Jodhpur is yet another major city of Rajasthan after Jaipur and Udaipur. The city has an airport and good railway network for connectivity to the major cities of the country. The city boasts of having the descendants of Royal family taking care of the majestic Umaid Bhawan Palace, which by the way is also TripAdvisor rated Best Hotel in the world on its Traveler’s Choice list. The palace is quintessence of Royalty. The Palace built for Maharaj Umaid Singh, initially just had a museum open to the public, and years later part of the palace was converted into a Hotel.

There’s an idiom “when in Rome do as Romans do”. That could be applied here as well.

Rajasthani Carnival or Royal Rajwada could be possibly used in the wedding. if you are still not convinced, how about a magnificent combination of traditional and new – Modern Rajwada decorations.
