Say Your Vows Beside the Flowing Mountain Stream
There is nothing more romantic than a wedding mandap set up beside a sparkling mountain stream, surrounded by forested valley walls. While commercial venues offer artificial backdrops, the **Heval River bank** at Hideaway Camp & Resort provides an authentic, natural, and premium ecosystem for your destination wedding.
Located in Mohanchatti, just outside the crowded center of Rishikesh, our resort borders the clean, clear waters of the Heval River. The gentle sound of running water, clean mountain breeze, and scenic views of the Garhwal Himalayas combine to create a magical atmosphere for your celebration.
Our Unique Riverside Venue Spaces
Hideaway offers a combination of beautiful outdoor and covered spaces, allowing you to plan distinct themes for each of your pre-wedding and wedding rituals:
1. The Riverside Wedding Lawn
Our spacious, manicured lawn is located directly along the riverfront. It is flat, elder-friendly, and can easily accommodate up to 150 guests for the main wedding mandap, dining buffets, and lounge seating. At night, string lights reflecting off the river create a glowing canopy effect.
2. Private Pebble Beaches
Our property has direct pathways to the clean sand and pebble shores of the Heval River. This private beach area is a favorite spot for hosting morning prayers, river-shores hi-tea, and romantic sunset pre-wedding photoshoots.
3. Natural Poolside Deck
For vibrant daytime rituals like Haldi and Mehendi, our swimming pool deck is surrounded by lush green slopes, providing a beautiful backdrop for colorful decor and photography.
