About Frangipani Lawn
An Open-Air Setting Rooted in Rajasthani Grandeur
The Frangipani Lawn at Mementos by ITC Hotels Ekaaya is an expansive outdoor event space that draws its character from the serene, heritage-rich landscape surrounding Eklingji in Rajasthan. Named after the frangipani flower — a bloom long associated with grace and celebration across the Indian subcontinent — this lawn offers an alfresco canvas where natural beauty and thoughtful hospitality converge. The setting reflects the understated elegance that defines the Mementos by ITC Hotels collection: spaces that honour their surroundings while delivering the refined service expected of the ITC Hotels brand.
The lawn unfolds against a backdrop shaped by the Aravalli hills and the temple town of Eklingji, lending events here a sense of place that no interior ballroom can replicate. Whether bathed in the golden light of a Rajasthan sunset or lit under a canopy of stars, the Frangipani Lawn creates an atmosphere that feels both rooted in the region and effortlessly celebratory. The fragrance and visual softness of the garden setting make it particularly well suited to occasions that call for romance, intimacy, and a genuine connection with the landscape.
Events the Frangipani Lawn is Made For
The Frangipani Lawn is designed to host a wide range of celebratory and social gatherings, with wedding functions at the very centre of its purpose. From mehendi and sangeet evenings to open-air wedding ceremonies and reception dinners under the Rajasthan sky, the space lends itself naturally to the multi-day, multi-function format that destination weddings in this region are known for. The lawn format allows for flexible furniture and décor arrangements, making it equally suitable for cocktail receptions, sundowners, and milestone birthday or anniversary celebrations.
Corporate groups and incentive travellers who choose Mementos by ITC Hotels Ekaaya for retreat-style gatherings will also find the Frangipani Lawn a compelling option for informal networking dinners, gala evenings, or outdoor team-engagement activities — occasions where a formal meeting room gives way to the relaxed energy of an open garden. The hotel's event planning team works with guests to configure the lawn with staging, lighting, floral installations, and audio-visual equipment suited to each occasion.
Location and Why It Matters for Your Event
Eklingji sits in the Mewar region of Rajasthan, roughly 22 kilometres north of Udaipur — a city celebrated internationally as one of India's most romantic destinations. This proximity to Udaipur means that guests travelling for a destination wedding or corporate retreat can combine the tranquillity of a quieter, more intimate location with easy access to one of Rajasthan's most iconic cities and its airport.
The temple town of Eklingji itself, with its ancient Shiva temples dating back to the eighth century, gives the locale a cultural depth that enriches the experience of celebrating here. For event planners searching for a Rajasthan venue that steps beyond the familiar Jaipur or central-Udaipur circuit, the Frangipani Lawn at Mementos by ITC Hotels Ekaaya offers genuine distinction — a hotel garden with the Aravallis on the horizon, heritage all around, and the full backing of ITC Hotels' event infrastructure and culinary expertise behind every gathering.

The property is located in Eklingji, approximately 22 kilometres north of Udaipur. This makes it accessible for guests flying into Maharana Pratap Airport, Udaipur, while still offering the quieter, more secluded atmosphere of a destination removed from the city centre. Guests should confirm transfer arrangements with the hotel.
Eklingji is a historic temple town in the Mewar region of Rajasthan, known for its ancient Shiva temples that date back to the eighth century. Hosting a wedding or celebration here gives events a backdrop of genuine cultural and spiritual heritage, which many couples and families find adds depth and meaning to milestone occasions. The surrounding Aravalli hills further enhance the scenic character of the setting.

Specific room types, counts, and availability should be confirmed directly with the hotel's reservations team.
Yes, the lawn is well positioned for the multi-function format typical of Indian destination weddings, covering events such as mehendi, sangeet, the wedding ceremony itself, and a reception dinner.

The Frangipani Lawn can be dressed with floral installations, ambient and stage lighting, drapery, and custom furniture arrangements to suit the tone of an event. ITC Hotels properties typically work with experienced event and décor vendors, and the on-site team can guide couples or planners on approved vendors and setup possibilities. Specific packages and restrictions on décor should be discussed with the events team at the time of booking.
Audio-visual equipment, sound systems, and staging can be arranged for events at the Frangipani Lawn through the hotel's events team. The exact inventory of in-house AV equipment and any provisions for external technical suppliers are best confirmed directly with the property, as requirements vary significantly between event types.

Details on menu customisation, bar arrangements, and any policy on external caterers should be directed to the hotel's events team.
While the Frangipani Lawn's garden setting and romantic atmosphere make it a natural fit for weddings, it is also a strong choice for corporate groups seeking an outdoor gala evening, informal networking dinner, or team-engagement activity in a distinctive Rajasthan setting. The Mementos by ITC Hotels Ekaaya property caters to both leisure and MICE segments. Corporate enquiries can be directed to the hotel's events or sales team.
Unlike venues located within central Udaipur, the Frangipani Lawn sits in Eklingji — a quieter, heritage temple town about 22 kilometres north of the city, backed by the Aravalli hills. This gives events a more secluded and culturally immersive character, stepping away from the busier hotel strips closer to Lake Pichola. For couples wanting the Rajasthan destination-wedding experience with a sense of genuine place, this distinction is meaningful.
Parking facilities are generally available at hotel properties of this type, but the specific capacity and any arrangements for large event-day guest traffic should be confirmed with the hotel directly. For destination weddings with significant guest numbers arriving by car or coach, it is advisable to discuss logistics with the events team in advance.
As an outdoor venue in a temple town, the Frangipani Lawn may be subject to local municipal noise regulations or curfew timings that affect how late amplified music can continue. The hotel's events team is the right point of contact to understand what is permissible, and couples planning late-night receptions or sangeet evenings with live music should raise this early in the planning process.
Enquiries about availability, pricing, and event packages for the Frangipani Lawn can be submitted through the ITC Hotels official website at itchotels.com, or by contacting the Mementos by ITC Hotels Ekaaya property directly via their reservations and events contact details. Providing the event date, estimated guest count, and type of function will help the team respond with a relevant proposal.
The frangipani — known as champa in many Indian traditions — is a flower long associated with grace, celebration, and auspicious occasions across the subcontinent, making it a natural symbol for a space dedicated to life's most cherished events. Its fragrance and soft aesthetic also reflect the garden-like, sensory quality the lawn is intended to offer. The name connects the space to both the floral landscape of Rajasthan and the spirit of celebration it is designed to host.
