Why We Made It
The Framework Behind Every Wedding We Plan
Most wedding stress comes from doing things in the wrong order — booking the photographer before the date, or leaving the venue until the good ones have gone. This checklist is the sequence we follow internally, shared openly.
What's Inside
Six Phases, One Clear Path
12–10 Months
Set the budget, fix the muhurtham or church date, and lock the primary venue. Everything else follows from these three.
9–7 Months
Appoint photographer, decorator and caterer while the best are free. Begin accommodation planning for outstation family.
6–4 Months
Finalise design, menus and transport. Order invitations and confirm the sequence of every event.
3–2 Months
Tastings, hair and makeup trials, décor mock-ups. Send invitations and open RSVPs.
1 Month
Confirm run-sheets with every vendor, brief both families, and settle final headcounts.
Wedding Week
Rehearsals, guest arrivals, vendor coordination and the celebration itself.
For Families Abroad
A Dedicated NRI Section
Planning from the Gulf, the UK or North America adds a layer the usual checklists ignore — compressed timelines, remote approvals, documentation that assumes you’re a resident, and guests arriving over a few days. The checklist has a section built for exactly this.
Beyond the Checklist
Prefer to Hand It All Over?
The checklist is yours to keep, whether or not we ever speak. But if you’d rather not hold the whole thing in your head, that’s exactly what we’re for.
