“I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.” - Henry David Thoreau, Walden: Or, Life in the Woods
Life should be a continuous celebration; celebration of our grand events, celebration of our achievements and celebration of even our failures. After all, we have very limited time on this planet, and a lucky person will only have around 30,000 days on the planet. Out of these 15,000 days of our childhood and old age are not exactly in our control and are not fun-filled. So, if we are lucky then we only have 15000 days to celebrate. We have to celebrate all the events in these 15000 days, and so we must do the celebration in style.
There are not many events in our life which call for grand celebrations. In every 365 days we get a chance to celebrate our birthday, and most importantly we get to celebrate our wedding only once in a lifetime. Thereafter, we can celebrate our marriage anniversary every year. So, this once in a lifetime event should be celebrated in grand style so that we and our friends can remember the event for the rest of our lives.
Some of us set limitations on our selves while organising our own wedding or wedding of their children. These limitations are generally in terms of budget or lack of finances.
Sometimes we are held back because of our concern for the opinion of friends and relatives. We don’t want to be seen as “show off”.
The first pre-condition to host a grand event is to “think big.” Think that, if you have the money and time available then how you would like to celebrate your wedding? Most of the people, when given this opportunity, are not able to come up with great grand celebration ideas. Most of their ideas are second hand, drawn from the scenes of Bollywood movies or TV soaps.
It is very difficult to even dream of grand weddings for a common man. That is where our works start. We at hamaraevent.com can assist and suggest some ways of hosting grand events.
Here are some unique ideas worth considering while planning for a grand wedding are as follows:-
• Wedding in five-star hotels like the JW Marriot or Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai.
• Booking of complete movie theatre like the IMAX, Wadala for a wedding or to host an event.
• Wedding on a boat or yacht near the Gateway of India.
• Wedding in the revolving restaurant.
• Ferrying the guests for the wedding in a Horse Carriage Victoria or in the open Double Decker buses.
· • Wedding on the roof-top of a tall building with the complete view of Mumbai.
· • Wedding on a movie set or on the set of a TV Serial.
1) Taj Mahal Palace – Banquet Hall
A common man who does not frequently visit the five-star hotels generally thinks that holding a party or a wedding in a five-star hotel is going to cost him a bomb. They feel that the prices of these hotels are very expensive and beyond the reach of a person from the middle class. This is far from the truth.
When all the costs of renting of banquets hall, decorations, lighting, catering, music and other expenses are taken into account, then the difference between the costs is not very high. HamaraEvent can help in booking the wedding venues in five-star hotels at reasonable rates. There will certainly be a difference between the cost of a wedding in a five-star hotel and other hotels, but the difference will not work out to be prohibitive, and anyone can undertake the expenditure once in a lifetime.
2) Imax Adlabs
The ticket cost of IMAX movie theatre is very high. A normal person thinks twice before planning to watch a movie in the theatre. In case we invite our wedding guests to a movie in the IMAX theatre after the wedding on the stage of the theatre, they are surely going to be surprised and thrilled.
HamaraEvent can help you plan such a wedding within a reasonable price range. Showing a movie on the life of the bride & groom before or after the wedding will be like icing on the cake. Friends, trust me it is possible.
3) Yatch
Yes, friends you got me right, it is possible and within your reach to host your wedding on a yacht. Owning a yacht is practically not possible for a common man. People like Mr. Vijay Mallya can only own it.
What if we can’t own it! But we can at least host a wedding on yacht. HamaraEvent can help you make your this dream come true and that too within your budget.
4) Revolving Restaurant
Not many people have heard of the revolving restaurant in Mumbai. Very few of those people, who have heard of the restaurants, have been to these exotic eating place. Hosting an event or a wedding will give a lifetime memory to your guests.
This will surely add to the novelty factor of the event and will certainly motivate a maximum number of your guests to attend the event/wedding.
5) Double Decker Bus
Transportation of guests is a nightmare in Mumbai. So, here we are thinking of transporting the complete wedding party in an open top Double Decker BEST bus like the way we have seen the Indian team partying after winning the World Cup. The guests willalso be able to see the sights of Mumbai while on their way to the wedding venue.
In case the wedding venue is in South Mumbai, we can even think of transporting all the guests in horse carriages Victoria. This will certainly be a novel experience for all your guests.
6) Tall Building
Mumbai is a city of high-rises but very few Mumbaikars get a chance to see the city from the rooftop of tall buildings spread around the city. Celebrating the wedding on top of a tall building is really an out of world idea. All guests to the wedding will find it to be a different experience.
7) Serial Sets
Just imagine if your wedding is being hosted on the set of “Jhalak Dikhla Ja” or “Comedy Night with Kapil”. It will be a great attraction for all the guests. The idea gets even more interesting if the wedding venue set is customized for your wedding as per your choice.
Sounds exciting! Isn’t it! It is not a fantasy. Yes HamaraEvent can make it possible for you within your budget.
So here we can see that only sky is the limit for venues for celebration of our grand events. If you can dream of it, it can be made possible. Even if you can’t dream of it alone, then someone will not only help you to dream about it, but will also help you frame and plan your dream.
