The destination
Why Jodhpur
Jodhpur gives a wedding monumental scale, with one of India's great forts above the city and grand palace hotels below.
Palaces, forts and heritage hotels give Jodhpur a regal, monumental setting for celebrations.
- 01Landscape and setting
- Mehrangarh Fort dominates the skyline above the blue-washed houses of the old city, and palace and heritage hotels offer settings from intimate courtyards to grand halls.
- 02Celebrations it suits
- Jodhpur suits regal celebrations and multi-day weddings that move between palace venues, heritage hotels and courtyards.
- 03Getting there and around
- Jodhpur has its own airport and good rail connections, making it easier to reach than more remote desert destinations.
- 04When to celebrate
- Its desert climate makes October to March the most comfortable season for outdoor functions.
- 05Design inspiration
- Monumental architecture already sets a grand tone, so design often works best when it frames the stonework and uses light to bring out the forts and palaces at night.
