Common Questions

FAQ

Is there parking at both venues?

Yes! Rhythm Lonavala has a large parking area for guests. Taj Lands End offers valet parking at the hotel driveway. We recommend valet at the Taj to avoid the narrow Bandstand lanes.

Can I take an auto-rickshaw to Taj Lands End?

Absolutely — auto-rickshaws go up to Bandstand. Ask for "Taj Lands End" or "Bandstand." Uber and Ola are both reliable in Bandra. We recommend booking a cab in advance for the return late at night.

How do I book the wedding shuttle?

Indicate your shuttle preference in the RSVP form. Shuttles depart from Andheri West (4:00 PM) and Bandra (4:15 PM) on Dec 11 for Lonavala. Return coaches on Dec 11 night (1:15 AM) and Dec 12 morning (7:00 AM). Confirmation email with exact pickup point sent closer to the date.

What if I'm travelling from outside India?

We have guests flying in from the UK, USA, UAE and Australia! Mumbai's CSIA is very well connected internationally. We recommend arriving by Dec 9–10 to recover from jet lag and enjoy the city before the celebrations begin. Email us and we'll help co-ordinate airport transfers.

Are children welcome at both events?

Children are warmly welcome at the wedding on Dec 12. The cocktail on Dec 11 is recommended for adults only (18+) given the late timing. We will have a kids' corner at the wedding with supervised activities and a children's menu. Please mention in your RSVP if you're bringing little ones.

Will there be vegetarian / Jain food?

Yes, extensively! Both events will have a full vegetarian spread, Jain options and separate serving sections. Please mention any specific dietary needs in your RSVP so we can ensure the caterers are prepared.
