Kerala Wedding Planners — Backwater & Beach Weddings
“Kerala asks for restraint. The setting is already complete — our work is to frame it with light, flowers and silence, not to compete with it.” — Akaansha Sidhwaani, Director, Design & Styling
Where the landscape is the décor.
Kerala — “God’s own country” — is the antidote to the palace wedding. Its appeal is the inverse of Rajasthan: instead of fort walls and gold, you get still backwaters, coconut palms, spice gardens and a green that photographs like nowhere else in India.
DreamzKrraft designs Kerala weddings for couples who want their celebration to feel intimate and serene rather than vast. Houseboat ceremonies on the Kumarakom backwaters, lantern-lit dinners under palm canopies, and beach sundowners at Kovalam form a gentler register of luxury.
Kerala’s strong Ayurvedic and culinary heritage adds a wellness dimension few destinations can match — we build in spa experiences, sadhya banana-leaf feasts, and kathakali and theyyam performances that root the celebration in local culture.
Signature Venues
Kumarakom Lake Resort
Vembanad Lake · Heritage Villas · Up to 300 Guests
Set on the edge of Vembanad Lake, this heritage-villa resort offers meandering waterways, traditional Kerala architecture and a private backwater frontage for ceremonies as the sun sets over the lake. Best for: serene backwater weddings and houseboat ceremonies.
Taj Bekal, Kerala
Backwater & Sea · North Kerala · Up to 400 Guests
A serene property where backwater meets the Arabian Sea, with houseboat-inspired pavilions and expansive lawns. Its dual water setting gives couples both lagoon and ocean backdrops within one venue. Best for: couples who want both backwater calm and sea views.
Kovalam Beachfront
Arabian Sea · Beach Ceremony · Up to 500 Guests
Kerala’s most celebrated beach belt, where crescent coves and clifftop resorts host sundown ceremonies with the Arabian Sea as backdrop. A relaxed register of beach luxury distinct from Goa. Best for: beach ceremonies with a quieter, southern character.
Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty
Island Resort · Kochi · Up to 800 Guests
Set on Bolgatty Island with panoramic Kochi backwater views, this large-format resort combines a marina, convention spaces and waterfront lawns — the most versatile choice for larger Kerala guest lists. Best for: large weddings needing scale plus island setting.

Jodhpur Wedding Planners — Luxury Fort & Palace Weddings
“There is no venue in India that commands a guest’s attention the way Mehrangarh does. You arrive and you understand immediately — this is not an ordinary occasion.” — Sundeep C Sidhwaani, Founder & Managing Director
India’s most dramatic skyline — and weddings that match it.
Jodhpur sits at the edge of the Thar Desert, its blue-washed houses climbing the hill beneath the 15th-century Mehrangarh Fort — one of the most imposing structures in the subcontinent. The visual drama here is unlike any other wedding destination in India: raw sandstone, cobalt walls, and a fort that glows amber at night.
Umaid Bhawan Palace, completed in 1943 for the Jodhpur royal family, remains one of the world’s great private residences — with its Taj Hotels wing offering a level of palatial service that makes Jodhpur a genuine rival to Udaipur for ultra-luxury destination weddings.
DreamzKrraft has been working in Jodhpur for over a decade. We know the fort’s restricted zones, the best positions for mandap lighting against the citadel wall, and the local craft traditions — lacquered furniture, ironwork, leather goods — that make Jodhpur guest hampers genuinely distinctive.
Signature Venues
Umaid Bhawan Palace
Royal Residence · Art Deco · Up to 800 Guests
One of the world’s largest private residences, Umaid Bhawan is simultaneously a royal home, a heritage museum, and a Taj Hotels property. Its Art Deco interiors and sweeping palace grounds create a wedding environment unlike anything else in Rajasthan — grand yet intimate, formal yet personal. Best for: couples who want the ultimate palatial experience; international luxury weddings; multi-day programs.
Mehrangarh Fort Event Spaces
15th-Century Fort · Iconic Backdrop · Up to 1,000 Guests
Mehrangarh Fort — one of India’s most photographed structures — has designated event zones available for private functions. A wedding against these 36-metre walls, lit amber at night, produces images that no studio or decorator can replicate. DreamzKrraft manages all fort permissions and event logistics. Best for: couples who want the most visually dramatic backdrop in India; sangeet and cocktail events.
RAAS Jodhpur
Fort-Adjacent · Boutique Luxury · Up to 150 Guests
RAAS Jodhpur sits directly at the base of Mehrangarh Fort — its rooftop pool and terrace restaurant offer uninterrupted views of the fort’s illuminated walls. For intimate weddings that demand exceptional photography without the full palace scale, RAAS is DreamzKrraft’s most recommended Jodhpur choice. Best for: intimate weddings; design-conscious couples; rooftop ceremonies at dawn or dusk.
Bal Samand Lake Palace
800-Year Heritage · Lakeside · Up to 400 Guests
One of India’s oldest royal summer retreats, Bal Samand sits on the edge of a 12th-century reservoir surrounded by formal gardens. Its heritage buildings, mango orchards, and lakeside lawns offer a quieter — but equally spectacular — alternative to Umaid Bhawan’s urban grandeur. Best for: garden weddings; families seeking heritage in a more relaxed setting.

