Consequently, everything had to be perfect from the elaborate design to the catering. Simar Saluja from Classique Events shares, “With over 1,000 guests in attendance, the marriage of a Niti Aayog professional and a doctor was a testament to grandeur, complete with extravagant decor and fine dining. Our planning process was marked by thoroughness and dedication to perfection. We meticulously inspected the venue multiple times, fine-tuned decor layouts, and coordinated every aspect of the event. A skilled team of eighteen professionals orchestrated seamless planning and execution, ensuring every detail was on point.”
As wedding planners, Classique Events went a step further to ensure every aspect matched the celebrations’ theme with a sustainable edge. Simar shares, “We personalized every detail of the wedding stationery with a theme-based approach, ensuring each piece reflected the couple’s unique style and vision.
