Marriage Venues

Marriage venues are available in Ludhiana to suit every sized pocket. But the choice of the venue will depend on the wedding theme, the number of guests, the ceremonies to be conducted, buffet or sit down dinner, live band, indoor or outdoor arrangements etc. Basically, one should look for a place that can be transformed into what is needed for a dream wedding. Other factors such as what look is required is also an important deciding factor; for example, a natural, beautiful look or an elegant, banquet feel?

So, depending on the type of wedding, discuss the size and the number of functions with your side, your fiancé and both sets of parents. Put a ceiling on the number of guests at each event. Expect little more guests for each event. First and foremost, start thinking of wedding halls as per the size of the invitees, distance from your residence, and the season of the year - for example during rains you may need to prefer an indoor location. Choose accordingly between outdoor & indoor locale.

Begin searching for the right venue(s), that exclusive location where the auspicious moment of a sacred union between two souls, two families & two destinies will be celebrated! And that means to aim for perfection, in respect of making the venue a gorgeous backdrop for the grand event.

Be sure to assess the practicalities of any venue you survey: If there are enough parking spaces for your guests? If it is outdoors, will the weather be good? If electrical, sanity & ventilation facilities are enough? Does the venue have a Fire Safety Certificate? Then make sure you get a quote before finalizing everything & ensure that there are no hidden extras. Never assume anything on the basis of a single conversation. Have all your bookings confirmed in writing. (Check Reception Sect)

• Visit possible venue (s) to discuss availability & get the required reservations.

• Give extra marks to the venues, which have a comfortable road access and grand out look.
• Check the seating arrangements/ capacity, music, parking space, fire safety, electricity & power back-up etc.
• If the marriage function is planned outdoors, check for weather conditions & permission from related authorities.
• Discuss with both the family heads and finalize the venue.
• To avoid the heavy rush of the marriage season, book the venue once the dates of pre-wedding & wedding ceremonies have been fixed.