Jaipur Wedding Planners — Luxury Palace Weddings in the Pink City
“Jaipur’s palaces were designed to overwhelm. Our work is to give them a wedding that matches the architecture’s ambition — and surprises everyone inside it.” — Trrishant S Sidhwaani, Director, Planning & Experiences
Five hundred years of royal hospitality — now yours for a wedding.
Jaipur was planned in 1727 by Maharaja Jai Singh II as a city built to impress. Its grid-pattern streets, rose-pink sandstone facades, and palace complexes were deliberate acts of visual power. When you hold a wedding here, you inherit that intention.
The Pink City is 3 hours from Delhi by road, 45 minutes by air — making it the most accessible Rajasthani destination for North Indian families and international guests flying into Delhi. DreamzKrraft has coordinated over 80 weddings across Jaipur’s palace hotels, from intimate Samode buyouts to 1,000-guest affairs at Fairmont.
Jaipur also has one of India’s richest craft traditions — block printing, blue pottery, gem cutting, and miniature painting — and we integrate these into welcome hampers, gift curation, and guest experiences in ways that feel authentically local rather than performative.
Signature Venues
Rambagh Palace
Former Royal Residence · Mughal Gardens · Up to 800 Guests
Once the residence of Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II, Rambagh Palace is Jaipur’s most celebrated address. Its Mughal gardens, durbar hall, and multiple event lawns offer a complete wedding canvas — from intimate mehndi on the polo lawn to grand pheras in the illuminated garden. Best for: couples who want the authentic palace-royal experience; multi-day heritage weddings.
Fairmont Jaipur
Largest in Rajasthan · Modern Palace · Up to 2,000 Guests
Built in the style of a Rajput palace, the Fairmont Jaipur offers the largest wedding facilities in Rajasthan — Grand Ballroom, multiple outdoor lawns, and a stunning poolside event space. Its scale makes it the go-to for families expecting more than 500 guests. Best for: very large guest lists; families who want palace grandeur with modern hospitality standards.
Samode Palace
475-Year Heritage · Full Buyout · Up to 300 Guests
A 475-year-old heritage palace in the Aravalli foothills, available for full property buyouts. Samode’s painted halls, courtyard pool, and rooftop terraces offer settings that feel genuinely ancient — not hotel-renovated ancient. One of our most sought-after intimate wedding venues. Best for: artistically-inclined couples; editorial-quality photography; international guests seeking authenticity.
Chomu Palace
200-Year Heritage · Stepwell Gardens · Up to 500 Guests
Chomu Palace Hotel features a historic stepwell, arched corridors, and extensive palace gardens — at rates more accessible than Rambagh. DreamzKrraft has used Chomu to deliver weddings that photograph as richly as events with far larger budgets. The value-to-grandeur ratio here is exceptional. Best for: heritage aesthetics on a measured budget; large Indian family weddings.

Italy Wedding Planners for Indian Weddings — Lake Como, Tuscany, Amalfi
“An Indian wedding in Italy is two worlds meeting. Our job is to honour every ritual fully while letting the Italian setting do what only it can.” — Priti-S Sidhwaani, Founder & CEO
An Indian celebration against an Italian backdrop.
Italy has become the most aspirational European destination for Indian weddings, and for good reason — Lake Como’s villa gardens, the Amalfi Coast’s vertiginous cliffs, Tuscany’s rolling estates and Rome’s timeworn grandeur each offer a setting that needs almost no embellishment.
The challenge of an Indian wedding abroad is logistical and cultural, not aesthetic — importing the right décor, sourcing Indian catering at scale, coordinating panditjis and ceremonies, and managing guests across language and currency. This is precisely where DreamzKrraft’s 25 years of experience earns its place.
We run Italian weddings end to end: villa and estate buyouts, Indian and fusion catering, baraat processions through historic piazzas, mandap construction within heritage-protected gardens, and the full guest experience from airport to farewell. Every Hindu, Sikh, Muslim or interfaith ritual is honoured in full.
Signature Venues
Lake Como Villas
Lakeside Gardens · Villa Buyout · Up to 250 Guests
The grand villas of Lake Como — Erba, Balbianello and their peers — offer terraced gardens dropping to the water, the most romantic lakeside ceremony setting in Europe and a favourite for high-profile Indian weddings. Best for: glamorous lakeside weddings with villa exclusivity.
Tuscan Estates
Rolling Vineyards · Private Estate · Up to 400 Guests
The wine estates and restored farmhouses of Tuscany provide rolling-hill backdrops, cypress avenues and large outdoor capacity — ideal for multi-day Indian weddings that want space and pastoral calm. Best for: large multi-day weddings with room to breathe.
Amalfi Coast
Cliffside Ceremony · Sea Views · Up to 200 Guests
Ravello and Positano deliver the most dramatic coastline in Europe — clifftop terraces and sea-facing gardens for ceremonies suspended between mountain and Mediterranean. Best for: spectacular cliffside ceremonies and intimate scale.
Rome Palazzos
Historic Grandeur · City Weddings · Up to 300 Guests
For couples who want the weight of history, Rome’s private palazzos and villa gardens host receptions amid frescoes, fountains and ancient grandeur in the heart of the eternal city. Best for: city weddings layered with historic atmosphere.

