Aangan Courtyard

Aangan: An Intimate Courtyard for Exclusive Gatherings

Aangan, which translates to 'courtyard', is a beautifully designed outdoor venue at Saj on the Mountain that embodies intimacy and charm. This 2,000 square foot space is perfectly suited for gatherings that require a more personal and private atmosphere than a large, open lawn. With a capacity for up to 150 guests, Aangan is the ideal choice for pre-wedding ceremonies such as Mehendi and Haldi, where interaction and a cozy environment are key. It is also an excellent setting for elegant cocktail receptions, milestone birthday celebrations, anniversary parties, and corporate welcome dinners. The courtyard's design provides a sense of enclosure and exclusivity, allowing your guests to mingle and celebrate in a space that feels like their own private garden. The surrounding architecture of the resort adds to its character, creating a picturesque backdrop for photography and creating lasting memories.

Designing Your Event in a Charming Setting

The layout of Aangan offers a versatile foundation for creative event design. Planners can utilize the space to create distinct zones for seating, a small performance area, a bar, and food stations. The courtyard's ambiance can be transformed with creative lighting, from festive fairy lights and lanterns for a wedding function to sophisticated uplighting for a formal cocktail evening. The space is well-suited for both standing receptions and seated arrangements, offering flexibility based on the event's nature. The resort's in-house decor and catering teams can work with planners to curate a theme that complements the venue's inherent charm. Imagine a vibrant Mehendi ceremony with colourful drapes, low seating, and live music, or a chic evening soiree with high-top tables, elegant floral arrangements, and passed hors d'oeuvres. Aangan provides the perfect canvas for such detailed and atmospheric event setups.

The Perfect Blend of Outdoor Feel and Privacy

What sets Aangan apart is its unique ability to offer an open-air experience while maintaining a high degree of privacy. Unlike a vast lawn, the courtyard setting naturally contains the energy of the event, fostering a warm and engaging atmosphere. This makes it particularly effective for events where guest interaction is a primary goal. Planners can be confident that their event will feel exclusive and protected from the foot traffic of the wider resort area. As with any outdoor venue, it is wise to consider the weather, but the contained nature of the courtyard may offer some protection from wind and make it easier to implement contingency plans like partial covering if needed. For planners seeking a beautiful, manageable, and private outdoor space for a mid-sized group, Aangan at Saj on the Mountain presents a compelling and delightful option.
