Now in its fifth edition, Retrouvailles has grown into one of India’s most influential platforms for discussions around luxury weddings, destination-led events, and experiential formats at scale. The 2026 conclave reflected this evolution in both scope and setting. The venue’s blend of traditional Rajasthani design and contemporary luxury closely aligned with themes discussed during the event—particularly how heritage, scale, and modern execution are increasingly coming together in India’s wedding landscape. Holding the conclave in Jaipur further reinforced the city’s standing as a preferred destination for international and high-value celebrations. Delegates attended from across Europe, the Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, the Midwest, and the Asia-Pacific region.

The event was formally inaugurated by Rajasthan’s Deputy Chief Minister, Diya Kumari, who attended as the Chief Guest.

She emphasized the state’s heritage properties, evolving hospitality ecosystem, and growing focus on positioning Rajasthan as a preferred destination for global events and international gatherings. The conclave was hosted by Vimal Kumar, General Manager, and Ajay Gangwal, Managing Director, of Anantara Jaipur. Their involvement reinforced Jaipur’s growing reputation as a city capable of hosting large-format, high-value celebrations while maintaining international service standards, operational efficiency, and the attention to detail expected by global clientele. Beyond formal sessions, Retrouvailles 2026 placed strong emphasis on experience-led engagement. Networking unfolded through curated dinners, informal conversations, and cultural performances set within the venue’s open courtyards and heritage-inspired spaces. These interactions reflected the way the luxury wedding industry operates—relationship-driven, collaborative, and increasingly global in outlook. Adding an international perspective were senior leaders from global destination management companies and luxury hospitality brands such as Inventum Global, Rixos, and NG Phaselis Bay. Their participation underscored how India is now being evaluated alongside established luxury wedding destinations in Europe and the Mediterranean, particularly for destination-led celebrations involving global guests and multinational wedding entourages. Over the years, Retrouvailles has evolved into a platform that extends beyond networking. It has become a space where industry leaders exchange insights, discuss emerging trends, and explore collaborations that influence the direction of luxury weddings. Through EXP Exchange, Kanika Mehta continues to bring together planners, stakeholders, and thought leaders from India and abroad—many of whom work with global families and high-value clients. Retrouvailles 2026 ultimately reinforced a clear conclusion: India is no longer positioning itself as an emerging player in the luxury wedding market. It is already operating as a global leader—shaping conversations, setting standards, and hosting celebrations that resonate well beyond its borders.
