicate head tags or override issues.
