What is a Walima?
The Walima is the wedding feast hosted by the groom's family after the Nikkah, to share the marriage with family and friends over a meal. Some are grand banqueting events, others are quieter and more formal.
We set up the room to match: Walima stages and seating, flowers and lighting, catering, live instrumental music such as strings or sitar if wanted, photographers and videographers, and a photo booth for guests.
Where it works best
Step 1
A Walima stage for the couple, styled to your colours
Step 2
Floral centrepieces and lighting for the hall
Step 3
Instrumental music during arrivals and dinner, if you would like it
Step 4
A photographer, videographer and photo booth for guests
Tips from our team
- 1
Match the stage to the hall
A big hall needs a big stage. Share the room size and ceiling height when you enquire.
- 2
Plan the couple's entrance
Even without music, a planned entrance with lighting gives everyone a moment to remember.
- 3
Keep the photos flowing
A photo booth keeps guests busy while the couple have their portraits taken.
