Which wedding planner and decorator works at Conrad Bengaluru?
Panigrahana Weddings plans and decorates weddings at Conrad Bengaluru, with a published wedding of 320 guests in October 2024 for a family from Bangalore, and as of 31 October 2026 planning starts at ₹2 lakh a day for two events and decor at ₹5 lakh, both plus GST.
Plan the guest list on Hilton's chart, not a listing headline: the Grand Ballroom seats 400 at banquet rounds and takes 1,200 at a reception, so a larger seated dinner needs a buffet-and-lounge layout. Then tie the plate rate to the room-night commitment in one written proposal, and get the rigging points and load-in window before design starts. Our published wedding here shows the finished work, so ask to see it beside the plan for yours. Our Bangalore team designs and builds the decor itself, with no team travel charge.

About Conrad Bengaluru
Conrad Bengaluru stands at 25/3 Kensington Road in Ulsoor, above the lake, and opened in 2018 under Hilton's Conrad brand. Its Grand Ballroom is the room families come to see: 7,555 sq ft under a 20 ft ceiling, 1,200 at a reception and 400 at banquet rounds on Hilton's events chart, with a 3,000 sq ft pre-function foyer that takes the receiving line off the dining floor.
The second reason couples choose it is the pool deck: landscaped, raised above the street and looking towards Ulsoor Lake, with the Tiamo poolside space for 80 seated on the WedMeGood listing. The ballroom divides into three sections and the Junior Ballroom takes 150 seated, so a mehendi, a sangeet and a reception each get a room of the right size.
Terms are what you expect from a Conrad: catering is in-house from ₹3,000 vegetarian and ₹4,500 non-vegetarian a plate, the bar is the hotel's, and 285 rooms sit above the ballroom. Outside decorators and outside DJs are both permitted, so the design and the sound are yours to choose.

Designed, not just planned
How we would design a wedding at Conrad Bengaluru
Two spaces, two opposite briefs. The Grand Ballroom is a modern luxury-hotel room: a crystal-detailed ceiling that takes colour beautifully, a neutral carpet and real height. The ceiling is the asset — the gallery shows it washed pink and it holds a saturated state cleanly, which means a colour-led scheme here costs less than it would in a room with a fixed warm cove. Get the rigging capacity and the point loads early, because a 1,200-guest room wants a ceiling intervention over the guest zone rather than only a stage build, and a hotel's rated points decide whether that is hung or trussed. The private foyer should be designed as part of the scheme rather than left as a corridor; at this guest count the foyer is where the first ten minutes of the wedding happen. Tiamo is the opposite problem: an elevated, landscaped deck with water, planting and a view. Build almost nothing there. A light open mandap over the water, ground-level lighting in the planting, and the city and the lake left visible — anything that blocks the view removes the reason the space is worth the money. One practical note for both: this is a lakeside site in Central Bangalore, so evening insects around uplighting on the deck are a real consideration in the monsoon months and should be planned for.
Which function goes where
| Haldi | The Junior Ballroom, 150 seated, or one ballroom section; agree floor protection and clean-up for turmeric in advance. |
|---|---|
| Mehendi | Tiamo by the pool for 80 seated in daylight, or the Junior Ballroom for a larger group. |
| Sangeet | The Grand Ballroom or two of its sections, with an outside DJ if you prefer; the late set stays indoors. |
| Wedding ceremony | The Grand Ballroom for a seated muhurtham, 400 at banquet rounds, or Tiamo for an intimate ceremony by the water. |
| Reception | The Grand Ballroom, 1,200 at a reception, with the 3,000 sq ft foyer for the receiving line. |
Season and weather
The ballroom removes weather risk, so the wedding runs in any month; the pool deck is at its best from November to February, the cool, dry stretch, and those muhurtham weekends book 9 to 12 months out. 57% of the Bangalore weddings booked with Panigrahana in 2026 fall between November and February (booking records checked 24 October 2026).
Arrivals, access and logistics
Kensington Road at Ulsoor is central Bangalore, minutes from MG Road and Indiranagar, with Trinity and Halasuru metro stations on this side of the city. Kempegowda International Airport is 38 km away on Hilton's location page, about 45 minutes outside the evening peak. With 285 rooms the travelling block sits in the building; Ulsoor's streets are tight, so schedule vendor load-in and guest arrivals around the evening peak.
Conrad Bengaluru policies

