However, many of you must not be aware of the procedure to conduct weddings in hotels, resorts, banquet halls, gardens, etc. You may have a lot of questions surging through your mind, such as – Do we need to seek the government’s permission before conducting the wedding at any venue? If yes, then whom should we consult or inform about it? How many people are allowed at the wedding? What about the other people included in the wedding, such as caterers, orchestra, band players, etc.; are they included in the number of people allowed?
