About The Artiste Kochi, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

The Artiste Kochi, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel, is a 32-room Marriott hotel inside the Forum Mall complex at Maradu. Its wedding space is the poolside, listed on WedMeGood for 100 seated or 150 standing, with plates at ₹1,800 vegetarian and ₹2,000 non-vegetarian, taxes extra. Outside decorators are permitted.

This is a hotel for the smaller functions of a Kochi wedding: a poolside sangeet or cocktail evening, an engagement dinner in the Canvas room (30 at a reception, per Marriott), and rooms for the close family. A 300-guest wedding day needs a bigger room elsewhere in the city.

At a hotel this size, Panigrahana's design work is the evening. We would light the pool deck, lay it out as a bar and lounge rather than rows of chairs, and plan the guest route so a private party stays private inside a busy mall complex.

Designed, not just planned

How we would design a wedding at The Artiste Kochi, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

The rooms pair cane, brass and mural-style wall prints with modern lines, and a poolside party should pick up that palette: brass lanterns, cane furniture, warm light and low florals so the water stays visible. Canvas is small at 48 sq m; one well-dressed table does more there than a stage.

Which function goes where

Mehendi	Canvas at The Artiste for up to 30.
Sangeet	The poolside with a DJ, 150 standing, finishing by 10 pm.
Wedding ceremony	For a list of about 100, a poolside ceremony, only once the hotel confirms a covered fallback in writing; Canvas holds 30.
Reception	A poolside cocktail reception for up to 150 standing.

Season and weather

November to February is the dry window for a poolside evening in Kochi; from June to September, plan on rain and keep the poolside for the dry months.

Arrivals, access and logistics

Guests flying in land at Cochin International Airport and drive to Maradu. The listing says parking is sufficient; for a poolside party of 150, confirm valet and the guest route from the car park to the pool.

The Artiste Kochi, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel policies

Outside decorators	Outside decorators permitted (WedMeGood listing)

Planning notes for The Artiste Kochi, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

Is The Artiste Kochi, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel the right venue for your wedding?

Right for you if	Kochi couples planning the cocktail, sangeet or engagement for up to 150, with close family staying in a Marriott hotel beside Forum Mall.
Look elsewhere if	A main wedding day for more than 150, or anyone who needs an indoor hall. Vivanta Ernakulam, Kochi Marriott and Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty have large indoor rooms.
Planner tip	Ask what the rain plan is for the poolside before you sign, because the only indoor event room seats 25 at a banquet. If the hotel has no covered option for your numbers, hold monsoon-month functions somewhere else.
