4. Made In Heaven 

Haveli Dharampura, New Delhi

Deepti Naval’s gorgeous wedding in Made In Heaven that transformed a khandar haveli into a classy location stayed with us long after the show ended. Though Haveli Dharampura isn’t the exact location where the wedding took place, it fits if you’re looking for a similar Chandni Chowk vibe.

5. Shaandaar

Carlton Towers Estate, United Kingdom 

The best part of this film was the location and the wedding definitely took our breath away. Shot at the Carlton Towers Estate, a Victorian Gothic-revival style country house, this location is elegance personified. 

6. Sex And The City

The New York Public Library, New York

Though the wedding doesn’t actually take place in the movie, the location had us drooling. The New York Public Library actually hosts weddings, receptions and balls if you’re planning your Sex And The City wedding.

Remember the last scene of the film where all her bridesmaids line up by the beach? Well, you can recreate that wedding at the Charleston Harbor as you soak in the sea.

Hotel Castle Mandawa, Rajasthan

The spot where Channa Mereya was shot, Mandawa Fort is actually the perfect location if you want a royal Rajasthani wedding.

The movie is shot across the Skopelos Island in Greece and undoubtedly, this town makes a great backdrop to any wedding. From Hotel Rene to a simple Airbnb, every part of this island is breathtaking.

Mahabalipuram Shore Temple, Tamil Nadu

The beautiful Mahabalipuram Shore Temple in Tamil Nadu, an hour from the capital, Chennai formed the backdrop for Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor’s wedding in 2 States.

One of the most picturesque spots in New York, The Plaza Hotel is every bride’s dream wedding destination. It’s vintage yet glamorous, what’s not to like.
