Australia tourism officials are looking at this opportunity to woo more honeymoon travelers from India.

New South Wales tourism in particular is very excited because India is 11th biggest market for the state. Considering the fact that India will become one of the top inbound market for Australia by 2020 worth $2.25 billion, the excitement around the show is understandable.
