What we actually do

We are not a wedding planner. We are the people who get you the palace — and make sure you don't overpay for it.

Palace shortlist in 24 hours
Three properties matched to your dates, guest count and budget, with real availability and pricing.
Buyout negotiation
We sit in the negotiation and get the rate in writing, below palace-direct.
Property walkthroughs
We accompany every site visit. Every palace on our list has been personally walked, never booked off a brochure.
Palace-trained vendors
Introductions to planners, photographers and décor teams who have already delivered at your property.

You book the palace. Your planner runs the functions. We make sure both are the right ones.

Our work speaks for itself

Verified 5-star reviews from brides and grooms whose palace we found — 4.8 average across every couple we've planned for.

A
Anaya & Kabir
G

They found our palace in two days. We married at The Leela Udaipur for less than the palace quoted us directly.

V
Vikram & Ira
G

Eleven palaces shortlisted, three visits, one yes. Choosing our venue was the easiest part of the wedding.

A
Aditi & Rehan
G

They talked us out of a palace that didn't fit our guest list. That honesty is why we trusted them with the rest.

R
Rohan & Sanya
G

Shortlist in a day, rate in writing in a week. Our planner just picked it up from there.

T
Tanya & Aryan
G

Umaid Bhawan, 320 guests, three nights. Their negotiation saved us more than our décor budget.

M
Meera & Dev
G

The Falaknuma walkthrough sealed it. They asked the questions we didn't know to ask.

Honest words from the families we’ve planned for

Their team sat in the buyout negotiation and got us a rate 22% below what the palace quoted us directly — in writing.

Anaya M.
Mumbai · Dec 2025 · The Leela Palace, Udaipur

We walked eleven palaces in three weeks with them. The depth of property knowledge is the reason we booked through them.

Vikram S.
Delhi · Nov 2025 · Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur

They told us when a palace wasn’t right for us, and introduced a planner who had already worked the one we chose.

Aditi R.
Bengaluru · Feb 2026 · Samode Palace

Palace wedding FAQ

Do you plan the wedding itself?+

No. We get you the palace and negotiate the buyout, then introduce planners and vendors who have worked that exact property. Your planner runs the functions.

How are you free for couples?+

Palaces pay us a commission on a confirmed booking — never a fee from you, and never a charge per enquiry. We still negotiate against the palace on your rate, in writing, before you sign.

How early should we book?+

9–14 months is ideal. Top palaces release prime-season dates 12+ months out.

Can we buy out the entire palace?+

For most of our partner palaces, yes. Full buyout means exclusive use of grounds and room inventory. We negotiate buyout terms in writing.

What about permits at a heritage destination?+

Heritage, fire, police and noise permits are part of our scope. You won’t see a single permit form.
