And, with the new year already in, the trend of destination weddings is inevitably here to stay. If you’re making plans on having a destination wedding this year, here is a short list of trending destinations in India for the 2022 wedding season.

1. Rajasthan:

With awe inspiring palatial locations like Jaipur and Udaipur, Rajasthan definitely tops our list of favorite wedding destinations for the 2022 wedding season. Having been a witness to the famous Vicky Katrina wedding, this destination is most certainly to attract hundreds if not thousands of couples to get hitched in the cities of palaces and lakes and all that makes your wedding album a treat for the eyes.

2. Goa:

To all Indians, almost unanimously, Goa spells party so why can’t it be a wedding party ? Envisioning a dream wedding almost always has a beach with crystal clear waters and serene picturesque locations in the lap of nature. And Goa has it all from clean beaches to seafood to the best vibe so it won’t be unusual to crave to tie the knot there. And especially now that we have seen this destination pop up in the last wedding season, it has found a special place in our hearts for the upcoming season as well. Ladies, just imagine how breathtaking an early morning wedding or a late-night function will be with a star studded sky overhead and the sea kissing your feet.

3. Mussoorie:

Hill stations are loved by almost everyone and Mussoorie is the epitome of locations for a destination wedding in 2022. Firstly, the weather is just perfect all round the year so no matter what season you decide the wedding to be, the weather would be in your favor. Secondly, wouldn’t you love hills as the backdrop? Just think about the awesome clicks with flowers all around you and the hills right behind you.

4. Telangana:

Hyderabad in Telangana to be more precise, has one of the largest collections of forts and castles that ooze history, heritage and culture. Now if you are one of those who crave for a royal and grand event, Hyderabad and its vicinity is most certainly the place to be. With heritage venues for your wedding such as the Taj Krishna, the ITC Kakatiya, the Taj Deccan and Fort Grand, all featuring grand lawns and banquet halls and galleries and gardens you will find it quite impossible to refuse Hyderabad as your wedding destination.

Decors:

1. Ombre Indulgence:

One trend that is becoming more and more popular with couples these days is the use of ombré shades. Breaking the monotonous traditional Indian wedding decor colors they are simply a breath of fresh air and blend quite well with both traditional Indian as well as contemporary vibe themes. Be it drapes, florals, invitations or seats, ombré shades are versatile enough to be incorporated in any of the elements.

2. Eco-Friendly frills:

Being aware of the environmental consequences of their choices has increased in recent times and that has catalyzed the move towards eco-friendly decor options.Cut blooms are increasingly being replaced by potted flower plants while an acute inclination towards using paper or fabric has been observed too. A local vendor with seasonal flowers is more preferred these days not just from a feasibility standpoint but from nature's perspective as well.

3. Elegant Extravaganza:

Minimalistic decor themes were quite a trend a few years back but going all in, just like the old days, is talk of the town again. Only this time, it is rather refined. Whether it is ceilings full of florals, life-sized chandeliers, heavy bridal backdrops or rich accents with bold colors, all of them have started appearing in decor themes in weddings. Quite literally, it hardly matters if the venues are large or small, or if the ceremony is intimate or grand. Couples are now more about lavish decors but are also inclined towards them not being too loud.

4. Geometric Gems:

Gradually inclining towards contemporary decor, couples try to keep things as modern as possible and what better way to do that than crisp geometric patterns that provide a sense of regularity and order. The couple’s taste can be effortlessly reflected by using the versatility in the geometry of the patterns. Clean lines and curves filled with radiant colors and floral accents and much more. Geometry is the best goto for those looking for truly modern designs as well as those opting for minimalism.
