You must have seen your friends getting hitched in Goa and wondered how much does a destination wedding cost there. Well, we are here to help.

Let’s break down the cost invloved in organising a wedding and see how much amount you need splurge.

1. Venue

The wedding venue contributes majorly to the costs. In Goa, you have plenty of options to choose from – beach resorts, shacks, villas or hotels with private beach access.

If your budget is on the higher side like ₹50 lakh, you can choose 5-star hotels like The Leela, Park Hyatt Goa Resort & Spa, Zuri White Sands, Taj Exotica, etc.
