Frequently Asked Questions

We are a modern-day networking space with a twist. We are a private social club created exclusively for couples as members who love meaningful connections and great conversations. Think of it as a place where like-minded, high-spirited people come together to network, bond and create unforgettable moments, both professionally and socially.

We are proudly rooted in Dharamshala, HP. That said, don't expect a single fancy address or one fixed building. We are a modern, experience-first social club, not limited to four walls. Our networking events happen at carefully chosen premium third-party venues, so the vibe changes but the experience always stays top-notch.

To put it simply, you get access to a curated circle of like-minded couples who love to socialise, connect and unwind together. The club is invitation-only, so the vibe stays exclusive and comfortable. We host fun events, meet-ups and gatherings where you can relax, chat, laugh and just have a great time. And that's not all – we have also partnered with some of the best cafés, restaurants, pubs and hangout spots to unlock special deals and perks just for our members.

Simply speaking - Good people, good conversations, great experiences - that's what's in it for you.

We don't believe in putting people into neat little boxes - chemistry doesn't come with a checklist. If we had to describe it, we are drawn to educated, working, mature couples who know who they are and what they bring to the table. Think of it this way: your profile may open the door but your personality is what gets you invited to stay. We are not counting titles – we are feeling the vibe in the room. Entrepreneurs, creatives, professionals and social butterflies fit right in here. If you bring good energy, easy conversations and a spark that lights up the circle, you're already halfway home.

Simply speaking, we don't care who you are if you don't fit in here, one rule, though – Membership & participation is for couples only, no single entries please.

Yes. We contribute to NGOs and local initiatives – giving back is built into our culture.

Exclusive enough that not everyone gets a chair. Think of it like a private dinner table, not a food court. We keep memberships limited so quality always beats quantity. When it's full, it's truly full. This isn't a crowded party, it's an exclusive invite-only gathering.

Other clubs chase labels but here it's less about flashing status, more about finding your kind of people. Here connections feel organic, vibes feel effortless and the mountains set the mood. We chase moments, genuine people, experiences handpicked with intention, real conversations and unforgettable mountain vibes.

Simply speaking, no noise, just synergy which matters more than your status!

Nope, no political affiliations here. Stella & Notte is a neutral zone, like a café with no news channel on. We are here for good vibes, great conversations and genuine connections, not debates and banners. Please leave your political connect / affiliations and aspirations at the door before you enrol here.

Yes. No Solo entries please.

Absolutely. You can bring a plus-two to the party, as long as you tell us before the music starts. The hosting couple covers the event fee and the guest couple gets a one-time pass to experience the vibe. After that, it's members-only territory.

Nope, memberships are non-transferable and tied to the approved couple only.

Joining the club is pretty much like getting a VIP pass to the right room. Just fill out the application form on our website and share your profile. Our Executive Committee will take a look, check the vibe and see if our frequencies match. If they do, you'll get an invite to an exclusive online catch-up (a casual chit chat over Zoom VC). Once that's done, we'll slide an official Invitation Email into your inbox. From there, you simply complete the membership payment and step inside.

Think of it as knocking on the door, sharing a handshake and then being welcomed into the circle.

Currently, our inbox is buzzing and the doorbell is ringing nonstop, we've received a wave of membership applications. Every application is thoughtfully reviewed because we curate, not crowd. Give us around a month from your application date, good things take a little time to arrive.

Our membership is strictly a Couple Membership, meaning one membership opens the door for both of you.

Here's how it works:
For FY 2026-27
• One-time Registration Fee: ₹4,999
• One-time Club Membership Fee: ₹24,999 (includes 1st year AMC)

From the 2nd year onwards, all members pay an Annual Maintenance Charge (AMC) of ₹14,999. Consider it the fuel that keeps the engine of experiences running smoothly year after year.

One membership. Two people. Endless conversations, connections and possibilities.

If the AMC isn't paid from the 2nd year onwards, it's like having a gym membership card but never swiping it in. Technically, you're on the list but practically, you're out of the game.

