Chokhi Dhani The Palace Hotel, Jaisalmer | Weddings and Events by Amitesh

At Weddings and Events by Amitesh, we plan celebrations at properties that combine palace-style scale with cultural richness. Among our trusted recommendations is Chokhi Dhani The Palace Hotel — a 5-star luxury property on Barmer Road that brings the grandeur of Rajasthani architecture together with the cultural showmanship the Chokhi Dhani brand is known for. As one of the largest-capacity wedding venues in Jaisalmer, it stands out for couples who want a genuine big fat wedding with room to spare.

Note: Adorned with heritage-style interiors, traditional artwork, and carved sandstone pathways, Chokhi Dhani The Palace Hotel offers 43 well-appointed guest rooms and suites. It is ideal for mid-to-very-large weddings, with its three banquet venues able to host up to 1,000 floating guests, and reported two-day wedding costs ranging anywhere from roughly ₹20–40 lakh to higher depending on scale and guest count.

Venue Overview

Built to bring back the opulence and magnificence of Rajasthan, Chokhi Dhani The Palace Hotel sits away from the chaos of the main city, surrounded by the dunes of the Thar Desert. The property blends ethnic Rajasthani heritage with age-old hospitality traditions, and its three dedicated venues — lawn, hall, and poolside — give couples the flexibility to host everything from an intimate poolside sangeet to a 1,000-guest baraat and reception on the same property.
