About TTD Kalyana Vedika
The Kalyana Vedika is a dedicated ceremony hall maintained by Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams on Papavinasanam Road in Tirumala. TTD has conducted dignified Hindu weddings here for thousands of couples, and the same setting is used by families for other auspicious life-event functions. Alongside the Tirumala venue, TTD also operates a network of Kalyana Mandapams in Tirupati and across many towns and cities, so a family does not always have to climb the hills to find a TTD hall for a function.
Sri Vyasa Pooja is an information guide — we do not book the venue or take payments; book only through TTD’s official channel.
Functions Conducted
Families typically use a TTD Kalyana Vedika or Mandapam for weddings and for the traditional milestone ceremonies that mark long life and a blessed marriage:
- Shashtiabdapoorthi — celebrated when a couple completes 60 years, marking the 60th wedding milestone with a ritual re-affirmation of the marriage.
- Ugraratha Shanti — observed around the 70th year for the well-being and longevity of the celebrant.
- Sahasra Chandra Darshana / Sadabhishekam — the 80th-year ceremony, honouring a life that has seen a thousand full moons.
- Weddings, Upanayanam and allied samskaras — many halls also host engagements, sacred-thread ceremonies and similar family functions.
The exact rituals are guided by a purohit. For weddings at the Tirumala Kalyana Vedika, TTD has traditionally allotted a priest, and through its Purohita Sangham the temple body conducts various traditional ceremonies at prescribed nominal charges. Because the list of ceremonies and the arrangements can be revised, confirm on official TTD portal or with TTD before fixing a date.

Slots are limited and popular dates fill up months ahead, so apply in advance once the booking window opens for your chosen date. Booking rules and the advance window can change, so confirm on official TTD portal.
Charges and What’s Included
TTD keeps these halls affordable. The hall rent is nominal — often only a few hundred rupees per day — while a separate service charge depends on the location type. As an indication of the published structure:
| Item | Indicative amount |
| Hall rent (per day) | around ₹200 |
| Service charge — Corporation | up to ₹5,000 |
| Service charge — District HQ | around ₹4,000 |

| Service charge — smaller places | ₹500 to ₹1,500 |
A refundable security deposit is usually collected, and the family pays for extras such as electricity used. Most halls provide the basic setting — a stage, seating, dressing room, kitchen space and restrooms — and a purohit can be arranged for the rituals. Amenities differ from one hall to another, and every figure above is indicative only and revised from time to time, so confirm on official TTD portal for the exact current cost and inclusions at your chosen venue.
Location and How to Reach
The Tirumala Kalyana Vedika sits on Papavinasanam Road in Tirumala, near the temple town’s pilgrim facilities. Tirupati city at the foot of the hills is well connected by rail and road and by the regional airport, and TTD and APSRTC buses run regularly up the ghat road to Tirumala.
