In a recent report, KPMG revealed that the Indian wedding industry is the second largest in the world after the US with an approximate size of $50 billion – an astounding number. Unlike other industries, the Indian wedding industry is dominated by a core group of stakeholders who control the majority of the market. Retrouvailles is a platform that brings together these stakeholders – all real-life rockstars – to celebrate and appreciate their work. Retrouvailles is a French word which means: the joy of reuniting with someone after a long period of time.
