“If marriages are made in Heaven, they should be celebrated in Paradise.” 

India – August 21, 2025 – Sri Lanka Tourism is set to position the island as one of the most desirable wedding destinations for Indian couples through a series of multi-city luxury wedding shows across India.

At each event, participants will engage in exclusive B2B networking sessions with representatives from leading Sri Lankan hotels, luxury resorts, heritage venues, and specialized wedding service providers.

Sri Lanka: Expanding the Destination Wedding Market 

Sri Lanka, a paradisical island in the Indian Ocean, offers diverse settings for one-of-a-kind weddings. Couples can choose from stunning beaches, verdant tea plantations, and architectural wonders. Whether it’s a wedding in the wild or a celebration in the bustling capital of Colombo, every ceremony leaves behind a lifetime of cherished memories. 

A growing trend among Indian couples is the preference for smaller, more intimate celebrations. Sri Lanka Tourism is working closely with wedding planners and travel agents in India to cater to this segment, offering special packages for boutique weddings. The highlight remains beachfront vows, where couples can walk barefoot on soft sands with the Indian Ocean as their witness.

After all, weddings and Sri Lanka make for a truly heavenly union.
