Designed, not just planned
How we would design a wedding at Hotel Merlin International
Planning the wedding decor at Hotel Merlin International
The listing states “Decorators from panel only”. Start with that approval before choosing a mandap or commissioning fabrication. Our design brief brings together the ceremony, reception, guest movement and the practical setup schedule.
The function layout
The listed settings are Outdoor. Ask for measured plans of your chosen spaces. Mark the mandap, stage, dining, guest entrance and service access on the same drawing so that every function has a workable flow.
A weather-ready design
For an outdoor function at Hotel Merlin International, agree the covered backup and its capacity before finalising the design. Confirm whether that space is reserved exclusively, when the weather decision is made and what moving the setup costs.
Production and permissions
Confirm the permitted installation and dismantling hours, power supply, vendor entry procedure, storage and waste removal. Ceremonial fire, special effects and sound each need the property’s written approval where relevant.
Before you book
Planning notes for Hotel Merlin International
Rooms, arrivals and the guest experience
Hotel Merlin International lists 10 rooms. For a simple planning exercise, that would mean space for 20 people at two per room if every room were available and double occupancy applied. The actual room block, occupancy and room categories need confirmation.
Build a rooming list alongside flight arrivals and function timings. Keep early check-ins, accessible rooms, children’s arrangements and vendor accommodation visible in the brief so they do not become last-minute additions.