Missed a year and want to come back later? No worries but think of it like restarting a subscription, not skipping episodes. You'll need to pay the full AMC for the year and your renewal clock starts from where your last membership actually ended, not from the day you feel like returning.

There's no "half-season pass" or proportionate billing here. This club runs on full circles, not dotted lines.

Bottom line: pay the AMC on time, stay in the circle and squeeze every drop out of the membership. Why keep a ticket if you're not boarding the ride? 🚀

It's a one-way ticket to the club. Once the fee is paid, it can't be rolled back.

We've gone fully digital - no cash, please.
Why? Because we believe money should leave footprints, not mysteries. Online payments keep things clean, transparent and drama-free. Think of it as playing in daylight, not in the shadows. Taxes paid, books clean, conscience clear.

We don't split the bill here - one smooth swipe and you're all set. Full payment is required upfront.

It's not a routine, it's a rhythm. Usually around 2–3 gatherings every quarter.

Honestly, we don't want to dilute the ecosystem. We all adore our kids but somewhere along the way, parenthood resets the clock of our lives to their time zone. In doing so, we often forget the most important relationship at the center of it all - us.

This club is a gentle wake-up call. A reminder that it's okay to step out sometimes, just the two of us. Think of it as putting your own oxygen mask on first.

That said, we're not closing the door on family moments. We're also exploring hosting one event every six months where children can be part of the experience - because balance is not about choosing one world over another but knowing when to switch gears.

Honestly, we don't believe in locking ourselves into a fixed "event format."

We're more like a good playlist - we read the room and play what feels right.

For us, it's about curating moments people genuinely enjoy and conversations that actually matter. That could mean bonding over breakfast, sealing ideas over lunch or unwinding together at dinner. Some days it's festive lights and celebrations, some nights it's a DJ and the dance floor doing the talking. It could be a short escape, a mini retreat, an evening of live music or qawwali, a stand-up comic making us laugh or something completely unexpected.

Think of our experiences as a flowing river, not a rigid calendar - always moving, always evolving. In short, we'll keep curating, experimenting and creating experiences that feel alive, relevant and worth showing up for- with your valuable inputs of course!

No!

Think of your membership fee as the entry ticket to the club, not the buffet at every party.

Your Membership / AMC gets you access to the circle but each get-together is a new experience with its own price tag. We negotiate the best possible deal for every event and arrive at a simple per couple participation fee. No two events are cut from the same cloth, so the contribution changes from event to event. Details are always shared well in advance, along with the contribution amount and members are requested to confirm and pay beforehand.

In short: Membership opens the door, event fees fuel the experience.

Life happens. Calendars clash. Sometimes you RSVP with your heart but miss it with your feet.

If you genuinely can't make it, no stress, just a small ripple instead of a big splash. We ask you to contribute ₹1000 towards a social cause. Think of it this way: if you can't show up in person, your kindness still walks in for you. We don't pocket this amount. It goes straight to trusted NGOs, reaching those who need it the most.

You may not be in the room, but you're always part of the purpose. remain part of the story—shaping it through quiet impact.

We're constantly at the table with the best cafés, pubs, restaurants and experience creators, shaking hands and striking deals behind the scenes. Think of us as deal-hunters so you don't have to hunt. These perks are member-only. Our alliances unlock exclusive offers that only our members get to enjoy.

We'll keep you in the loop as new doors open. The negotiations never stop and the good news keeps rolling out-one deal at a time.

Yes, 100%. We believe in good vibes, mutual respect and keeping the energy light. Any misconduct is a red card-no second chances. To keep things clear, all members sign a Membership Agreement at the time of joining, covering the terms and conditions of the club.

Yes. Come dressed like a headline, not a footnote -suited to the occasion. Flip-flops, gym wear and "Sunday sofa looks" stay home. We advise smart casuals with a touch of class. If it's meant for the beach or the gym, it's not meant for here.

No labels, no boxes. Think of us as an open table, not a reserved seat. Every belief, background and identity is welcome.

Just humans. Different stories, same room, equal respect.

Yes—without the awkward elevator pitches. Think relaxed conversations over coffee that naturally evolve into meaningful collaborations.
