New Delhi, June 30: Set against the forests of Jim Corbett, Aahana Resort & Spa, Jim Corbett recently hosted the wedding celebrations of Ms. Megha Gupta, daughter of the Chief Justice of Uttarakhand, Justice Manoj Kumar Gupta, marking another significant milestone in the resort’s journey as one of the country’s most trusted addresses for private luxury weddings.
The celebration was graced by the presence of the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Shri Pushkar Singh Dhami, Governor of Uttarakhand Lt. Gen. Retd. Gurmit Singh along with close to 30 to 35 members of the judiciary, including senior figures from the Supreme Court of India and various High Courts. Their presence lent rare stature to the occasion and underscored the confidence Aahana has built among families whose celebrations call for discretion, care and impeccable execution.
The wedding unfolded as a forest-led celebration, with nature woven into the rituals, décor, dining and guest experience. The festivities began beneath Aahana’s banyan tree, regarded in Indian tradition as a symbol of longevity and new beginnings, setting the tone for a celebration rooted in blessing, family and place. Across the resort’s open-air venues, lawns, forest-framed spaces and Uttarakhand’s largest pillarless ballroom, the wedding brought together the intimacy of nature-led rituals with the scale and refinement expected of a high–profile celebration.
Conscious luxury remained central to the experience. Décor drew from the surrounding wilderness, while the culinary offering featured produce grown within Aahana’s in-house organic gardens, served farm-to-table across the festivities. Thoughtful planning, mindful use of resources and intuitive hospitality allowed the celebration to retain its grandeur while staying true to the resort’s nature-led philosophy. As part of the festivities, the couple and their families also planted a tree within the resort grounds, marking the occasion with a lasting symbol of growth, continuity and new beginnings.
Speaking about their decision to host the celebrations at Aahana, the Gupta family said,
“Aahana’s connection with nature and its values were central to our choice of venue. The setting allowed us to create a wedding that felt both meaningful and responsible. The tree plantation ceremony by the couple and our families was a particularly special moment, one that will continue to hold meaning for years to come.”
Speaking on the occasion, Ayu Tripathi, Director, Aahana Resort & Spa, Jim Corbett, said,
“The most memorable celebrations are the ones that feel deeply connected to the place they are set in. The Gupta family’s vision for this wedding resonated strongly with our own approach to hospitality and meaningful experiences. Set amidst the forests of Jim Corbett, the celebration brought together luxury and responsibility in a way that felt true to the destination. We were honoured to host the family and be part of such a special occasion.”
The wedding clearly speaks to Uttarakhand’s growing prominence as a destination for celebrations that seek more than conventional grandeur. As Devbhoomi, the land of the gods, the state carries a natural sense of blessing, purity and belonging, making it especially meaningful for weddings and personal milestones. Within this evolving tourism landscape, Aahana Resort & Spa, Jim Corbett continues to contribute to the state’s luxury hospitality narrative through high–profile weddings, wellness-led stays, Spa L’OCCITANE, private pool villas, farm-to-table dining, expansive lawns, forest-inspired outdoor venues and one of Uttarakhand’s largest pillarless ballrooms.
