About this collection
When I design for engagements or receptions, I focus on the transition between daylight ceremonies and evening celebrations. I use modular green wall structures that act as a base, allowing us to swap out traditional floral streamers for evening lighting and disco accents without dismantling the entire setup. This means your venue looks consistent throughout the day, whether you are hosting a morning puja or an evening cocktail party.
My approach to engagements and receptions is rooted in storytelling. I avoid using standard templates. Whether you are hosting an intimate ceremony at a villa like Angana The Courtyard or a grand reception at The Lalit Ashok, the decor is designed to complement the architecture rather than hide it.
For engagements, I often use fresh fern frames combined with marigold or tuberose streamers. This creates a bridge between the sanctity of traditional rituals and modern aesthetic preferences. For evening receptions, we shift the mood using intelligent lighting, lush green walls with personalized monograms, and carefully placed chandeliers.
Many couples worry about lighting. I prioritize warm ambient lighting because it photographs better than harsh, direct stage lights. We often use fairy light curtains or focused par cans to highlight the floral density of the backdrop without washing out your outfits.
Since I work extensively in Bangalore and Goa, I understand the challenges of outdoor venues. We build structures that are sturdy enough for breezy lawn settings but refined enough for indoor banquet halls. If you have a specific venue in mind, let me know, as the lighting architecture changes significantly between a poolside setup and a ballroom.
