Planning a wedding in Malabar

  • Getting there. Kozhikode (CCJ) for Kozhikode and the central coast; Kannur (CNN) for Kannur, Bekal and Kasaragod.
  • The ceremony booking. Muslim families here plan around the mahal and the nikah, often with the main feast on a separate day. Agree both dates before booking the hall.
  • The cook. Around Kozhikode the biryani caterer is often booked before the venue. Check the hall allows your caterer and has space for the cooking.
  • The rain plan. Beach and lawn settings at Bekal need a covered plan in the monsoon months. The rain plan guide has the details.

We come to Malabar for site visits at the shortlisted venues; the first conversations happen on video.

What happens after you enquire

  1. A call within one working day. From the planning team, to hear the date, the numbers and the community the wedding follows.
  2. A written scope and a fee band. What we would do for this wedding and what it costs, before you decide anything.
  3. A video walkthrough if you are abroad. Shortlisted venues walked on camera in your evening, so the single trip to Kerala is spent deciding, not looking.

Planning this venue from abroad

From the Gulf, the UK or North America, see the hall, the rooms and the covered space for a monsoon day on a video call first. Put the rate, the advance dates and the decor approval in writing so the family at home and abroad read the same terms. Keep the one trip to Kerala for the tasting and a last walk through. How planning from abroad works.
