The most popular and expensive wedding venues in Udaipur are Jagmandir Island Palace, Taj Lake Palace and City Palace. These venues charge anywhere between $200- $550 per person (includes food, travel by jetty, basic decor).  Jagmandir does not have guest rooms to accommodate wedding guests. Guests stay at nearby hotels as most of the hotels are in close proximity to one another.

ACCOMODATION

Once you’ve decided on the location, accommodation will depend on the size of your guest list and personal preferences. Many a times, couples accommodate guests at hotels near the wedding venue instead of the venue itself.  The wedding venue and accommodation make around 60% of the cost.

TRAVEL COSTS

Travel in Udaipur is soberly priced, and in many cases the guests pay for it themselves. However, it is a good gesture to pick up your guests from the airport or train station so as to not inconvenience them. In this case arrange for a bigger car that can accommodate more people or a coach. A mini-bus or coach works out to be a cheaper option and costs around $150-$200 a day. A private car costs anywhere between $80- $150 a day (8 hours).

PHOTOGRAPHY COSTS IN UDAIPUR

If you opt for a local photographer from Udaipur, it would lead to great savings as famous ‘Destination Wedding’ photographers charge around Rs 5,00,000 to Rs 10,00,000 for covering a 3-5 day event. Plus you will have to factor in their stay and travel costs as well. City photographers and studios charge around Rs 30000-40000 per day.

OTHER VENDORS

Make-up and hair artists, Mehendi artists for the bride and the bridal party have to also be included in wedding costs. If you go for a local beautician, there are quite a few good options to choose from, but make time for a trial session before the wedding day. A good makeup and hair artists cost $120- $ 2000 for wedding makeup.

We can try to get a package deal for all the days with a much better all-inclusive rate.

Else you can take your trusted makeup artist along to Udaipur and arrange for food & stay.

MUSIC AND ENTERTAINMENT

Rajasthani Folk Music

Couples these days have theme weddings like Arabian nights where they rope in belly dancers or a Gatsby theme with Russian dancers or a Casino night or Bollywood night for their guests. Be ready to pay anywhere between $ 500 – $10000 for entertainment. If you opt for big names and well-known celebrities then your costs will go up accordingly.

MISCELLANEOUS & EXTRAS

Fireworks, elephant or horses for the procession, special crockery and cutlery, wedding planners and other miscellaneous expenses should also be taken into consideration.
