Luxury Wedding and Event Planning, across the Bay

A full-service team for couples and hosts. From a 30-guest Mehendi at home to a 300-guest Walima at a vineyard — we hold the budget, the vendors and the day-of decisions you would rather not carry, so the day looks effortless because every difficulty was met before it could surface.

Garden reception under a marquee with long tables in white linen and sage runners, gold-rimmed plates on rattan chargers, printed menu cards, bud vases of ferns and white blooms, sage taper candles in tall glass hurricanes and wooden folding chairs receding into the greenery.

Who we serve

We Work with Couples and Hosts Whose Events Feel Personal — multi-day weddings with cultural traditions, milestone birthdays for parents, corporate dinners that should feel hosted, not catered.

Close detail of a sage-and-ivory place setting — a mint taper burning in a tall glass hurricane on a gold holder, a pillar candle, cut-glass goblets, eucalyptus and baby's breath trailing along the linen, and a gold-rimmed plate set with a rosemary sprig on a printed menu card.

The events we plan

  • Weddings, Walimas, Mehendi, Nikah and multi-day cultural celebrations
  • Engagements, milestone birthdays and anniversaries
  • Baby Showers, Ameen and naming ceremonies
  • Corporate dinners and private hosted events

Every event begins with a conversation. We listen first, then propose a scope and a fee — never a percentage of total spend, never an hourly rate that grows in surprise.

Frequently asked

The Questions We Hear Most. Answered Honestly.

  • For full planning, six to twelve months ahead is ideal — earlier for venues that book quickly. Partial planning suits two to four months out. Day-of coordination can be arranged with as little as four weeks notice, depending on calendar availability.

  • Absolutely. We love bringing our services to new locations. While most of our events take place in the Bay Area, we’re happy to travel throughout Northern California and beyond for the right event. Travel expenses will be clearly outlined in your custom proposal.

  • Yes — Mehendi, Nikah, Walima and Reception are familiar territory. Our planners and on-site team work in Urdu, Hindi and Punjabi when needed, and we are familiar with the rhythm of multi-day cultural events.

  • Most events fall between 80 and 250 guests. We have planned intimate gatherings for as few as 30 and reception-style celebrations of 350+. Scope and pricing scale accordingly.

  • Yes — our parent brand Ladle n Wok handles the catering, and our design and décor team produces in-house. Many of our events bundle two or three services. Selecting "Multiple Services" on the inquiry form is the quickest way to start.

  • A flat fee tied to scope of services — never a percentage of total spend. After the discovery call we send a detailed proposal: scope, fee, timeline. No surprise add-ons.

  • A 30-minute call where we listen first. We ask about the event, your priorities, any non-negotiables and the realistic budget you are working with. By the end of the call you will know whether we are the right fit.

  • Yes — we carry general liability insurance and can name your venue as additional insured at no extra cost. Most Bay Area venues require this; we handle it routinely.
