Rising from a granite hill in Rajasthan's Aravalli range, Alila Fort Bishangarh is a 235-year-old fortress transformed into a spellbinding wedding destination. Just 70 km from Jaipur, this architectural masterpiece blends centuries-old grandeur with contemporary luxury, offering couples a regal setting to exchange vows. Imagine golden sunsets casting a warm glow over the fortress, as elegant wedding décor adorns its courtyards and turrets.
Within these historic walls, 87 opulent suites provide an indulgent retreat for wedding guests. The Regal Suite, designed for the bride, is as lavish as it gets with walk-in bathtubs, daybeds by bay windows, and breathtaking views of the Aravalli Hills. Two Presidential Suites offer a serene space for bridal preparations with a view of the sunset in the hills, while Luxury Villas with private pools ensure exclusivity for guests. Whether celebrating under the stars or within history-laden courtyards, Alila Fort Bishangarh is where romance meets royal splendour.
A stunning array of indoor and outdoor venues are on offer here, each presenting a unique backdrop for wedding celebrations. The Aravalli Lawn, surrounded by lush greenery and panoramic hill views, hosts up to 300 guests for grand receptions under the open starlit sky. As twilight sets in, the golden hues of the landscape create an enchanting natural setting. For intimate affairs, the Haveli Terrace, a boutique poolside venue, accommodates 150 guests—ideal for cocktail soirées with breathtaking fort views.
For an unforgettable ceremony, the stepwell-inspired Baori glows with hundreds of candles at night, setting a magical tone for weddings of up to 250 guests. Indoors, the Darbar Hall exudes royal grandeur, hosting 150 guests amid rich décor. The open-air Nazaara is perfect for mehendi or sangeet nights, offering space for 160 guests under a starlit sky. The Madhuveni bar provides refined spaces for pre-wedding gatherings, from cigar and cognac evenings to tea ceremonies. Every venue at Alila Fort Bishangarh is designed to blend history, romance, and personalised elegance, ensuring a wedding as timeless as the fort itself.
At Alila Fort Bishangarh, weddings are more than just grand celebrations—they're conscious, cultural experiences set within a 235-year-old fort reborn with sustainability at its heart. Restored using traditional Rajasthani techniques and local stone, the fort honours its heritage while treading lightly on the land.
Couples can host their wedding knowing every detail has been thoughtfully designed to reduce environmental impact—from locally sourced décor within a 100 km radius to biodegradable serveware and seed paper stationery. The culinary team crafts regional menus using organic produce from the in-house farm, served in à la carte buffets to minimise waste. Electric vehicles ferry guests across the property, while the use of glass water bottles and a naturally cooled lobby further reflect eco-conscious choices.
From royal processions and live folk performances to sapling-planting rituals and pre-wedding wellness at the Ayurvedic spa, every moment is steeped in meaning. With bespoke planning, cultural depth, and a profound respect for nature, Alila Fort Bishangarh transforms weddings into living legacies—where beauty, tradition, and sustainability walk hand in hand.
At Alila Fort Bishangarh, we don't just host weddings, we create timeless moments woven with heritage and heartfelt hospitality. From intimate ceremonies under starlit skies to celebrations embraced by the Aravalli Hills, every detail is curated to reflect the couple's story, ensuring an experience that feels personal, warm, and unforgettable—not just for them, but for their families too.