No outside-vendor fee: Panigrahana's booking records show none at five-star hotels other than Royal Orchid (October 2026). Get the ballroom's rigging points, floor-protection rules and load-in hours in writing before design starts. |
|---|---|
| Catering | In-house catering only (WedMeGood listing, checked 11 September 2026). |

Where should the sangeet go at Conrad Bengaluru?
The Grand Ballroom suits a sangeet at Conrad Bengaluru, at 7,555 sq ft under a 20 ft ceiling with 1,200 at a reception on Hilton's events chart checked 27 October 2026, and its three sections of about 220 to 250 guests each on The Vendry let a smaller sangeet use one or two, with the late set kept indoors past the 10:30 pm stop on the Tiamo pool deck.
Use the 3,000 sq ft foyer for the bar and the photo wall so the ballroom floor stays clear for performances. If the sangeet and the wedding fall on consecutive days, ask whether one section can be built for the sangeet while another is dressed for the next function, which saves a full overnight turnaround. The hotel offers its own DJ and takes an outside one, so the choice is yours. For a mehendi earlier the same day, Tiamo by the pool seats 80 in daylight.

Before you book
Planning notes for Conrad Bengaluru
Is Conrad Bengaluru the right venue for your wedding?
| Right for you if | Families of 300 to 1,200 guests who want a large city-centre ballroom with its own foyer, 285 rooms upstairs and the option of a small ceremony by the pool with the lake behind; monsoon dates, since the ballroom carries the whole programme. |
|---|---|
| Look elsewhere if | A ceremony on a wide lawn suits a garden estate such as Taj West End; families who want their own caterer will prefer a standalone venue, since catering here is in-house. |
| Planner tip | Plan the guest list on Hilton's chart, not a listing headline: the Grand Ballroom seats 400 at banquet rounds and takes 1,200 at a reception, so a larger seated dinner needs a buffet-and-lounge layout. Then tie the plate rate to the room-night commitment in one written proposal, and get the rigging points and load-in window before design starts. |

Planning a wedding at Conrad Bengaluru from abroad
At Conrad Bengaluru, the vegetarian plate rate is ₹3,000 (WedMeGood listing, checked 11 September 2026), so food for one 150-guest function is ₹4.5 lakh before taxes: about US$4,690 or £3,550 at the 26 Sep 2026 rate; contracts are in INR. Conrad Bengaluru is about 38 km from Kempegowda International Airport (BLR), around 45 minutes by road.
Kempegowda International Airport is 38 km away on Hilton's location page, about 45 minutes outside the evening peak. The 285 rooms sit above the ballroom, so overseas family land once and stay where the functions are; hold their rooms first. November to February is the cool, dry window for the pool deck. A remote walkthrough covers the Grand Ballroom and its foyer, the Junior Ballroom, the pool deck and the room categories.
| Vegetarian plate | ₹3,000 ≈ US$31 · £24 · AED 110 · C$44 · A$45 |
|---|---|
| Food for 150, one function | ₹4,50,000 (₹4.5 lakh) before taxes ≈ US$4,690 · £3,550 · AED 17,200 · C$6,640 · A$6,680 |
| Rooms | 285 rooms ≈ 570 guests at two a room. A 150-guest block at two a room needs 75 rooms, which fits on site if the venue releases that many rooms for your dates. |
| Season | The ballroom removes weather risk, so the wedding runs in any month; the pool deck is at its best from November to February, the cool, dry stretch, and those muhurtham weekends book 9 to 12 months out. |
Converted at the 26 Sep 2026 rate; contracts are in INR (US$1 = ₹95.91, £1 = ₹126.86, AED 1 = ₹26.12, C$1 = ₹67.74, A$1 = ₹67.36; mid-market rates from open.er-api.com). Rates: WedMeGood listing, checked 11 September 2026. Room and airport figures come from the venue facts on this page.

