Match entertainment to the function

Mehndi usually needs dhol, dance tracks and a lively sound setup, while qawwali nights need a different stage, seating and audio plan. Baraat and walima entertainment may be more formal, depending on family preference.

Confirm sound and venue permissions

Ask about speaker setup, microphones, generator load, sound limits, setup time and whether the venue allows live music. Entertainment vendors should coordinate with decorators and photographers so the stage remains clear.

Use one brief for all entertainment vendors

Share your date, venue, event type, audience size, timing and music preference through Jashn so DJs, dhol players, qawwali groups and live singers can quote accurately.
