Former boxing champion Amir Khan’s opulent wedding venue, The Balmayna, is ready to dazzle guests with its Dubai-inspired grandeur while being situated right next to a humble car wash in Bolton. The 37-year-old athlete has invested a staggering \u00a311.5 million in this project, pouring his heart and soul into creating a setting that radiates luxury and elegance.<\/p>\n
Despite the initial astonishment over its unconventional location, The Balmayna is set to open its doors in March 2024, showcasing an array of lavish features that will transport guests to a world of indulgence. The venue’s name, derived from the Arabic term for “Enamelled,” further adds to its allure.<\/p>\n
As one approaches The Balmayna, they will be greeted by an enchanting sight, replete with palm trees, a captivating water feature, and a magnificent waterfall that cascades within its walls. Inside, state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems will immerse wedding-goers in an atmosphere of pure enchantment.<\/p>\n
The venue is a place many would dream of hosting their wedding but some locals are sceptical.<\/p>\n
\u2018The design is about 10 years out of date,\u2019 Bolton resident Rahila said<\/p>\n
However, others were more positive with one stating: \u2018It\u2019s like a building from Dubai,\u2019 and local Fawzia Wahid adding: \u2018Wow congratulations finally it is open.\u2019<\/p>\n
Amir expressed his relief at finally being able to cut the ribbon on his pride and joy, telling The Bolton News earlier this month: \u2018I am really looking forward for it to finish now, obviously it\u2019s coming to an end and there were some complications back in the day where we had to put a hold on a lot of work.<\/p>\n
\u2018But look, my heart is in the right place and God is going to make it work for me.\u2019<\/p>\n
Amir started this project back in 2015 and revealed in a previous episode of Meet The Khans: Big In Bolton, that the budget had soared significantly from \u00a33.2m to \u00a311.5m.<\/p>\n
\u2018My dad is involved to help me and make sure it is going okay and I had to take a step forward and make things come through,\u2019 he said<\/p>\n
