WeddingSutra Survey Highlights Rising Costs and Trends in India's Luxury Destination Weddings
WeddingSutra's 2026 Luxury and Destination Weddings Survey reveals Udaipur's palace venues have become unaffordable for many high-net-worth individuals during peak season, accessible mainly to ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Rajasthan remains India's top destination wedding market, with Goa and Kerala also popular. Rising trends include hometown and near-metro weddings, and growth in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities supported by improved connectivity and new luxury hotels. JW Marriott Ranthambore Resort Spa opens its first full season as core zones of Ranthambore National Park reopen, offering diverse accommodations for nature-focused travelers.
