The Indian wedding market is rapidly growing at an annual rate of 25-30 per cent. While wedding fairs are a common feature in recent times, there is nothing that caters solely to affluent families with big marriage budgets, noted Vogue India. Identifying this need-gap, Vogue India’s exclusive, ‘by invitation only’ Vogue Wedding Show acts as the final arbitrator of luxury for discerning audiences, connecting them to the finest brands in the bridal space.

At this ‘by invitation only’ luxury fair, guests have the convenience of meeting the finest purveyors of products and services pertaining to weddings, all under one roof.
