Most of us still crush over the surreal pictures of Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s nuptials in Italy. Indian weddings in foreign locations indeed leave an impeccable mark. But, the stately charm and worldliness of the luxury hotels in India are no less than a dreamy backdrop for glamorous ceremonies. Be it north, south, east or west, the country is dotted with lavish hotels that have hosted some of the most iconic celebrity weddings.

When we talk about destination weddings in India, the list of the best properties is only growing and there’s a reason why. Research by money.co.uk, last year, revealed that India topped the list of the most preferred wedding destinations globally. We are not surprised.

In the year 2022, Kerala bagged the title of the “Best Wedding Destination” at India’s Best Awards (IBA) held by Travel and Leisure India and South Asia. Rajasthan was awarded the same title in the year 2021. Goa, Gujarat, Hyderabad, and Maharashtra are some other prominent Indian locations with world-class hotels that have hosted some of the most beautiful weddings of renowned personalities.

If you are also planning your dream wedding and looking for a venue, here are some hotels that have hosted weddings of Bollywood stars and many other famous celebs.