What families usually ask about Conrad Bengaluru
Parents usually ask where the mandap goes, what the kitchen cooks and how far elders walk. The Grand Ballroom takes the mandap and a seated muhurtham for 400 at banquet rounds, and Tiamo by the pool suits a small ceremony; agree the havan fire in writing. Catering is the hotel's own, so set the traditional menu at a tasting. Rooms and ballroom share one building, so grandparents can rest upstairs between functions.
What time does the music stop at Conrad Bengaluru?
Bengaluru closes amplified outdoor sound at 10 pm under the noise rules; in practice, outdoor music on the lawns and terraces has a hard stop at 10:30 pm, as at every Bangalore venue we work at (Panigrahana booking records, October 2026), and ballrooms run later under the hotel's rules. Confirm in writing.

Outdoors, music has a hard stop at 10:30 pm, as at every Bangalore venue we work at (Panigrahana booking records, October 2026); Bengaluru's noise rules set 10 pm. The ballroom runs later under the hotel's licence, so move the late part of a pool-deck evening indoors.

Conrad Bengaluru is on Kensington Road in Someshwarpura, Ulsoor, Bengaluru 560008, beside Ulsoor Lake in central Bangalore, and it is not on the Outer Ring Road or in Whitefield. MG Road and Indiranagar are close by, and Trinity and Halasuru are the metro stations on that side of the city. For guests flying in, send airport cars in batches and keep them clear of the evening peak on the way into the city.
What is the wedding cost per plate at Conrad Bengaluru?
Conrad Bengaluru's WedMeGood listing showed ₹3,000 per vegetarian plate and ₹4,500 non-vegetarian, taxes extra, on 11 September 2026, and no hall rental is published. One vegetarian meal for 300 guests at that rate comes to ₹9 lakh before tax. Ask the hotel how many plates each function must reach, since a shortfall on that minimum is negotiable, and taste two menu tiers before you sign.
Does Conrad Bengaluru have wedding packages, and what do they cost?
Conrad Bengaluru does not publish a wedding package in the sources we hold, so the hotel builds a proposal from a per-plate menu, a room block and the event spaces. Its WedMeGood listing showed ₹3,000 vegetarian and ₹4,500 non-vegetarian per plate, taxes extra, rooms at ₹21,500 and in-house decor from ₹75,000 on 11 September 2026. Ask what the plate includes, the minimum per space and whether your own decorator changes the price.
What is the contact number of Conrad Bengaluru for a wedding booking?
Conrad Bengaluru takes wedding enquiries through its events team, and the hotel's current number and email are on its official page on hilton.com. When you call, ask for the minimum guarantee on the Grand Ballroom for your date, the room-block rate and the rules for an outside decorator. If you want a planner to compare options, WhatsApp Panigrahana on +91 77669 40021; we reply within 24 hours.
Is Conrad Bengaluru a 5-star hotel, and is it good for a wedding?
Conrad Bengaluru belongs to Hilton's Conrad Hotels & Resorts brand, and Hilton's page did not state a star grade when we checked on 20 September 2026. For a wedding it suits a large city reception: the Grand Ballroom is listed at 900 seated, there are 285 rooms on site, and outside decorators and DJs are permitted. Confirm the seated figure for your layout, since the hotel's own text gives 675.
Can we hold a haldi, mehendi or engagement at Conrad Bengaluru?
Yes, Conrad Bengaluru has a room for each function: the Junior Ballroom for about 100 seated suits a haldi or an engagement, Tiamo by the pool takes 80 seated for a daytime mehendi, and the Grand Ballroom holds the sangeet and the reception. For a haldi, agree floor protection and clean-up with the banquet team first. Outdoor amplified music stops at 10 pm under the CPCB noise rules, so a late party belongs in the ballroom.
Conrad Bengaluru or JW Marriott Bengaluru: which is better for a wedding?
Conrad Bengaluru suits a large indoor reception, with a Grand Ballroom listed at 900 seated and 285 rooms, while JW Marriott Hotel Bengaluru suits an outdoor ceremony, with the JW Lawns for 1,500 at a reception and 281 rooms. Both allow outside decorators and keep catering in-house. Conrad is in Ulsoor by the lake; JW Marriott is on Vittal Mallya Road. Compare the minimum guarantee each hotel quotes for your date.
