Luxury Destination Weddings in Budapest, Hungary on the Rise Among Foreigners
Budapest, Hungary, has become a popular destination for extravagant weddings, attracting couples from China, India, and Vietnam. The CEO of Cinderella’s Day Ltd., Nóra Kisfaludy-Tóbel, explains that Hungary offers a unique experience for wealthy couples looking to tie the knot in a luxurious setting.
The stunning historical and cultural sites in Budapest, such as the Buda Castle, Fisherman’s Bastion, and the Castle of Vajdahunyad, are favored locations for these lavish weddings. While traditional Hungarian programs are sometimes included, couples often opt for trendy ruin pubs and picturesque panoramic views.
In comparison to other popular wedding destinations like Portugal and Thailand, Hungary lacks large venues capable of accommodating hundreds of guests. Despite this challenge, the country continues to attract couples from around the world, with Germans and Scandinavians planning well in advance, while Asians often have last-minute arrangements.
One notable event was the mega Indian luxury wedding held at the Buda Castle, attended by prominent figures in the diamond industry. The extravagant affair, organized by Liberty Hungary and Cinderella’s Day Ltd., featured international chefs, air shows, performers, and musicians from India, making it a truly unforgettable celebration.
Although the costs of these extravagant weddings can be substantial, they provide a significant boost to Hungary’s tourism industry and economy. As Budapest continues to attract couples seeking a luxurious and unforgettable wedding experience, it solidifies its position as a premier destination for high-end celebrations.
