Coorg
The Royal Wedding Destination of India
Coorg, a coffee-and-spice plantation hill region in Karnataka's Western Ghats, offers a forested, plantation-country wedding setting distinct from anywhere else in South India's destination-wedding circuit.
The Karnataka Wedding Destination
Why Choose Coorg for Your Wedding?
Coorg's appeal is its genuine coffee-plantation character — resorts here are set directly within working coffee estates rather than simply near them, giving weddings a forested, misty hill-country backdrop with a cooler climate than the surrounding plains.

Coorg offers a hill-country coffee-plantation setting with a cooler, forested character, while Kumarakom is Kerala's signature backwater and lakeside destination — both South Indian, but with genuinely different landscapes.
