Desert weddings in Rajasthan

History, chivalry, romance and colour, in the old kingdoms of Rajputana.

Rajasthan is where history, chivalry, romance, rugged natural beauty and colour all meet. Long after the warring kingdoms sheathed their swords, the desert remains romantic, its architecture an embodiment of strength and grace.

Choose the dunes of the Thar for your ceremony, or a desert palace for the whole celebration. Contemporary Rajasthan is an explosion of colour and pageantry, and it suits every kind of couple.

  • Dunes at sunset

    A ceremony on the sand as the light turns orange, with nothing around you but the Thar.

  • Desert palaces

    Heritage resorts and star hotels in old palaces, chosen for their history as well as their comfort.

  • Folk music and dance

    Rajasthani dancers and musicians perform through the evening, and the ghoomar is never far away.

In certain venues we provide the ceremony only. Ask us what is possible at yours.
