Couples Shift Wedding Plans from Goa to Coorg, Seeking Fresh Venues

The Economic Times notes a clear shift in India’s wedding market, with couples increasingly favouring Coorg over the long‑standing favourite, Goa. Industry insiders attribute the change to a desire for less‑crowded, nature‑rich settings that offer a fresh backdrop for celebrations.

Goa, once the go‑to beach destination for large weddings, is seeing a slowdown as venues become saturated and costs rise. In contrast, Coorg’s rolling hills, coffee plantations and boutique resorts are attracting planners looking for intimacy and scenic variety.

Event managers and destination service providers are adapting quickly, promoting Coorg’s infrastructure and customizing packages to meet the expectations of modern Indian families. The trend suggests a broader move toward off‑beat locales that combine natural beauty with logistical convenience.

While the shift is still early, the growing interest in Coorg signals a potential re‑orientation of the domestic wedding tourism sector, with other lesser‑known regions likely to follow suit.
