A common question couples ask is:
“Can we plan a Jaipur destination wedding under 20 lakhs?”
The short answer is: Yes - but only if you keep the guest count small and make smart choices.
As one of the best wedding planners in Jaipur, Wedifys regularly designs intimate weddings in the ₹20–25 lakh range that still look aesthetic, well-planned, and emotionally rich.
Here is your complete guide to making a ₹20 lakh Jaipur wedding not just possible, but beautiful.
1. Guest Count: The Most Important Factor
If your budget is ₹20 lakhs, your guest count should be:
✔ 40–60 guests (Maximum)
Why?
Because every major cost - rooms, meals, décor - is calculated per guest.
A 40–60 guest list allows you to:
- Control room requirements
- Manage F&B costs
- Keep décor intimate
- Avoid high production expenses
Many NRIs choose intimate weddings for exactly this reason.
As a top destination wedding planner in Rajasthan, Wedifys specializes in designing small weddings that still feel luxurious.
2. Choosing the Right Venue (₹6–10 Lakhs)
You must avoid premium palace hotels and 5-star resorts. Instead, choose:
✔ Heritage Havelis
₹5,000–₹10,000 per room
✔ Boutique Resorts
₹7,000–₹12,000 per room
✔ Off-Season Discounts (Apr–Aug)
Up to 30–40% cheaper than winter
Room Requirement:
12–20 rooms for 1 night = ₹3–5 lakhs
Plus meals + basic venue usage = ₹3–6 lakhs
Total venue package: ₹6–10 lakhs
Wedifys often negotiates preferred rates for boutique properties - a major benefit of hiring a luxury wedding planner in Jaipur, even on a budget.
3. Food & Beverage (₹4–6 Lakhs)
F&B is the second-biggest cost after rooms.

- Combine haldi + mehendi meals
Wedifys always ensures a well-balanced menu - even within a restrained budget.
