About the venue
Salon Paghman occupies a single ground-floor room in a house dating to 1687 on Wijnstraat, with its original ceiling beams and a hearth still intact. Manager Zafar Nabizada deliberately chose to keep it to one room rather than rent out several halls, so the salon is never split between two parties at once and a nikah always gets the whole house's attention; the name refers to the terraced gardens of Paghman near Kabul, which hang on the wall as a painting.
The salon seats 25 to 45 guests at long tables, exactly the size of the closest family at a nikah. Zafar usually replies within two days and can arrange a lunch of traditional Afghan dishes on request, delivered by a caterer two streets over. No alcohol is served, a small room beside the salon serves as a prayer room, and free parking is available on Wijnstraat after 6pm.

Recommendations
5 recommendations“Zafar deliberately chose to rent out only one room, and you could feel it, our nikah with 35 guests got the full attention of the entire 1687 house. The painting of the Paghman gardens on the wall gave the whole thing something special.”
“The original ceiling beams and hearth were genuinely impressive for such a small space. Zafar arranged a lunch of traditional Afghan dishes on request, delivered by a caterer two streets over, exactly within two days as promised.”
“With 45 guests at the long tables this was exactly the size of close family we had in mind. No alcohol, and free parking on Wijnstraat after 6pm made it easy for guests from outside Dordrecht.”
“One small downside: with 25 guests for our engagement the stately room sometimes felt a touch formal for such an intimate group. But the small prayer room beside the salon was exactly what my father needed during the afternoon.”
“The name Paghman and the painting on the wall nearly brought my in-laws to tears, they recognized the gardens instantly from before. One room, one wedding at a time, exactly as Zafar describes it himself, gave us all the calm we were looking for.”
