Earl’s Regency Hotel has introduced Noor Weddings, a new wedding offering designed for elegant and memorable celebrations, launched in collaboration with Amana Bank.
The initiative brings the Noor Weddings experience to Amana Bank cardholders, who will enjoy an exclusive 15% discount on package rates for qualifying bookings, adding greater value for couples planning their special day.
Located in the heart of Kandy, Earl’s Regency has built a strong reputation for hosting grand and refined weddings, featuring panoramic hill-country views, landscaped gardens, picturesque photography locations, and elegant interiors. The Noor Weddings concept is designed to fully utilise these scenic spaces, accommodating everything from intimate pre-wedding gatherings to large-scale receptions.
The collaboration with Amana Bank further enhances the offering by providing added accessibility and benefits to customers, supported by the bank’s extensive network across Sri Lanka, particularly in the Central Province, including branches in Kandy, Katugastota, Gampola, and Matale.
With Noor Weddings, Earl’s Regency aims to deliver a distinctive wedding experience defined by its setting, styling, and service—now complemented by exclusive privileges for Amana Bank cardholders.
