Mahabaleshwar, being one of the most touristy hill stations of Maharashtra, and easily reachable from all prime cities of the state, makes this a hot spot to host gala wedding sagas. Which also means that you can expect them to sell out completely on wedding muhurat dates. So it is advisable to make those bookings right after your wedding dates have been finalised, not to miss out on your most preferred venue. And while you’re at it, pre-book your bridal makeup artist and caterers in advance too to avoid last-minute cancellations and hassle.
