The Indian wedding was always a grand affair and now as Indian wallets are getting fatter, the Indian weddings are becoming a grander affair than they already were! That is why; wedding matchmakers are emerging in dozens every day in India and now a new generation of matchmakers have emerged who cater exclusively to the growing list of affluent, successful entrepreneurs and businessmen.

A new matrimonial website, Elite Matrimony, offers membership by invitation only and unlike matrimonial websites like shaadi.com and others, is only for candidates who have big moolah in their bank accounts. This website is only for those who have a net worth of over Rs.3 crore and more, and who are willing to shell out Rs.50, 000 to Rs.100, 000 as their membership fees. And for whoever thought India is a poor country, think again- Elite Matrimony already has a database of more than 50,000 high net worth individuals.

The Indian wedding market is currently estimated at 1.25 lac crore and average Indian weddings range from Rs.25 lac to nearly Rs.25 crore! Move over celebrity weddings, today an aam aadmi’s worth is seen in the weddings he throws! Indian weddings will always be here to stay.