Hyderabad Wedding Planners — Nizami Palace Weddings
“Few cities understand opulence the way Hyderabad does. The Nizami sense of hospitality — grand, generous, gracious — is built into the city itself.” — Priti-S Sidhwaani, Founder & CEO
Royal grandeur in the heart of the Deccan.
Hyderabad sits at the crossroads of North and South India, and its weddings reflect that meeting point — Nizami opulence married to South Indian warmth. The city’s royal heritage, anchored by the legendary wealth of the Nizams, gives it a tradition of grand hospitality matched by few places in the country.
At the centre of it stands Taj Falaknuma Palace — the former residence of the Nizam, perched 2,000 feet above the city — one of the most spectacular palace wedding venues in India. DreamzKrraft designs celebrations here and across the city’s convention-scale hotels with equal command.
Hyderabad also brings a culinary heritage no other wedding city can claim: the Hyderabadi dum biryani, haleem and a royal Deccan menu that becomes a celebration in itself. We build the food story into the heart of every Hyderabad wedding we produce.
Signature Venues
Taj Falaknuma Palace
Former Nizam Residence · Hilltop Palace · Up to 600 Guests
The former residence of the Nizam, set 2,000 feet above Hyderabad with a Venetian-Mughal interior and one of the longest dining tables in the world. The most spectacular palace wedding venue in South India. Best for: couples who want a true Nizami palace celebration.
ITC Kohenur
Modern Luxury · HITEC City · Up to 1,500 Guests
A landmark modern hotel with vast pillar-free banquet halls and contemporary luxury interiors — the go-to for large Hyderabad weddings that need scale, technology and flawless logistics. Best for: very large guest lists and high-production receptions.
Novotel HICC
Convention Scale · Largest Capacity · Up to 5,000 Guests
Adjoining India’s largest convention centre, this venue enables productions on a scale almost nowhere else in the country can host — multi-zone weddings with separate ceremony, sangeet and reception arenas. Best for: mega-weddings and multi-thousand-guest celebrations.
Taj Krishna & Garden Venues
City Centre · Banquet & Lawn · Up to 1,000 Guests
A long-standing favourite among Hyderabad families, combining elegant ballrooms with landscaped lawns in the heart of Banjara Hills for fuss-free multi-day programs close to the city. Best for: classic city-centre weddings with garden access.

Greece Wedding Planners for Indian Weddings — Santorini & Mykonos
“A Santorini sunset needs no enhancement. We plan the whole celebration around that single hour when the caldera turns gold and every guest falls silent.” — Trrishant S Sidhwaani, Director, Planning & Experiences
A wedding on the edge of the sky.
Greece offers an Indian wedding one of the most recognisable backdrops in the world — the whitewashed, blue-domed cliffs of Santorini falling into the caldera, lit gold at sunset. It is a setting that turns even the simplest ceremony into a photograph people remember.
Each Greek region brings something distinct: Santorini’s cliff-edge drama and cave restaurants, Mykonos’s villa luxury and beach-club energy, and Athens’s ancient grandeur for couples who want history and large-venue capacity within the celebration.
Santorini’s venues are intimate by nature — cliffside terraces suit smaller, design-led weddings — while Mykonos and the mainland accommodate larger gatherings. DreamzKrraft manages the full picture: Indian and fusion catering, mandap construction, sunset-timed ceremonies, guest logistics and the Schengen visa process.
Signature Venues
Santorini Caldera
Cliff-Edge · Sunset Ceremony · Up to 150 Guests
The caldera-edge terraces and cave venues of Oia and Imerovigli provide the most iconic sunset ceremony setting in the world — intimate by nature, and unmatched for sheer drama. Best for: intimate, design-led weddings with the ultimate sunset.
Mykonos Villas
Villa Luxury · Beach Clubs · Up to 400 Guests

Athens Riviera
Ancient Grandeur · City & Coast · Up to 600 Guests
The Athens Riviera pairs seafront resorts with the backdrop of ancient monuments — a mainland base offering large-venue capacity, history and coastline together. Best for: larger weddings wanting history and capacity.
Crete Estates
Island Estates · Private Beaches · Up to 500 Guests
Greece’s largest island offers expansive seaside estates and resorts with private beaches — more space and capacity than the smaller Cyclades, with the same Aegean light. Best for: larger island weddings needing space and beach access.

