Some of the best Indian wedding venues across Australia are the places that can host a large event for all the extended family to attend. Most Indian weddings are large occasions of 200+ guests, bringing in authentic Indian fare and varying layers of tradition. All the venues included in this guide suit 200+ guests and either offer in-house Indian catering menus or the option to bring in an approved caterer that specialises in Indian dining.
Before we jump in, a traditional Indian wedding is a sight to behold: Picture grand floral designs with colourful bursts of flowers decorating the Mandap and bright floral garlands exchanged between partners. Conjure up the fragrances of delicious curries and spiced cordials. And don’t forget lighting the Agni at the ceremony, a sacred fire ritual shared between the couple.
Traditions spread throughout many days of events for these grand, celebratory occasions. And you can’t go past the gorgeous fashion you’ll see in the couple’s attire and draped across the entire event.
