Every winter when the cool breeze flows over Udaipur’s lakes and palaces, the city begins to sparkle a little brighter. The sound of dhols fills the air, hotels light up their courtyards, and decorators, planners, and artisans begin the beautiful chaos of what locals now call the Royal Wedding Season.
This year, the numbers are unbelievable. Between November 2025 and February 2026, Udaipur is set to host 575 destination weddings, generating an estimated ?1150 crore in business. From luxury venues to travel, décor, logistics, and hospitality, the city’s wedding industry is booming like never before.
At The Vintage Saga, we’ve seen this transformation up close. Every time a couple says “I do” under Udaipur’s golden skies, hundreds of people from florists to caterers find work and purpose.
How Udaipur Became India’s Wedding Capital
A decade ago, Udaipur was known mainly as a tourist destination. But slowly, its royal charm began attracting couples from India and across the world. The shimmering lakes, regal palaces, and unmatched hospitality turned it into a dream wedding location.
From grand celebrations at The Oberoi Udaivilas and Taj Lake Palace to intimate lakeside vows at boutique hotels, Udaipur today offers something for every kind of couple. Add to that seamless connectivity, professional planners, and local artistry, and you get a world-class destination that rivals Italy or France, but with a royal Indian heart.
The Real Impact: Weddings Boosting Lives and Livelihoods
What makes this story even more special is its impact beyond luxury. Each wedding creates employment for over 50,000 local families in the Mewar region.
From decorators and sound technicians to mehndi artists and drivers, every part of the city gets involved.
Hotels are fully booked, local transport thrives, and even street vendors see an increase in income.
Udaipur’s wedding boom is not just about grand celebrations. It’s about community growth and shared joy. It has turned the city into a living example of how art, culture, and business can come together beautifully.
A New Era of Luxury Destination Weddings
What’s fascinating is how the definition of luxury is changing. It’s no longer just about grand budgets and expensive venues. Couples today want experiences that feel authentic and personal.
As planners, we’ve noticed a rise in sustainable décor, local crafts, and personalized touches. Brides are choosing handwoven fabrics, eco-friendly florals, and traditional Rajasthani elements. Grooms are arriving in royal processions with folk musicians instead of loud DJ trucks.
This shift from “show” to “soul” is what makes today’s weddings truly unforgettable.
Udaipur’s Future: The Global Face of Indian Weddings
With luxury brands, international planners, and celebrity couples now choosing Udaipur, the city is on its way to becoming a global wedding destination.
And as proud locals, We feel privileged to be part of this journey, crafting celebrations that don’t just look grand but also create happiness for hundreds behind the scenes.
Every wedding in Udaipur is more than an event. It’s an emotion that keeps the city alive.
