Duchess Place

So today fiance & I with Nyna ( my soon to be-sister-in-law) went to Duchess Place to check the venue out for a possible wedding reception. I came across this place when i was going through some random wedding blogs and i thought the place is so whimsical and English and i love their garden party decoration. The concept is so ME. So i pursuade Nally to accompany me since we haven't gotten around to discuss about his side yet.

....And the place didn't disappoint us at all. When we arrived, there are doing some sort of cleaning other people's wedding leftover. I met with Joe, whom i talked via phone before and eventhought we didn't have any appointment, he graciously answered all our questions and even show us around the compound.

Too bad i've already paid a deposit for another venue or i would have grab this place up on the spot but this place is definitely high on the list for other possible events i might be doing over the years(chewah,berangan). I would highly recommend this place as a wedding venue if you wanna break from the norm of having it in hotels or halls.

Some description of the place that i got from the internet:

General info on Duchess Place:



- 2 main part, the house itself is a double storey house which they converted the ground level to an empty living room with a nice flooring & chandelier. upper floor has 2 rooms for clients to use with a small rest/living room area. The other part is a marque tent with fully air-conditioned.


- can accommodate up to 650-700 pax


- package including food, table&chairs (they dont have chiavari chairs but they have garden chairs which looks like chiavari but cuter :) , all deco ie pelamin, high table and marque tent deco, photographer (optional), PA system, 2x50" LCD.


- 2 rooms provided for bride/family usage (and u can stay for one night there)

To add some; i was told starting next year there are gonna decrease the list from 600 pax to 300-400 pax, the price might increase as they gonna add grand piano in the list, they gonna add another fully air-conditioned see-through mini marque tent at the garden so if the bride decide to do her akad nikah in the tent at night, they can actually see the stars =) , they will put fairy lights in the garden (super love this), the packages provide wedding cakes and complimentary gifts to guests and many more.

What not to love about this place? But of course, with all this super pretty gorgeous decorations, the price is expectedly quiet pricey but if you have that extra green to make your big day super special, splurge on this place.

And now some photos:







So what do you think?
