About this collection
We don't just drop off a package. For every rental, we arrive at your venue 1.5 hours early to assemble the entire scene on your console table. You provide the base table and we handle the styling, the doll placement, the fresh flower bases, and the lighting, so you can focus entirely on the pooja.
Our Dohale Jevan setups are inspired by the philosophy of 'junan te sonan' which means old is gold. We take the traditional Rukhwat concept and reimagine it for the modern mother-to-be. These displays are not just decor pieces; they are interactive storytelling vignettes that add a touch of warmth and heritage to your celebration.
How We Design Your Display
Every setup starts with a conversation about the theme. Whether you want a traditional Maharashtrian Wada (ancestral home) scene, a modern maternity runway with dolls in black dresses, or a mythological theme like the Krishna Leela, we tailor the dolls and props to match your vision. We use handcrafted miniature outfits, brass utensils for the bhatukali (traditional kitchen set), and fresh floral accents to ensure the display feels vibrant and authentic.
Practical Details for Your Event
- Rental Basis: All our doll setups are available for rental. This keeps the process sustainable and gives you access to premium, detailed themes without the hassle of purchasing props you will only use once.
- Edible Add-ons: We also offer traditional food and sweet displays that complement the doll setup. These are freshly made, edible, and designed to match the theme of your event.
- Setup Requirements: Our teams handle the entire installation process. We use battery-operated fairy lights and focus lighting to ensure the display looks perfect for photos, requiring no extra electrical work at your end.
We work with families across Mumbai, Pune, and all over Maharashtra to create a beautiful backdrop for your baby shower. If you have a specific story you want to tell or a family tradition you want to include, let us know.
