NRI Couples Planning Destination Weddings Now Turning to Indian Platforms Over UK Agencies

A growing number of NRI couples planning weddings abroad are bypassing traditional UK-based agencies in favor of Indian wedding-tech platforms, citing better cultural understanding, cost-efficiency, and streamlined coordination from home. According to recent industry estimates, as many as 40% of UK‑based NRI couples with Indian weddings now opt for Indian-based platforms over London planners. A shift driven by digital convenience and trust.

Sarah and Rajiv, a British couple of Indian origin, planned their Goa destination wedding entirely through an Indian tech aggregator. “We were overwhelmed by the British agencies quoting double for basic services. Instead, the Indian platform gave us wedding packages, vendor suggestions, and price transparency.” said Rajiv. They finalized vendor bookings in under three weeks while still based in London, saving both time and money.

With India’s “Wed in India” platforms like Event Planet are gaining the trust of NRIs planning weddings abroad. Event Planet fills a gap often left by traditional UK-based agencies. The platform also offers wedding packages in Thailand, Bali and Nepal.
