Family and friends mix together to create an unique atmosphere .Indian weddings are known for their auspicious rituals. The big Indian wedding becomes a play of ancient traditions, scriptures and ritualsIndian weddings give due care to the relationships among the family and friends and is foremost, a celebration of their joy.WEDDING PLANNER respect these ties and plan the wedding -ceremonies in consultation with the  family of the bride and groom. A wedding planner’s role in the big Indian wedding is much like a family member. He/She knows their client inside out and design specifics such as the wedding stage, wedding invitation and ambiance according to the family’s tastes.                      

1 JAGRAN  This is the first ceremony Indian which is most important.Now Jagran is short timed and called MATA KI CHOWKI It is organised  with full religious feelings .A dinner is layed out for the guests according to the financial conditions of the host.Then guests attend the pooja ceremony for some time.Relatives and fast friends of the wedding family remain seated up til TARA RANI the ending ceremony.Financially stable  families celebrate it with full zeal and zest decorating the venue

Families may also conduct their own poojas.  Ganesh Poojas are especially popular amongst many Hindu families and are held a few days or a day before the wedding to bless the proceedings.  Other poojas include the Kalash Pooja, the Navagraha Pooja, and Mandap Devata Pooja.  Each invokes different deities that may preside over the marriage.    The bride and her family will also do the Gouri Har Pooja in which the bride prays to Gouri and Shankar for a happy and strong marriage.                          

2 Ring/engagement ceremony

It is one of the first ceremonies that takes place between the two families and the would-be bride and groom. The engagement ceremony is basically a brief ritual wherein the couple exchanges gold rings. This ensures both the parties that the girl and the boy are now hooked. This is why it is also called the ring ceremony. This is followed by exchange of gifts between the families like sweets, dry fruits etc. this is followed by either a lunch or dinner 

In some families the sagai ceremony is clubbed with the engagement itself. This is another pre wedding ceremony, which strengthens the bond between the both families. In sagai, the bride is given jewelry, clothes, make-up kit and baby toys, by the mother of the groom. On the other hand, the groom is put tilak and given gifts by the family of the bride. A havan is also performed at times. Here also a lot of gifts such as fruits, sweets, clothes are exchanged between the two.

3 Haldi/Vatna Ceremony.  Here the married women of both the bride and the groom's sides of the family take turns rubbing a mixture of turmeric, oil, and water into the skin and clothes of the bride and groom.  This usually devolves into a bit of a food fight as others are allowed to take part - the kids, if they're allowed to participate, seem to really like squishing it all over the bride and groom's faces.

Actually it acts as a sort of spa day before she got ready for the wedding ceremony as it is supposed to moisturize their skin. Nowadays, grooms are also invited to take part. 

3 Mehndi ceremony    During the Mehndi Night the bride has to sit still for hours while she gets her bridal Mehndi (also known as henna) applied to her arms and feet.  It's very easy to smudge so she has to stay in her seat for ages while it dries.

It is said that the darker the color of the dried Mehndi, the deeper the groom's love for his bride.

Meanwhile the women of the bride's family form the entertainment as they sing traditional (and Bollywood) wedding songs, accompanied by tablas and makeshift instruments.  The men often join in and dance.  It's like a Bachelorette Party the whole family is invited to.  The groom will often have his own set of celebrations happening at his own house with his family.

4 Cocktail party

This is the most important segment of ceremony.ceremony is almost impossible without alcohol.The way of consuming alcohol is more important than alcohol. This we do by creating a unique bar and providing the  handsome, beautiful and gorgeous bartenders. We create warm  ambiance.generally whiskey and wine bottles are placed in bar but we can create bar in the bottle.We give rustic as well as royal look to it depending upon the site

May be any ceremony but without flowers and candles cocktail ambiance  is incomplete.So from start to finish it is done in authentic way  

We discuss face to face with the family  to identify their taste buds to suggest the menu, cuisines wise and theme to be adopted. Then we draw a layout plan of furniture and eatery stations at the venue and get approved from the family members. On the ceremony day we execute according to that layout plan to create unforgettable ambiance and lick fingering food to prove our self CO-HOST with you and your family from programming till the execution of function

THOUGHT OF THE DAY
Everyone says that health, character, are more important than wealth but a person is considered rich only if he possesses wealth in abundance not muscles or principles. I think for this reason only people like to earn money at the cost of health
