Hyderabad Fort, or Fort Grand, is a stunning location for a destination wedding in Hyderabad and probably in all of India too. The enormous property has space for multiple events to take place here with anywhere from 500 - 3,000 people able to attend an event in one space.

There are multiple reasons why it is such a sought after place in the destination wedding circuit. The major reason is the humungous spaces it has to offer. The fort has multiple indoor and outdoor areas to cater to masses of all kinds. Apart from that, the palatial exterior of the fort makes it the perfect place for couples who want a royal wedding.

Located outside the city, Hyderabad Fort is a calm and peaceful place away from the hubbub of daily life. If you’re not sure about whether this venue is right for you, keep reading because we’re here to tell you why this venue is amazing. The following are a few points that you should keep in mind while selecting the fort for your destination wedding!

1. The setting

The setting of this destination wedding spot is nothing short of magical. Many people even think that it looks like Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Others believe that it looks like the huge mansion in the popular Bollywood movie, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. Every guest of yours will be stunned when they come face to face with the fort. Apart from the opulent and open outdoors, the banquet halls in the complex are incredibly beautiful options for you to explore. Each banquet hall has its own décor theme with each getting increasing in its grandeur, along with the size of the hall.

2. Number of guests it can hold

As mentioned above, Hyderabad Fort has several venues for you to choose from. The basic criteria for selection is the number of guests attending the wedding. Fort Grand has 3 indoor spaces and 3 outdoor spaces with each one bigger than the other. In the indoors category, there are three banquet halls with seating capacities of 500, 1000 and 1500 people each. For the outdoors, three huge open spaces or gardens are available for you that can host 1000, 2000 and 3000 guests each.

3. Décor

The pre-existing décor is that of the exterior structures and the lush green gardens, both of which are responsible for bringing character to Hyderabad Fort. One seeing its beauty, you may end up thinking that hosting an event inside the banquet hall won’t be as visually stunning as an outdoor one, and we can’t fault you for that. However, this isn’t true! The décor there too is equally stunning. Another huge advantage of this location is that you can bring your own caterers and decorators to handle everything at this place, making it highly customizable, which is not the case with most palaces or heritage hotels.

4. Average budget

Even though Hyderabad Fort is a destination wedding venue, it is not that expensive when compared to others from in the same category. The costing per plate is close to ₹ 1100 for Veg and ₹ 1300 for Non-veg food. The total cost will depend on the number of guests you invite, obviously. For instance, if you are planning to call around 1000 people then the average budget for the wedding would be anywhere close to ₹ 11,00,000 to ₹ 15,00,000.

5. Planning

The planning of a grand Indian wedding starts months ago before the wedding date. In fact, it may even start sooner if it is a destination wedding. At Hyderabad Fort, you can get in touch with their in-house wedding planner for the best possible planning and decorations. You can further customise the designs there according to your preference. They even allow you to hire a wedding planner by yourself if you aren’t satisfied with their services.

6. Catering

7. Miscellaneous

The location also has unlimited alcohol service on offer, with a pay per bottle policy for charges. The swimming pool is another addition to the décor of the location and a cool area for guests to chill.
