About Wedding Planning & Events
A wedding, for us, isn’t just a function - it’s a sacred chapter in life, filled with Sadhana, Seva, Satsang, and finally, Shaadi. We try to keep the vibe mast (blissful), free from heavy demands, just as Gurudev says - love grows with less demand.
How We Host Weddings
- Two main options:
- Individual weddings at our peaceful Mahalaxmi Mantap, guided by Vaidic Dharma Sansthan and conducted with full devotion by learned ashram pandits. Every ceremony sticks to Vedic wedding rituals for that authentic feel.
- Samoohik Vivaha (Group weddings): Energetic, collective celebrations during times like Navaratri or Shivratri, often in Gurudev’s presence. Couples from everywhere join in this big, spiritual Indian wedding ceremonies.
The Setting & Traditions
- Bangalore ashram wedding venue gives a serene, spiritual energy.
- Beyond shaadi - we also do Karwa Chauth pujas and other traditional events.
- Decor leans on fresh flowers, brass lamps, banana leaves, and color combos from bold reds to soft whites. It’s all about keeping it pure and joyful.
All-Round Support
- We’re there from start to finish, even before the wedding day. Need decor, food, photos, guest rooms, or travel arranged? We link you up with the right folks who understand our approach.
