WHY RISHIKESH
Spiritual ceremonies on the banks of the sacred Ganges
Rishikesh — the Yoga Capital of the World — sits at the foothills of the Himalayas where the sacred Ganges emerges from the mountains. For couples seeking a wedding with deep spiritual meaning, extraordinary natural beauty, and a wellness-focused experience for guests, Rishikesh is unlike any other destination in India.
Vivaah India has planned weddings at Rishikesh's most extraordinary settings — from riverside ceremonies on the banks of the Ganges to luxury resort weddings at Ananda in the Himalayas (one of the world's finest wellness resorts). Our spiritual wedding expertise means we work with experienced Hindu priests, yoga masters, and Ayurvedic practitioners to create a ceremony that is as meaningful as it is beautiful.
A Rishikesh wedding is a transformative experience. Guests arrive to yoga and meditation sessions, white-water rafting on the Ganges, and Ganga Aarti ceremonies at sunset. The wedding itself — whether a traditional Hindu ceremony or a contemporary wellness celebration — unfolds against a backdrop of sacred river and Himalayan peaks.
