Dhruva Kumar HP, founder
Appointed planner
An official appointment is not a marketing badge. It means the estate trusts a studio with its floors, its stone and its access windows — and it means your family is not the one negotiating for them.
Officially appointed wedding planner
Bengaluru, Karnataka
Tudor-revival architecture, extensive grounds, and the capacity for very large functions inside the city. Because it is a protected private estate, decor, rigging, sound curfews and vehicle access are all governed — which is precisely why appointed planners exist.
Officially appointed wedding planner
Mysuru, Karnataka
One of the most photographed buildings in India and among the most tightly governed. Functions here are possible in defined areas, on defined terms, with lead times measured in months rather than weeks.
What we do
We do not subcontract the parts of a wedding that decide whether it works.
How it runs
The order matters. Dates constrain venues, venues constrain design, and design constrains everything that gets built.
A conversation, not a pitch.
We ask about the families, the guest count, the dates you are working around and the budget you are comfortable committing. If we are not the right studio for the wedding, we say so and point you elsewhere.
Dates first, then the venue that fits them.
Auspicious dates constrain everything downstream. We shortlist venues that are actually available and actually capable of the functions you want, then walk them with you.
Drawn, sampled, costed, approved.
A design language for the full sequence of events, with drawings and material samples. Costs are itemised against each drawing so nothing is a surprise at install.
Permissions, vendors, build.
Contracting, permits, fabrication, rehearsals, and a build calendar that respects a heritage venue’s access windows.
You are a guest at your own wedding.
A run-of-show to the minute, a named lead on every function, and a crew whose job is to make sure no one in your family is asked to solve a problem.

We take a limited number of weddings each year. The earlier we hear from you, the more of the calendar is still open.
