    Hi. I am helping plan my sister’s wedding and we are looking at PVR as one of our preferred destinations. Need some assistance on what are the preferred wedding venue options for a South Asian wedding. We will have multiple events over couple days and are looking at approximately 350-450 guests. Looking forward to hearing the options!
