The mandap on the Weerwater's bank, with a reflection in the lake.
The landscaped garden around the palace, with paths for the photo shoot.
The separate room for the henna night, apart from the main hall.
The terrace by the water, where guests can sit between parts of the celebration.
“The mandap really is set at the water, not just marketing talk. During the ceremony you could see the reflection in the Weerwater, which gave a completely different feel than a hall with a curtain as backdrop.”
“The on-site tandoor made a big difference for our catering, everything reached the table hot and fresh for 320 guests. Anjali always replied within two days, exactly as stated.”
“The separate henna night room was spacious enough for our whole family, with its own floor cushions. We did not have to look for a separate venue like our first plan required.”
“The tassa drummers were genuinely allowed to play outside for the baraat, exactly as we hoped. The sound carried across the whole estate, distant neighbours were not bothered by it.”
“The landscaped garden paths had just changed flower beds for our spring photo shoot, exactly as the website said. The paths themselves were also wheelchair-friendly for my grandmother.”
“For 380 guests the palace never felt full, there was still space left around the mandap. Anjali discussed everything in Hindoestaans with my in-laws, which gave them a lot of confidence.”
