But the big question every couple eventually asks is - how much does a destination wedding in Udaipur actually cost? Let’s break it down, one aspect at a time.

How Much Does A Modest Destination Wedding In Udaipur Cost?

For this estimate, we’re considering a 2-night, 3-day wedding celebration - the standard format for most destination weddings.

Day 1: Guests arrive, followed by lunch and a fun Mehendi or poolside party, ending with a lively Sangeet night.

Day 2: Breakfast, wedding rituals (day or evening), followed by reception dinner.

Day 3: Farewell breakfast and guest departures.

We’re not including the cost of bridal wear, makeup, photography or travel, as those vary widely based on personal preferences and splurges.

Venue & Accommodation Costs In Udaipur

Udaipur has a mix of heritage properties, lakefront resorts and modern hotels that cater to destination weddings. If you’re planning to host 200 guests, most couples prefer 4-star properties that provide both accommodation and venue spaces for all wedding functions.

So, for about 200 people, that would roughly come up to 100 rooms. Also, bear in mind you also have the option of accommodating guests at hotels near the wedding venue instead of the venue itself.

Accommodation for 200 people in a 4-star property in Udaipur will range anywhere between 20k-30k per night, per room

So if you take an average of 22k per night, per room, the accommodation cost for 200 people will be INR 44 lakhs

This typically includes stay and all meals for your guests, which covers about 60% of your total wedding cost.

You can also consider slightly offbeat resorts around Udaipur, properties near Badi Lake or Fatehsagar, which often offer better deals without compromising on views or hospitality.

Venue Rental Charges

Some hotels include the venue cost within the accommodation package, while others may charge separately depending on the spaces booked (poolside lawns, terraces, banquet halls)

For a 2-day wedding, the venue rental and event spaces can range between ₹8-12 lakhs, depending on how many areas you use and whether you’re hosting multiple events in different spots!

Destination Wedding Cost For Decor

When it comes to weddings in Udaipur, the natural beauty does half the job but décor still plays a major role in setting the mood.

Modest décor (for 2 big + 1 small event): ₹8-10 lakhs

Grand setups with custom florals, drapes & lighting: ₹25-40 lakhs

WMG tip: Incorporate local Rajasthani elements like gota, mirror work or traditional brass décor. They look stunning and blend perfectly with the palace aesthetic.

Destination Wedding Cost For Alcohol and Entertainment

Most resorts will not allow you to get your own alcohol, so you need to budget for that as well. Given that alcohol will be served for only 1-2 events, a budget of INR 4-5 lakh can be reserved.

For your entertainment, you need a DJ and a photography team. While you can go all out and have live entertainment and concert nights, this cost is for a modest destination wedding in Udaipur. We would recommend setting aside INR 4 to 8 lakhs for a 2-day/4 events budget.

Miscellaneous & Other Costs

There are always those “little things” that add up, from logistics to guest experiences. Here are a few:

• Guest transfers (airport-hotel-venue): ₹2-3 lakhs
  
  
• Wedding planner fees: 10-15% of total budget
  
  
• Mehendi artists, pandit, baraat band:  ₹3-5 lakhs
  
  
• Wedding favours and hospitality: ₹2-4 lakhs

So all in all, we can easily assume that a modest destination wedding in Udaipur, which is still pretty luxurious, can be wrapped up in a budget of ₹75 lakhs - ₹1 crore for a guest list of about 200 people.

A destination wedding in Udaipur can be as royal or as intimate as you want it to be. For around ₹75 lakhs, you can host a modest yet luxurious 2-day celebration for 200 guests at a beautiful 4-star resort. But if you want to go all-out with décor, multiple functions, and live entertainment, the cost can easily cross ₹1 crore or more.

Either way, Udaipur offers something truly special - a mix of grandeur, history and lakeside serenity that makes your wedding feel straight out of a dream.
