Wedding Designs and Candid Moments
A collection of fleeting joys and design details from our celebrations. From quiet, intimate luncheons to grand, vibrant festivities, we focus on the atmosphere where your stories happen.
'The Mayfair Luncheon' was a playful and vibrant take on a Bridgerton-inspired world, set against the backdrop of the Umaid Bhawan Palace. We used French-inspired structures, charming tents, and a dreamy pink and lavender palette to create a whimsical and romantic tale.

The 'Midnight Marrakesh' event came alive with soulful performances, including these mesmerizing whirling dervishes. Entertainment is a key part of the vibe, and we ensure the decor provides the perfect stage for it.

About Additional Work & Candid Moments
We believe decor shouldn't just be seen; it should be felt. When we design spaces, we prioritize tactile details—like velvet seating, bone inlay tables, or hand-painted fabrics—because your guests interact with these elements throughout the event. We focus on these specific textures to ensure a temporary setup feels like a comfortable home, rather than just a venue.
Whether it is a quiet, sunlit luncheon at Umaid Bhawan or a lively Sangeet at a private farmhouse, our approach remains rooted in authentic storytelling. Design is about the spaces between the formal events—the candid laughter, the quiet exchange between family members, and the atmosphere that supports those fleeting, priceless memories.
We often hear that guests remember how a place made them feel more than how it looked. That is why we invest heavily in comfort-driven design. We do not just place furniture; we construct entire vignettes. For instance, in our Botanical Marrakesh setups, we combine custom prints with plush, tactile fabrics to ensure that even an outdoor lounge feels inviting and intimate.
Our work spans across India, from historic palaces to modern hotels. We handle the structural builds, the lighting rigs, and the floral artistry, but we also ensure there is enough room for people to simply be themselves. When we design a Mandap or a lounge zone, we are thinking about the background for your family photos and the backdrop for your conversations. It is about creating a stage for your life to unfold, not just a set for a photo shoot.

I’m Janki, and for me, Altair is all about the stories behind the celebrations. I started with zero experience and a whole lot of heart, and that is still how we work—focusing on the little details that make a day feel like you. I am happiest when I see a couple truly relax and enjoy the world we have built for them.
