About Destination Wedding Planning
Your Wedding, Anywhere
I turn epic locations into celebrations that feel like you. One day it’s a palace in Udaipur, another day it’s a lantern-lit lakeside dinner. I’ve done beach weddings in Thailand, royal parties in the UK, even a carnival-style Mehendi with arcade games. Whatever your vibe, I help you find the right spot and build your dream from scratch.
How I Make It Happen
- I hunt for that perfect, unique wedding venue abroad, whether you want sand, castles, or something wild.
- My network includes local legends in India, Qatar, Zanzibar, and beyond. They help me sort international wedding logistics so you don’t have to sweat the small stuff.
- I run the show behind the scenes - solving last-minute messes, keeping vendors in line, and making sure you actually enjoy your day.
Your Story, Your Style
- Big fan of mixing cultures. I’ve blended Nigerian traditions with Mehendi, hosted Indian rituals in English palaces – cross-cultural wedding planning isn’t just a buzzword for me.
- I ditch generic mood boards for personalized wedding experiences. From Bridgerton balls to disco sangeets, I make it all about you.
Good Times, Good Choices
- If you care about the planet, I offer sustainable destination wedding ideas. I measure your event’s carbon footprint and suggest real ways to keep things eco-friendly.
I’m not just your planner, I’m also your hype crew and the person who’ll make sure you leave with good memories, not stress. At the end, if you say, “Ye ShahDee manzoor hai” (This wedding is approved!), my job’s done.

My Story
Been doing this for 10+ years, from Jamnagar to Zanzibar. We’re not about those copy-paste Pinterest weddings, nah. We want your shaadi to have your vibe, even if it’s a bit messy. Started A New Knot to close the gap between big fat Indian weddings and the actual couple at the center. We’re friends first, planners second. Sometimes, our clients cry at the end, and honestly, so do we. That’s our heart—making your big day feel just like you.
