For a home event in DHA, ask the caterer whether they will cook on site or bring food ready, and how much space they need for the cooking setup and washing up. Most events here happen in house lawns and driveways for dholki, mayun and nikkah at home, as well as marquees in the phase commercial areas and along the main boulevards. A caterer needs space to cook or keep degs warm, a water source and a clear route for loading.
A few local details are worth planning around. Venues follow their own closing times and rules on the number of dishes served. Confirm both with the venue when you book. The per-head rate depends more on the menu than on the venue, though transport and setup can add to it. 1 caterer on Bandobast list DHA as an area they cover, so the offers you get come from people who already work here.
Book catering after the venue, and leave room for a tasting and one round of menu changes before the date.
Give vendors the phase and sector, not just "DHA". Travel time between phases changes setup timings.
Final guest numbers usually have to be confirmed a few days before the event.
Ask early whether the venue lets outside caterers in, since some halls only allow their own kitchen.

Yes. Marquees and banquet halls sit in the commercial areas of several phases and along the main roads. Post a request and the venues with your date free will send offers.
Each venue follows a fixed closing time. Ask for it before you set the start time, so the baraat, dinner and rukhsati all fit inside it.
It depends on the menu and the number of guests, so there's no single rate. Caterers on Bandobast show a starting price on their profile, and you can name the per-head price you want to pay in a request and see who accepts.
Many caterers offer a tasting for wedding bookings. Ask for it in your request or in chat with the caterer once they send an offer.
You pay Bandobast by bank transfer, not the vendor directly. We hold the money until your event is done and only then pay the vendor, so if something goes wrong before the day, your money hasn't left.
Caterers who work in DHA often cover these areas too.
