How to save without it looking like you did
- Go off-season. The same 5-star plan in April–September comes to about ₹1.14 Cr–₹2.12 Cr, mostly through lower room rates.
- Merge functions. Combine haldi and mehendi into one daytime event, saving a full round of plates and décor.
- Host fewer overnight guests. Rooms are the second-biggest line, so local guests can stay at nearby mid-range hotels.
- Pick a resort over a palace for big functions. Hold the pheras at a palace and the sangeet at a resort lawn.
- Negotiate the room block. Wedding blocks typically get 10–15% off rack rates.
