Indian railway wedding

Are you the one who don’t want to settle down with the stereotype wedding style? Do you want to make your wedding memorable and want that people will remember with for ages? Well, if you are the one who want to go for a unique wedding style then platform wedding is just perfect for you. This is something really new and unique. You must have heard about the wedding as different wedding destinations, underwater wedding and wedding in air and on hills. But, this idea of wedding is something really unique and new. You can think beyond the traditional pattern of wedding where you find the set up in lavish restaurants, farm houses, banquet halls and hotels. Now, the Indian Railways is planning to open its sprawling stretches for couples to host their wedding receptions.

The Western Railways will be the first one to start this. It is most likely planning to open its gates for general public to conduct their wedding ceremonies and function at Surat and Navapur stations. The railway has sent the proposal to the ministry for approval. This unique idea is introduced to give a much desired boost to the economy for the sector. This special idea was suggested when the Union Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu had ordered railway departments to come up with some unique and different ideas to increase the overall profit of the department. A senior railways official said, “Surat station is massive, and there are people there who would actually pay to have their wedding receptions or parties on platforms as well. We will propose platform no. 4 for the project as it has two-three booking offices, which is ideal for these kinds of functions.

During the peak wedding season, at time many people find it difficult to get a venue on their preferred dates. The railway is planning to get the maximum benefits out of this. They are planning to open the door of their sprawling stretches for the common people during the month of December, apart from June and September. The officer also explained that busy stations in metropolitan cities and stations in Mumbai have to exempt from this list because of the overcrowded rails and rush. He further added, “But, few trains pass through stations like Navapur, and hence there will be more than enough space for such events.” Whether it will help the railway station to overcome from their losses or not, certainly, it would be a unique wedding theme and welcomed by all those who want to go for a unique wedding style.
