🧠 Pro Tips & FAQs

Your Airport Venue Questions Answered

JW Marriott Aerocity is the closest premium venue at approximately 3 km from Terminal 3, offering a 6-8 minute drive. For estate-style venues with lawns and on-site rooms, Tivoli Bijwasan at 13 km (15-18 minutes) provides the best airport proximity combined with residential wedding amenities.

Tivoli Bijwasan offers the ideal combination with 5 acres of landscaped lawns, three indoor halls (Marque, Pavilion, poolside), and 43 well-appointed guest rooms. Located 13 km from IGI Terminal 3, it provides destination-style privacy with seamless airport connectivity for outstation guests.

Per-plate costs vary by venue tier: Aerocity 5-star hotels (₹4,500-₹6,000), Estate venues like Tivoli Bijwasan (₹2,800-₹4,500), Dwarka 4-star hotels (₹2,200-₹3,200), and NH-8 farmhouses (₹2,500-₹3,800). Always request itemized quotations to understand what's included in the base rate.

For intimate gatherings near the airport, consider Dwarka boutique hotels (Lemon Tree, Aloft), Mahipalpur properties (Red Fox, Ibis), or Tivoli Bijwasan's poolside deck. These spaces offer personalized settings without minimum guest count penalties, with per-plate costs ranging from ₹2,000-₹3,500.

Drone photography near IGI Airport requires DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) approval with 15 days advance notice due to no-fly zone restrictions. Venues like Tivoli Bijwasan can assist with the application process. Closed lawns have higher approval rates than open farmhouses. Always verify permissions before booking drone services.

Delhi Pollution Control Board mandates outdoor music must cease by 10 PM in residential zones. Aerocity and Mahipalpur commercial areas may have extended permissions until 11 PM. Indoor ballroom events can continue past curfew hours. Overtime charges for extended celebrations range from ₹50K-₹2 lakh per hour.

Select Bijwasan and Dwarka properties accommodate pets with prior approval. Tivoli Bijwasan allows well-behaved pets in outdoor lawn areas with handler supervision. Most Aerocity hotels have strict no-pet policies. Always confirm pet policies during venue tours and include provisions in your contract.

For peak wedding season (November-March), book 9-12 months in advance, especially for venues like Tivoli Bijwasan and JW Marriott Aerocity which fill quickly. For off-peak months (May-August), 4-6 months suffices. Airport zone venues have higher turnover due to corporate events, so flexibility on dates can yield last-minute deals at 20-30% discounts.
