The farms south of Riyadh
Wedding halls and services in Al-Kharj
Al-Kharj is an agricultural governorate south of Riyadh, known for its large farms and many rest houses. Being so close to the capital, its own families hold their weddings here, and some Riyadh families also choose it for milka and henna nights on a farm, away from the city crowds.
Wedding palaces are inside the city, while rest houses and farms spread across its edges. With SaudiWedding you send one request with the occasion, services and guest count, and it reaches vendors working in Al-Kharj and Riyadh.

If the celebration is on a farm, check the road to it at night and the lighting and signs for guests coming from Riyadh.
