A Heritage Lawn Set Within a Restored Palace

The Main Lawn at RAAS Devigarh is the open-air centrepiece of one of Rajasthan's most celebrated heritage properties — a meticulously restored 18th-century palace located in Delwara, approximately 28 kilometres from Udaipur. Framed by the palace's centuries-old stone architecture and set against the Aravalli hills, the lawn offers a setting that is genuinely difficult to replicate: the grandeur of a palace courtyard with the openness of a Rajasthani sky above. The space carries an atmosphere that is both regal and intimate — formal enough for milestone celebrations, yet unhurried and personal in a way that larger banquet venues rarely achieve. The natural palette of pale stone, soft greenery, and the surrounding fort walls means the space is visually striking even before a single decoration is placed.

Events & Occasions

The Main Lawn is particularly well-suited to weddings and wedding-related ceremonies — sangeets, mehndis, cocktail evenings, and wedding receptions — where the palace backdrop becomes part of the event's aesthetic rather than simply its venue. Corporate retreats and private celebrations also find a natural home here, with the exclusivity of the boutique property ensuring that every event booked on the lawn has the full attention of the hotel's dedicated team. Because RAAS Devigarh operates as a boutique property with a limited number of suites, events on the Main Lawn are by nature private and curated, making it a preferred choice for host families and planners who want exclusivity as a baseline rather than an upgrade. The interplay of natural daylight and evening illumination — with the palace lit against the night — gives events an entirely different character depending on the time of day, offering planners a flexible canvas across multi-day wedding programmes.

Location & Setting

Delwara sits in the Udaipur district of Rajasthan, placing RAAS Devigarh within comfortable reach of one of India's most beloved heritage travel destinations. Guests travelling from Udaipur city can reach the property in under an hour, and Maharana Pratap Airport in Udaipur connects the region to major Indian cities. The surrounding Aravalli landscape — rolling hills, rocky outcrops, and the quiet of a village setting — gives the property and its Main Lawn a sense of remove from the city that is increasingly rare for a destination event space. For families planning multi-day weddings or corporate off-sites, the on-site accommodation means guests can move seamlessly between the event, the suites, and the property's other curated spaces without ever leaving the palace grounds. That self-contained quality — a working palace with accommodation, dining, and event space all within a single historic property — is among the most compelling reasons planners and couples choose The Main Lawn over more conventional Udaipur venues.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Main Lawn is particularly well-suited to weddings and wedding-related functions such as sangeets, mehndis, cocktail evenings, and receptions, where the 18th-century palace architecture serves as a dramatic natural backdrop. Corporate retreats, private celebrations, and milestone gatherings also work well in this setting. The boutique nature of RAAS Devigarh means the lawn is never shared between multiple concurrent events, which makes it a strong choice for hosts who prioritise exclusivity.

RAAS Devigarh is located in Delwara, approximately 28 kilometres from Udaipur city. Most guests travel by road, which takes under an hour from the city centre. Maharana Pratap Airport in Udaipur is the nearest airport and connects the region to major Indian cities, making it accessible for outstation guests.

The Main Lawn is an open-air venue set within the palace grounds, which means it offers an unobstructed view of the Aravalli hills and the Rajasthani sky — a core part of its appeal. Weather contingency arrangements, such as temporary structures or the use of indoor palace spaces, should be discussed directly with the RAAS Devigarh events team when planning the event. Given Rajasthan's climate, many events are planned for the cooler months between October and March.

Yes, RAAS Devigarh is a boutique hotel with guest suites housed within the restored palace, allowing wedding guests and the host family to stay on-site. This creates a self-contained destination wedding experience where guests can move between the event, their accommodation, and the property's other spaces without leaving the palace grounds. The exact number of suites and room-type availability should be confirmed directly with the reservations team.

Evening events are a natural fit for The Main Lawn, as the palace and surrounding stone architecture are beautifully illuminated after dark, giving the setting a completely different and equally striking character to daytime functions. Specific permissions regarding event timings, noise levels, and music curfews in Delwara should be confirmed with the RAAS Devigarh events team during the planning process, as local regulations may apply.

Prospective clients are encouraged to reach out to the RAAS Devigarh events team directly through the official website at raashotels.com or by contacting the property. The team will advise on available dates, package structures, and pricing based on the nature and scale of the event. Given the boutique size of the property and the exclusivity it offers, popular wedding-season dates tend to book well in advance.

RAAS Devigarh has its own food and beverage operations as part of the hotel. Whether outside caterers are permitted on the property, and under what conditions, is a detail that should be confirmed with the events team. Most heritage hotels of this nature offer curated in-house menus that can be customised to the event's theme and dietary requirements.

The Aravalli hills form the natural backdrop to the palace at Delwara, giving The Main Lawn a landscape context that is distinct from urban event venues in Udaipur or Jaipur. The surrounding hills and the quiet of the village setting lend events a sense of remove and exclusivity that resonates particularly well with destination weddings and private retreats. This natural framing means the venue has strong visual character even before décor or lighting is added.

RAAS Devigarh has multiple curated spaces within the restored 18th-century palace, and it is common for multi-day weddings or corporate programmes to use a combination of indoor and outdoor spaces across different functions. The specific configuration of spaces available alongside The Main Lawn should be discussed with the events team, who can help design a programme that makes the most of the property's architecture. This flexibility is one of the reasons planners choose RAAS Devigarh for multi-ceremony wedding weekends.

RAAS Devigarh is a well-regarded boutique heritage property in the Udaipur region and is recognised as a destination wedding venue in Rajasthan. The property's combination of a restored palace, curated suites, and open-air spaces like The Main Lawn has made it a recurring choice for intimate, design-conscious weddings. The hotel has a dedicated events team experienced in coordinating weddings, celebrations, and corporate events on-property.

The Main Lawn's pale stone architecture and natural surroundings provide a neutral but visually rich canvas that works with a wide range of décor styles, from traditional Rajasthani to contemporary luxury. The property works with event designers and vendors to create customised setups, and the palace's illumination after dark is a significant feature for evening events. Specific décor policies, preferred vendor lists, and lighting infrastructure should be confirmed with the RAAS Devigarh events team.

Parking arrangements at the property should be confirmed directly with the RAAS Devigarh team, particularly for larger events where guest vehicles may arrive in significant numbers. Given the property's location in Delwara village rather than a city centre, on-site or nearby parking is generally more manageable than at urban venues. The events team can advise on logistics for guest arrivals and transfers.

RAAS Devigarh is a restored 18th-century palace, and as with many heritage properties, the architectural layout may include uneven surfaces, steps, or areas with limited accessibility. Guests or planners with specific mobility requirements are encouraged to contact the property directly so the team can advise on the most suitable arrangements and access routes within the venue.

Unlike standalone banquet lawns or hotel garden venues, The Main Lawn is embedded within a working boutique palace where accommodation, dining, and event spaces all coexist on the same historic property. The restored 18th-century fort architecture of RAAS Devigarh, the Aravalli hill backdrop in Delwara, and the property's commitment to design and exclusivity combine to create an experience that goes beyond a rented outdoor space. The self-contained nature of a destination property — where guests eat, sleep, and celebrate without leaving the palace grounds — is a meaningful distinction for multi-day events.

Yes, RAAS Devigarh is well-positioned as a destination wedding venue for international guests, with Udaipur being a popular international travel destination and Maharana Pratap Airport providing connections to major Indian hubs. The property's boutique hotel facilities mean that international guests can be accommodated on-site in palace suites, and the events team is experienced in coordinating with families planning weddings that bring together guests from multiple locations. Specific requirements around logistics, transfers, and extended stays should be discussed with the hotel directly.
