The guides

Planning a Bangalore wedding: the working guides

These 21 guides from The Bangalore Wedding House answer the questions families ask first: what Bangalore venues charge per plate, whether a kalyana mantapa or a hotel suits the list, which 2026–27 muhurat dates fill first, and what Kannadiga, Brahmin, Gowda and Lingayat weddings need from a venue.

What a Bangalore wedding costs

Per-plate and rental rates for the venues that publish them, band by band.

Mantapa, hotel or resort?

The three kinds of Bangalore venue, and which wedding each one actually suits.

The airport question

Venues for a guest list that flies in — the north-Bangalore arithmetic.

The Kannadiga wedding, properly explained

Dhare, kashi yatre, the antarpata and the three knots — the rituals, and what each one needs from a venue.

Wedding dates 2026–27, and the venue math

The verified muhurat calendar, the South Indian difference, and which weeks Bangalore’s halls will sell first.

Telugu, Tamil, and the city that hosts them all

The Telugu midnight muhurtham, the TamBrahm two-morning wedding, Iyer and Iyengar — what each asks of a Bangalore venue.

The fire question

The havan is non-negotiable in the rite and negotiable with every hotel. Which venue types allow it, and what to fix in writing.

The 12-month Bangalore checklist

The booking sequence in Bangalore order: date from the priest, hall inside the fortnight, caterer and photographer next.

Moving the wedding through Bangalore

Traffic is the city’s co-planner: transport math, timing rules and the outstation-guest plan.

Hotel wedding venues in Bangalore

Every hotel on the venue file side by side: ballroom capacity, rooms for outstation guests and per-plate rates with their sources.

Resort wedding venues in Bangalore

The resorts on the venue file side by side: rooms first, then guests, who caters and the rate with its source.

Outdoor wedding venues in Bangalore

Every lawn and garden on the venue file, the guest figure each one gives, prices with sources and the covered fallback to agree.

Heritage and palace wedding venues

Palaces, estates and old houses that take weddings, how each one charges, and the house rules to ask for.

Nandi Hills wedding venues, compared

The hill and foothill properties side by side: guests, rooms, rates and what each file records.

Coorg wedding venues, compared

The Coorg resorts on file: how many guests each holds, how many it can house, and the monsoon question.

Before you book

What a quote should include, sizing the guest count, when to book and planning from abroad.

How we work

What the studio does, in the order we do it.

Kannadiga wedding venues in Bangalore

What dhare, var puje and a morning muhurtham each need from a building, and which halls in the book carry it.

Brahmin wedding venues: Madhwa, Smartha, Iyengar

The fullest Vedic form needs a fire, an oonjal rig and a five-in-the-morning start. Which venues take all three.

Lingayat wedding venues in Bangalore

A rite with no homa and a strictly vegetarian table asks a completely different question of a venue.

Gowda & Vokkaliga wedding venues in Bangalore

The dibbane procession, kashi yatre on the wedding morning itself, and the halls with room to run them.

What happens next

  1. A written reply. A short list from the venue book with the figures we hold, and the two or three questions your family will need to settle first.
  2. A call at a time that suits your clock. WhatsApp or video, arranged around the people who make the decisions. Date, venue kind, numbers and the muhurtham hour get settled on it.
  3. Current quotes and date checks from the venues on the list. We ask each venue for availability on your muhurtham date and its rules on homa, outside catering and timings before anything is booked. Nothing is booked without you.
