T


he InterContinental
Chennai Mahabalipuram
Resort is set against the
azure waters of Bay of Bengal,
making it one of the most
sought-after destinations in
the country to host luxe beach
weddings. With convenient
event spaces—both indoor and
outdoor (on the beach)—and
an in-house team of meticulous
wedding planners, the hotel puts
together a regal show, the kind
that will be remembered for a
long time to come.
Located around 50
kilometres from the UNESCO

World Heritage Site of
Mahabalipuram, the hotel
is among the few properties
that ofer a full buyout option
for destination weddings.
Choose between the indoor
Samaya Banquet Hall, and
outdoor Sama 1 Beach Lawns
and InterContinental Beach
Gardens to host the various
pre-wedding functions.
While the indoor space is
perfect for themed dinners,
the beachfront venues make
for intimate setting for close-
knit ceremonies and cocktail
parties.

ADVANTAGE INTERCON
The various big and small
event spaces make sure each
of the pre- and post-wedding
ceremonies is set up with
diferent settings and moods.
For instance, the Sama Lawns
and Samaya Banquet Hall are
good options to host a
welcome dinner, the private
pool area for henna ceremony,
the InterContinental
Performance Platform for
small religious ceremonies,
and the beach gardens for
a traditional Indian wedding
involving fireworks.

THOUGHTFUL TREATS
At InterContinental Chennai
Mahabalipuram, allow a team
of experienced chefs to put
together a global gastronomic
journey for your guests, or select
from local flavours to curate a
personalised menu. A visiting
chef comes recommended in
case of a full resort buyout. The
resort enjoys a sweet spot on the
East Coast Road, therefore, the
guests can easily access heritage
sites, such as the Mahabalipuram
Shore Temple, or go on a long
drive to Puducherry on an
extended holiday.
