Best Bride & Groom Entry Ideas for Indian Weddings 2025

Our wedding day is all about making a grand statement—what better way to achieve that than with a spectacular entry for the bride or groom? In 2025, Indian weddings are embracing bigger, bolder, and more creative ways to create unforgettable first moments. Whether you envision a royal arrival or something fun and modern, we have the perfect list of trending bride and groom entry ideas that will wow your guests and make your big day truly memorable.

Here are the top bride and groom entry trends for 2025 that you should consider for your Indian wedding:

1. The Classic Royal Entry with Palki or Ghodi**

For the bride: A beautifully decorated palki (palanquin) adorned with floral details, accompanied by traditional music and dhol, remains a timeless favorite in 2025. This entry is perfect for brides who desire a royal and cultural ambiance.  

For the groom: Entering on a ghodi (horse) with a full baraat is a proud and powerful statement that never goes out of style.

2. Cold Pyro & Smoke Blast Entry

Add a magical touch to your entry with cold pyro effects, dry ice smoke, and fireworks. These safe, sparkly elements create a picture-perfect moment as the couple walks down the aisle or onto the stage.

Great for: Sangeet night, receptions, or wedding stage entry.

3. Dancing Entry with Friends & Family

 Let the music guide you! This year is all about fun, high-energy entries. Brides and grooms are entering the venue dancing to their favorite songs, with their squad cheering them on. Add LED dhol and choreographed steps, and you're set for a vibrant start!

4. Entry in Vintage Car, Jeep, or ATV

If you want to bring style and surprise, try an offbeat entry using a vintage car, a decorated Jeep, or an ATV. This is especially popular in outdoor and destination weddings.

Perfect for: Daytime haldi functions, mehendi ceremonies, or open lawn weddings.

5. Floral Tunnel or Fairy Light Entry

Romantic and dreamy! Brides and couples are now making grand entries through floral tunnels, LED fairy light arches, or personalized decor pathways designed with their favorite themes. Adding background music, a live violin, or a singer creates a cinematic moment.

6. LED Screen + Pre-Wedding Video Entry

This is a high-tech twist for 2025! A pre-shot video of your love story plays on a giant LED screen, and then you walk in as the screen lifts or fades. It's super unique and emotional.

7. Royal Elephant or Boat Entry (Destination Weddings)

For truly unique destinations like Udaipur or beach weddings in Goa or Alibaug, couples are opting for boat entries, elephant rides, or decorated bullock carts. It’s unforgettable and Instagram-worthy!

Tips to Choose the Right Entry Idea

• Match it with your venue type (indoor vs outdoor)

• Always confirm with the venue manager about permissions for smoke, pyro, or animals

• Consider your theme and outfit when planning the entry

• Keep backup music and effects ready
