Taj Lake Palace is Udaipur's most romantic wedding destination—a breathtaking white marble palace that appears to float in the middle of Lake Pichola. Built between 1743 and 1746 by Maharana Jagat Singh II as a royal summer retreat, the palace has been beautifully restored into one of the world's most iconic heritage hotels, accessible exclusively by private boat.

More than just a luxury wedding venue, Taj Lake Palace offers an unforgettable arrival experience. Guests travel across the lake by boat before stepping onto the private island, where every celebration unfolds amidst elegant marble courtyards, shimmering waters, and panoramic views of the City Palace and the Aravalli Hills. Since the palace is reserved exclusively for resident guests, your wedding feels like a private royal celebration on its own island.

At Weddings and Events by Amitesh, recognized as a trusted destination wedding planner Udaipur couples and families rely on, we bring 12+ years of experience across Rajasthan's top palace and lake-facing properties to every Taj Lake Palace wedding we design. We understand the logistics of a floating venue — boat transfers, tight timelines, and limited daylight for setup — so we can turn it into a flawless celebration rather than a logistical puzzle.