Goa Wedding Planners — Luxury Beach & Resort Weddings
“Goa doesn’t need a theme. It has one already — the light, the sound of the sea, the warmth. We build the wedding around that feeling rather than over it.” — Akaansha Sidhwaani, Director, Design & Styling
Where celebrations spill outdoors — and no one wants to go inside.
Goa is the only destination in India where a wedding genuinely feels like a holiday — for the couple and for every guest. The combination of beach access, warm climate, direct international flights, and one of India’s strongest hospitality sectors makes it uniquely capable of hosting both the ceremony and the experience around it.
DreamzKrraft has planned destination weddings in Goa for couples based in Mumbai, Delhi, London, and Dubai — and the consistent theme is that guests arrive for a weekend and want to stay for a week. Our role is to make every element of that longer experience feel curated and considered.
From a private beach ceremony at Taj Exotica to a poolside sangeet at Grand Hyatt — Goa’s venues are built for the kind of open-air celebrations that photograph honestly: no artifice, just warmth and light.
Signature Venues
Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, Goa
Private Beach · South Goa · Up to 600 Guests
Set in 56 acres of tropical gardens fronting the Arabian Sea in South Goa, Taj Exotica offers private beach access, multiple event lawns, and a level of service that consistently places it among India’s top destination wedding venues.

Alila Diwa Goa
Design-Forward · South Goa · Up to 300 Guests
Alila Diwa’s architecture is rooted in Goa’s Portuguese-Konkani heritage — laterite stone, traditional roof tiles, and open courtyard spaces that catch the afternoon breeze. For couples who want design-consciousness over flashy scale, Alila Diwa offers Goa’s most artistically satisfying wedding setting. Best for: intimate weddings; design and architecture enthusiasts; couples seeking Goa’s quieter luxury.
Grand Hyatt Goa
North Goa · Multiple Pools · Up to 1,200 Guests
The Grand Hyatt Goa sits on a 28-acre estate in North Goa with six event venues including two outdoor amphitheatres and one of India’s largest hotel pools. Its scale and proximity to Dabolim Airport make it the go-to for large-format Goa weddings where logistics matter as much as aesthetics. Best for: large guest lists; multi-day programs; families arriving from multiple cities.
Marriott Resort & Spa, Goa
Central Location · Miramar Beach · Up to 800 Guests

Bali Wedding Planners for Indian Weddings — Cliff Villas & Temple Ceremonies
“Bali has a spiritual rhythm an Indian family recognises instantly. The temples, the offerings, the reverence — it makes the island feel less foreign and more like kin.” — Akaansha Sidhwaani, Director, Design & Styling
An island with a spiritual soul.
Bali holds a special place among Indian destination weddings because its Hindu-rooted culture resonates so naturally — the temples, daily offerings and reverence for ceremony feel familiar to Indian families, lending the island a sense of kinship few foreign destinations achieve.
The settings are dramatic in their own right: the limestone cliffs of Uluwatu falling to the Indian Ocean, the terraced rice fields and jungle of Ubud, and the beach-club energy of Seminyak and Canggu. DreamzKrraft designs across all of them, from clifftop villa ceremonies to riverside jungle dinners.
Bali offers strong value, abundant private-villa inventory and a creative wedding industry, while remaining accessible with visa-on-arrival for Indian travellers. We manage Indian and fusion catering, mandap construction, rituals, and the full guest experience across the island.
Signature Venues
Uluwatu Cliff Villas
Clifftop · Ocean Views · Up to 300 Guests
The limestone cliffs of Uluwatu host private villas and clifftop chapels suspended above the Indian Ocean — the most dramatic ceremony setting on the island, with sunset light over the water. Best for: dramatic clifftop ceremonies with ocean backdrops.
Ubud Jungle Resorts
Rice Terraces · River Valleys · Up to 250 Guests
Ubud’s jungle resorts overlook river valleys and emerald rice terraces, offering a lush, spiritual setting for ceremonies and intimate riverside dinners in the cultural heart of Bali. Best for: green, spiritual settings away from the coast.
