2. Goa
Beach pre-wedding photoshoots and weddings are very happening these days and many couples are choosing breezy destinations to celebrate their special day.
Siddharth Goel shared, “More modern, outgoing young people opt for beaches at their pre-wedding, where Goa obviously takes centre stage, due to its highly commercialised tourism industry. There are specific yachts, vintage cars, and things of the sort for pre-weddings in Goa, which are used only for such celebrations.”
3. Jaipur
Jaipur and its royal heritage make the Pink City one of the most-loved pre-wedding destinations in India. The city sparks love, richness, culture, and opulence, and the stunning forts and mahals set up the most picturesque photoshoot locations.
4. Jaisalmer
Jaisalmer is yet another stunning city in Rajasthan that is popular as one of the most loved Indian pre-wedding destinations.
“Couples looking for more traditional pre-weddings usually look at Rajasthan, opting for either Jaisalmer or Jaipur”, as Siddharth shared with Curly Tales.
5. Jodhpur
While in Rajasthan, Jodhpur also makes sure to be on the list of magnificent pre-wedding destinations in India. Exquisite architecture, the infinite glittering sand, and the blue houses surrounding the Blue City beautifully are a sight to behold.
6. Kashmir
How can we forget Kashmir? Kashmir is one of India’s most alluring destinations and its landscapes make up for amazing photoshoot locations.
“Usually, clients who are in their late 20s to early 30s opt for the hilly-mountain aesthetics, paired either with the snow and shikaras of Kashmir”, Siddharth shared with Curly Tales.
7. Kerala
With beaches, verdant greenery, stunning backwaters, and more of nature’s magical beauty, Kerala also is one of India’s scenic pre-wedding destinations.
Camilton Productions’ Co-founder shared “A less commercialised region for the beach celebrations is Kerala, which is especially common for people who have roots in the Southern part of the country.”
8. Ladakh
Ladakh holds immense beauty and its mesmerising charm sparks in every corner. The valleys, pristine lakes, mountains, monasteries, and more of its magical beauty make Ladakh a splendid pre-wedding destination.

9. Meghalaya
Northeastern places are offbeat and unexplored and these hold stunning magnificence for your pre-wedding photoshoot.
“A more under-appreciated region for such celebrations is the North East and surrounding areas. Darjeeling, several cities in Assam and Meghalaya, and Kalimpong, a town in Bengal are all incredibly picturesque, and great spots for pre-wedding shoots without as much of a tourist presence when compared to some of the other cities on this list.”, shared Siddharth with Curly Tales.
