Rishabh Nahata: Architecting the Future of Wedding Planning Through Happy Wedz

Rishabh Nahata, widely recognized as the “Architect of Weddings” and Founder of Happy Wedz, is leading the transformation of the wedding planning industry in India by building a structured, technology-driven ecosystem. His work sits at the intersection of wedding planning, hospitality, and digital innovation.

His journey began in 2014 with Nahata Sports Complex, where he introduced a dual-use model that evolved into Nahata Lawns & Banquets during non-sporting hours. This innovation created a scalable entry into the wedding venue business and gained traction through strong word-of-mouth.

As demand grew, he expanded into full-scale planning through Architect of Weddings. Having handled over 1000 weddings and catered to more than 1 lakh guests, Rishabh developed deep expertise in execution and coordination.

Beyond weddings, he co-founded The Travellers Together, a platform focused on curated luxury stays and experiences, bringing global exposure to hospitality and design thinking.

Recognizing gaps in vendor discovery and planning efficiency, he founded Happy Wedz, a platform designed to unify vendors, services, and planning tools. Built on structured data and evolving AI, it enables precise matching and seamless planning.

Looking ahead, Rishabh aims to integrate AI-driven styling and AR-based venue visualization, making wedding planning more immersive while taking Indian weddings to a global audience.
