The Rajasthan Tourism Department is developing new ways to promote destination weddings. To make the state an ideal destination wedding venue, the Rajasthan Tourism Development Corporation (RTDC) has taken exciting steps. The Palace on Wheels, which is counted among the most beautiful and luxurious trains in the world, will now offer destination weddings. Not only this, the couples tying the knot will also be able to get pre and post-wedding shoots done on the Palace on Wheels.
On this occasion, Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister of Tourism Diya Kumari said that making Palace on Wheels available for destination weddings is a big decision as it will not only give a huge boost to destination weddings in Rajasthan but will also increase the attraction of foreign tourists towards Rajasthani art and culture and Vedic marital customs.
She also said that Palace on Wheels is one of the most beautiful luxury trains in the world. Couples having a destination wedding on the Palace on Wheels will not only be able to make the most important moments of their lives memorable but will also be able to play the role of tourist ambassadors for Rajasthan and India.
Moving towards developing facilities that match global standards
It is noteworthy that work is being done by the Tourism Department to develop facilities that match the global standards at all tourist destinations of Rajasthan. Due to this, more and more foreign tourists will flock to the state and domestic tourists will also be eager to come here. Rajasthan has 75 per cent of the country’s heritage properties. This is the reason why Rajasthan is the first choice for destination weddings across the country.
Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur and many other districts have many remarkable and picturesque forts and mansions which are attracting domestic and foreign tourists for destination weddings. Although there are innumerable heritage forts and havelis, destination weddings are being organized at around 120 of them. From this number, one can determine Rajasthan’s suitability for destination weddings.
Destination weddings are tempting celebrities
Rajasthan Tourism Department is emphasizing the development of heritage places located in other districts of the state as wedding destinations in addition to the famous and renowned ones. Be it film stars or industrialists in the country, or even Hollywood stars, they are all turning to Rajasthan to convert their marriage into an extravagant celebration.
Destination weddings bring a fairytale feel
The decorated forts and mansions of Rajasthan bring a royal, fairytale feel to the wedding celebrations transporting the bride, groom and guests to the regal and majestic period of kings and queens. This royal experience creates lasting memories for all those who are present at the wedding.
