Ministry of Tourism Launches Wedding Tourism Campaign

Under the ambitious "Developing Tourism in Mission Mode" initiative, the Ministry of Tourism (MoT) has unveiled an innovative wedding tourism campaign, crafted in close collaboration with industry experts, associations, and seasoned wedding planners.

The campaign aims to position India not only as a favored wedding destination but also strategically enhance the tourism sector within the country, according to MoT officials.

Kicking off with a curated selection of 25 key destinations across India, the campaign delves into how India resonates with the aspirations of couples seeking unique wedding experiences. It seamlessly weaves together India's diverse landscapes, ancient rituals, delectable cuisine, and modern infrastructure.

An essential facet of the campaign is its inclusive approach, meticulously developed in consultation with industry veterans, associations, and seasoned wedding organizers.
