What makes the second edition of Vogue Wedding Atelier bigger than before

Following its debut edition in 2025, Vogue Wedding Atelier is set to return this year to Taj Palace, New Delhi, from 7–9 August 2026. This second edition will bring together over 60 brands spanning couture, high jewellery, beauty and luxury lifestyle, offering visitors a curated showcase of wedding trends, craftsmanship and experiences across various aspects of contemporary celebrations.

Making this year’s edition even more special is the India debut of Vogue Café , the celebrated global experiential concept that has travelled through New York, London and Paris before arriving in Delhi. Throughout the weekend, the café becomes a destination within the Vogue Wedding Atelier itself, a place to pause between discovering couture collections, attending conversations with industry experts and exploring immersive luxury experiences.
