Muslim Weddings – What to Expect

Your Asian & Muslim Wedding Provider – What to Look For

Your wedding is probably one of the most important days of your life. This applies both to the bride and groom. We Muslims, love nothing more than a big family wedding where the day is full of food and fun. We love to surprise our wonderful guests and show them a really good time.

Muslim and Asian weddings come at a cost too and so it’s a significant investment. It’s something a young girl plans for her whole life and so when the day finally comes, you want to ensure that your event was truly magical a one-off. Something you will remember for many years and show your children and even the grandchildren.

With all of this in mind, we thought we’d highlight some of the important & key components of a typical Muslim wedding. If this is your first time, then what should you expect? What is standard and what is going outside of the usual features?

What can you expect for your Muslim or Asian Wedding?

The Venue

First of all, the muslim wedding venues needs to be absolutely beautiful. It needs to be able to elicit a gasp from your guests upon arrival. It should be elegant yet beautiful. Understated but a clear sophistication. It should be a venue where the decoration is tasteful and appeals both to the younger demographic as well as the uncles and auntie’s generation.

We’ve recently revamped our entire venue and we are incredibly proud of the stunning look and feel. We have worked very hard to create just the right ambience and we know you’ll love it when you book your visit. Below is a look but please do feel free to view our gallery to see more images. Our Instagram page is thriving with videos or happy families and many of them were delighted to give us wonderful reviews. When it comes to the venue look and feel, we won’t disappoint you. Our indoor marquee is truly unique.

We have ample car parking on-site and over the road for all of your guests. Our capacity is between 700 to 750 guests.

The Extras:

As well as this, we love providing the extras. The all-important magical touch that elevates the day and the entire experience. Some of these are highlighted below:

Chocolate Fountains

Sometimes seen as a staple at Asian weddings, the chocolate fountains are always immensely popular on the day. They can range from a small fountain to a 3-tier fountain which is typical but you can get larger still at 6 tiers. Whether it’s a wedding day or a Mehndi, the chocolate fountain will delight your guests and keep everyone happy.

Fruit Platters

The fruit platter is another regular feature at Asian and Muslim weddings. Whether it’s the wedding or the Mehndi itself, you may see a beautifully arranged large fruit platter. Typically, this will consist of fresh fruit and is usually made up or apples, grapes, pineapples, bananas and mangoes although you may see other fruits too.

The fruit platter is usually displayed in very elaborate ways. Often recreating shapes such as a bird (typically a swan) or an island with palm trees and fruits alongside. The decorations are beautifully crafted and are like the type of thing you might see on a luxury cruise in the midnight buffet.

Everything is to be enjoyed and therefore 100% edible. The fruit platter will always be an Asian wedding staple for its enduring popularity and affection.

Indoor Fireworks

A more recent feature in Asian and Muslim weddings is the introduction of indoor fireworks. They add some high-energy glitz and glamour to the day, and they provide for a real wow factor. These types of indoor fireworks are commonly known in the industry as “sparklers” (not to be confused with the sparklers of November the 5th fame). The image below is an example of how it would look.

A Wedding Clown

Another popular and recent introduction is hiring a clown for the day. As you can imagine, this goes down immensely well with the children who are often bored and running around wildly at Asian or Muslim weddings. The clown brings a sense of fun to the celebrations. It’s also proven incredibly popular with parents too, who just want to enjoy the day but spend all their time watching the kids.

We are happy to be able to offer this as a service upon request, should you feel like you need that extra magic to your special day.

Driving The Wedding Car into the Hall

We are unique in that our marquee is indoors. You have the option to drive your exclusive wedding car into the hall on the day, just to add that wow factor and a touch of glamour to your event. Please, call us to plan this as we need to coordinate it for you on the day.

What to do next?

All of the above items are just some of the features and services you can expect on your special day. Please, do feel free to call us to discuss additional services such as help with the planning on the day and optional extras.
