The couple is getting married.
If either of them has had multiple partners in the past then many tests will be required depending on the date of last sexual intercourse. If they haven't had any sexual intimacy in the last 2 months then HIV 1 and 2 , and a Complete health package from a reputed Laboratory should be good enough.
