Ask any Muslim where is the most desirable place to get solemnized and their answer would be a mosque. It's not compulsory because solemnization can be carried out at any location as long as the Kadi, appointed witnesses and documentations are present but we all know a location can make a whole lot of difference.
There is a sense of solemness, religious piety and empowerment especially that the fact that 'akad nikah' is the most religious act in the entire wedding.
Considering for a mosque solemnization, I looked up in the nearest mosque near our place which is the Masjid Alkaff Kampung Melayu. I used to go to religious classes in the mosque when I was a little girl.
Check out their revamped website here.
The website says that they do rent out a multi-purpose hall at $150/session of 3 hours. Unfortunately, their MPH is not open for a small walimah because it's very near to the main prayer hall, unlike other mosques like Masjid Al Istighfar, Masjid Darul Makmur etc. So cannot sibuk-sibuk with mini pelamin and makan2 okay?
It would be nice to have our ceremony here so we shall see how it goes.

Apparently, Masjid Alkaff does not charge for usage of the prayer hall and the standard booking period is 1 hour but I suggest a personal donation to the mosque as a thank you.
I found a couple of photos of the ceremony held there and it's so simple with a sense of tranquility.
