Hyderabad is witnessing a significant surge in advance bookings for marriage and banquet halls as the city gears up for a flurry of weddings in February and March, thanks to a series of auspicious days according to Hindu traditions.
Many families are rushing to secure venues for weddings, as the 10 auspicious days in February – February 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 20, 22, and 23 – have led to an increase in demand for marriage halls and related services. These auspicious days are believed to be ideal for weddings, prompting couples and their families to finalize their big day. As a result, marriage venues are filling up quickly, and the bookings are now pouring in from both locals and families from nearby areas.
Apart from the wedding venues, there is also a noticeable uptick in customers at jewelry showrooms, malls, and beauty parlors, as people prepare for the big celebrations. The demand for wedding-related services, including event managers, photographers, and videographers, has also surged, with families even hiring professionals from other states to accommodate the rush.

However, the increased demand is not without its challenges. Caterers have raised their per-plate prices due to a combination of factors, including the rise in the cost of vegetables and essential commodities, as well as the heightened demand. Many families are opting for customized packages to manage the rising expenses while still making their weddings memorable.
Rentals for marriage and banquet halls in Hyderabad have also seen a sharp increase. With a significant number of weddings lined up, venue owners are capitalizing on the surge in demand, leading to higher booking prices. The rentals are expected to remain high, as the city continues to experience a wedding boom during the peak season.
Looking ahead, March also promises a busy wedding season, with eight more auspicious days – March 1, 2, 6, 7, 12, 14, 15, and 16 – leading to further bookings for venues and related services. As the demand continues to grow, wedding planners and service providers are preparing for a busy couple of months.
Gold prices, which are often a key part of wedding expenses, are also expected to rise as the wedding season progresses. The price of 24-carat gold in Hyderabad has already surpassed Rs 86,000, adding to the financial considerations for families planning weddings in the coming weeks.
The combination of cultural significance and the increasing demand for wedding-related services in Hyderabad underscores the city’s position as a major wedding hub, with businesses and families alike gearing up for a season of celebration, even as costs rise across the board.
