Here are top Sri Lanka hotels that are popular for Indian destination weddings, with why couples choose them and an example source for their wedding offerings. (I focused on properties that offer large ballrooms or scenic outdoor venues, experience with Indian rituals/menus, and dedicated wedding teams.)

• Galle Face Hotel (Colombo) — historic landmark in Colombo with multiple ballrooms and large outdoor lawns (venues for up to 1,000 guests). Strongly promoted Kalyanam / Indian-style packages and full wedding coordination. (gallefacehotel.com)

• Taj Samudra (Colombo) — beachfront/rooftop ballrooms with panoramic ocean views; large ballrooms (250–350 pax+) and experienced events team for lavish receptions. Good for city-based large-scale ceremonies and multi-event programs. (tajhotels.com)

• Cinnamon Grand / Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo — well-known Colombo properties with multiple banquets, curated wedding packages and experience hosting Indian weddings and multi-day functions. Best for convenient-city weddings with big-capacity halls. (cinnamonhotels.com)

• Shangri‑La Hambantota (and Shangri‑La Colombo) — large modern resort venues and beachfront lawns; can host very large multi-day Indian weddings (grand ballrooms and expansive outdoor lawns). Offers bespoke “Weddings by Shangri‑La” services for multicultural ceremonies. (Shangri-La.com)

• Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle (Anantara) — cliff- and beach-front venues with dramatic ocean backdrops, excellent for outdoor pheras, mehendi and intimate-to-medium destination weddings with bespoke planning. (Anantara.com)

• Heritance Hotels (notably Heritance Kandalama, Ahungalla, Tea Factory) — architecturally unique settings (forest/reservoir, beach, tea-plantation) used for culturally rich ceremonies; they promote destination wedding packages and can stage traditional Hindu/South-Asian rituals. Kandalama is especially notable for dramatic, heritage-style ceremonies. (heritancehotels.com)

• Heritance Aarah / Jetwing / other coastal resorts (examples vary) — several high-quality resorts around the south and west coast (Tangalle, Galle, Ahungalla, Negombo) regularly host Indian wedding events—beach ceremonies, beachfront banquets and multi-day celebration logistics. (Check the specific property for guest capacity and Indian-menu options.) (heritancehotels.com)

Quick planning tips

• Capacity & timing: confirm guest capacity for your ceremony, reception and any pre-wedding nights (many venues list separate capacities for ballrooms vs outdoor lawns). (gallefacehotel.com)
• Ritual needs: ask about a private dressing room, mandap setup options, permitted timings for religious rites, and power/back-up for sound/lighting. (gallefacehotel.com)
• Catering: confirm ability to provide regional Indian menus (south/north/vegetarian/Jain), and whether you can bring specialist chefs or vendors. (hospitality.economictimes.indiatimes.com)
• Multi-day packages / guest rooms: request group room blocks, airport transfers, and multi-day event pricing (many hotels provide wedding brochures and RFP/wedding coordinators). (Anantara.com)

If you want, I can:

• shortlist 3–5 hotels for your preferred region (Colombo / South Coast / Cultural Triangle) and guest-size,
• fetch current wedding brochure links, sample package prices or contact emails for the hotels you like (I’ll look these up and include direct sources).
