People should attend the Majalis of different Mashaykh and you get different "flavours" and Shaykh (Maulana) Hakeem Akhtar Saheb (HA) and his Mashaykh and Mureeds are "happy" people and you get serious "Joy and Happiness" in their Majalis and I don't think that its about cracking jokes because a lot of Mashaykh do so.

Usually in Chishti Majalis there is a very "thoughful reflective atmosphere".

Naqshbandi-Mujaddidi Majalis are usually very awe-inspiring, Majestic and very graceful and very prim-proper and organised even the “Non-Deobandi” ones are very graceful and Majestic.

I don't know any other Shaykhs or Mashaykhs apart from Shaykh (Maulana) Hakeem Akhtar Saheb (HA) where you experience the happy/joyous side of Dhikr'.
Hazrat Khalid Iqbal Taib Sahab Db (Khalifa of Hazrat Wala Db) probably answers this question here:

Itni Khushiya Milengi Kay Kuch Had Nahi
Chand Din Naaz Ghum Kay Utha Li Jiyay

(Explanation: You Will get unlimited happiness, just face a few difficulties for Allah(SWT) for a few days)

The unique feature that I find in Khanqah and the Silsila of Hazrat Wala Db, is the simplicity that Hazrat Wala Db has given to the path of Sulook.

Hazrat Wala Db usually says "Laugh as much as you want and stay happy, but when you see that your creator is unhappy then you should also be unhappy"....."Just follow Fardh, Wajib, Sunnat e Moakkida and Stay away from Sins.....and stay Happy"

We hear this all the time from Hazrat Wala Db. Can't think of any other place where Sulook is explained with such simplicity.
