Choosing a wedding or event hall

The hall is one of the biggest line items of any event, and halls differ widely in price and services. Comparing well before booking saves you significant amounts.

Capacity matches your guest count

Estimate your guests realistically and pick a hall that fits them comfortably. Too small feels crowded; too large looks empty and costs more for no reason.

Ask about included services

• Stage (kosha), lighting, sound, and screens.
• Catering and buffet — from the hall or an outside caterer?
• Parking, a separate section, and restrooms.
• AC and a backup generator for power.

Calculate the full cost

Don't look at the hall price alone. Ask about any extra fees: catering, cleaning, overtime, add-on services. Get a detailed written quote covering everything to avoid surprises.

Booking and deposit

Popular halls book early, especially in season. Secure it with a deposit and a written agreement stating the date, time, services, final price, and cancellation policy — and keep it all documented.
