Sankranthi Kalyana Mandir

Sankranthi Kalyana Mandir is situated in Banashankari 2nd Stage, Bangalore. We are near the Monotype area, which is a well-known landmark for people in this part of South Bangalore. This is a wedding hall, so it is a big, open space. It is not one of those new, glass-fronted luxury halls you see in other parts of the city. It is a more traditional building with a large hall and a dining area downstairs. We have hosted many family events here over the years. The walls have some marks from moving furniture around, and the stage is a bit old-fashioned. We have high ceilings and a lot of fans to keep the air moving during large gatherings. Parking around the building is always a bit of a puzzle when there is a big wedding, but the guests usually manage. We do not provide catering ourselves, just the space and the basic facilities. The kitchen in the back is quite large and can handle big pots. We spend a lot of time cleaning up after functions are over. The neighborhood is mostly residential, so we have to be careful about the noise levels late at night. It is a busy place during the wedding season but can be very quiet for weeks in between. We just manage the bookings and make sure the lights and water are working for whoever has rented the hall for their big day. (249 words)
