Sagar & Mansi
A charming farmhouse wedding surrounded by open fields, fairy lights, and cosy bonfires.
12th to 14th December 2022
Rishikesh — the Yoga Capital of the World — offers something no other destination can: ceremonies where the sacred Ganges flows beside your mandap, where Himalayan foothills rise in the background, where temple bells echo across the valley, and where the evening Ganga Aarti becomes part of your celebration. This is a place where weddings feel genuinely blessed, where nature's majesty combines with spiritual depth, and where couples seeking meaning over mere spectacle find their perfect setting.
At Wedly Events, we've helped couples create profoundly meaningful celebrations in Rishikesh. We've planned intimate riverside ceremonies at luxury resorts where the Ganges forms your backdrop, coordinated Ganga Aarti as part of wedding festivities, incorporated adventure activities (rafting, camping) for adventurous couples, and delivered eco-conscious celebrations that honor Rishikesh's natural beauty. Whether you seek a spiritual Hindu ceremony, a nature-immersed celebration, or a unique destination experience, we understand what makes Rishikesh special and how to capture its magic.

Rishikesh destination weddings require understanding of what's genuinely achievable here. Venue options are more limited than mainstream destinations — but what exists is extraordinary. The local vendor infrastructure is smaller, meaning most professionals travel from Dehradun or Delhi. Alcohol restrictions apply in many areas (Rishikesh is a holy city). And guest capacities at riverside venues tend toward intimate rather than grand. These realities require honest guidance from day one.
At Wedly Events, we've developed systems that make Rishikesh weddings work beautifully. We coordinate vendor logistics from Dehradun and beyond, understand which venues suit different celebration styles, manage the unique permissions and restrictions holy city weddings involve, and ensure weather contingencies for outdoor riverside events. We deliver celebrations that embrace Rishikesh's spiritual essence while handling the practical complexities.
A Rishikesh wedding demands a planner who understands both spiritual significance and practical logistics. Here's what sets us apart:
We understand Rishikesh's unique offerings — the riverside venues, the spiritual ceremonies, the Ganga Aarti integration, and what makes celebrations here genuinely meaningful. We help couples create destination experiences that honor this sacred place.
Rishikesh suits intimate, meaningful celebrations — 50-150 guests typically. We excel at creating profound experiences where every moment matters, where the setting enhances rather than overwhelms, and where your wedding feels like a blessing, not just an event.
Rishikesh's limited local infrastructure means we bring excellence from beyond. We coordinate top decorators, caterers (who understand sattvic options for spiritual settings), photographers who capture this magical landscape, and entertainment that respects the sacred environment.
Destination weddings in spiritual locations involve specific costs. Whether planning a beautiful intimate celebration or a luxury riverside experience, we provide transparent guidance on what Rishikesh weddings truly require.
Rishikesh demands respect. Our team understands when sacred moments require reverence, how to work within holy city restrictions, and how to create celebrations that feel blessed and meaningful — not just visually beautiful.

Looking for a trusted wedding planner in ? Here's a glimpse of some of our finest celebrations from across India — from intimate farmhouse gatherings to grand palace affairs. Every wedding we plan reflects our dedication to detail, creativity, and flawless execution, no matter the destination.
Rishikesh suits intimate to medium celebrations: 50-150 guests is ideal for most riverside resorts. Properties like Aloha on the Ganges and Taj Rishikesh can accommodate larger gatherings up to 200+, but the destination's magic is best experienced with smaller, more meaningful celebrations where every guest can truly absorb the sacred environment.
Absolutely — the evening Ganga Aarti is one of Rishikesh's most magical experiences and can beautifully complement your celebrations. We coordinate private aarti experiences at riverside venues or group experiences at Triveni Ghat. Many couples incorporate aarti as part of their mehendi evening or as a blessing ceremony before the wedding.
Rishikesh offers value compared to premium destinations: ₹10-22 Lakhs for intimate riverside celebrations, ₹22-40 Lakhs for premium resort weddings, and ₹40-65+ Lakhs for luxury experiences at properties like Taj Rishikesh or Ananda. Budget includes vendor transportation from Dehradun/Delhi which we factor into all planning.
Yes — Rishikesh is a holy city and alcohol restrictions apply in many areas. However, select resorts with appropriate licenses can serve alcohol within their premises. We guide couples on venue options based on their celebration needs and ensure you understand what's possible before booking. Many couples embrace the alcohol-free spiritual experience as part of their Rishikesh choice.
Yes! Rishikesh is India's adventure capital. We coordinate white-water rafting experiences, bungee jumping excursions, camping nights, cliff jumping, and more as pre-wedding or guest activities. This makes Rishikesh weddings uniquely memorable — couples often combine spiritual ceremonies with adventure experiences for guests.
We understand Rishikesh's unique character — the spiritual significance, the holy city restrictions, the limited local infrastructure, and what makes celebrations here genuinely meaningful. We provide honest guidance on what's achievable, coordinate vendor logistics from Dehradun/Delhi, and create weddings that honor Rishikesh's sacred essence while delivering beautiful, well-executed celebrations.
At WedlyEvents, we turn your love story into stunning decor—creating magical moments, emotional spaces, and memories that last a lifetime.
