The reception is where guests judge the wedding
The reception is the grand finale - where every guest, every elder, and every photograph matters. We design menus for flow: welcome drinks and chaat, main banquet arcs, live stations that never queue forever, and dessert theatre that photographs as well as it tastes.
Typical gala planning starts at 500 guests. For smaller receptions we adapt the format; for larger ones we add floor captains and station sequencing so the room feels alive, not chaotic.
Signature touches
A Narayanam gala is remembered for service as much as flavour. We mark tables, assign servers, and choreograph courses so you are never hunting for staff mid-speech.
- Marked one-to-one table service
- Live tandoor, pasta, Oriental grills, and wood-fired pizza where briefed
- Dessert theatre and paan finales
- Floor captains who resolve issues before you notice them
- Menu built from 1,400+ dishes with tasting before approval

Answers
Frequently asked questions
What guest count do you recommend for a gala reception?
Gala dinners are typically planned from 500 guests upward. We can adapt for smaller receptions - minimums depend on menu and service style.
Can we combine Indian and global live stations?
Yes. Carnival-style global fusion stations sit alongside traditional courses. We sequence stations so queues stay short and elders still find familiar comfort nearby.
Are you strictly vegetarian?
Yes - 100% pure vegetarian, prepared in dedicated kitchens with zero cross-contamination. Purity is part of our spiritual foundation and of every celebration we serve.
What is the minimum guest count?
Most functions start from 200 guests. Gala dinners and grand receptions typically begin at 500 guests. We will confirm minimums per function when we design your menu.
