Are you ready for the B-talk? Yes, we are talking about the budget! Firstly, pull out the numbers comprising your savings, the amount you can comfortably save till the big day, and any contributions you expect from your parents. Ta-da! you get the ballpark budget you have at your disposal. Secondly, Folks, keep your paper-pencil or mobile at ready and start charting out all the negotiables and non-negotiables for your big day. As soon as you have a clear picture of what do you want on your big day, you can start splurging on shopping, food, decor, and above all, the venue.

Guest capacity totally depends on what sort of ceremony do you want on the big day - an intimate one or big fat one. For a destination wedding, people usually love to celebrate with their near and dear ones. Also, be prepared to expect a lot of regrets on your RSVP card as not everyone may be able to clear out their schedules to accommodate a destination wedding. So choose the venue accordingly!

Are you expecting some out-of-town guests for your big event or planning for a destination wedding? It is always preferable if your venue provides accommodation on the premise only. Keep your guest-list handy and make sure you have enough rooms for everybody planning to attend the event. Make reservations beforehand so that you don’t get stuck in an overbooking situation that marriage halls always face.

For a destination wedding, we suggest looking for party halls that come with catering services. Check out what's on their menu. Read their reviews online and take feedback from your friends who did plan their event there. Get in touch with the venue on phone or fly out for a tasting routine. Depending on your culinary preferences, you can explore an unlimited number of venues. If you have picked luxury party halls for celebration, then you may not have to worry about all this.

Many couples prefer a venue that delights their guests with alcoholic beverages. If you identify with those couples, you are in for a surprise as to how many venues you can explore. If alcohol is a big NO for you, then try for venues that believe in colas, juices, and water.

There are so many marriage halls that provide decor facilities for your big day. If you have something specific in mind, then you may go for outside decor artists as well. If you have a personal favorite and you are willing to fly them to the venue, then not an issue.

A destination wedding means you may be renting a lot many cars to run errands throughout that period. And that means a lot of parking space too. Do check with the venue if ample parking and valet parking facility is available. If you have International guests coming over, then a venue with a valet parking facility should be on your list.

A wedding ceremony without music - impossible! For a destination wedding, try to check out some local bands or DJ who share the same enthusiasm for music as you do. Discuss your music needs for the event and try to get on the same page. Prepare a playlist for your sangeet night, mehendi ceremony or any surprise dance performances you have planned for your big day. Don't forget to check out our Instagram page for music and dance inspirations!

Finding the best time to exchange vows can be a tricky one. Whether you want a summer wedding or winter wedding, please make sure to consult with your pandit to find the best muhurat for you. Though you can find a lot many dates to tie the knot from November through July, the weather of the city you choose can be a major factor. The month of April is considered to be the most favored by all as you are sure to have pleasant weather across the length and breadth of India.

But if you are planning to host a destination wedding, then that's a different ball game altogether. You can own any wedding season, you just need to be wise when picking the destination.
