Wedding planning—isn’t it supposed to be a magical time filled with cake tastings and outfit trials? While those moments exist, the sheer volume of decisions and details can quickly turn overwhelming. And that’s when a planner comes in. With over five years of experience and nearly 100 weddings under their belt, Shubh Tithi’s expert planners, Nikita Dubey and Sahil Rathod, know exactly how to navigate the complexities of wedding planning. From meticulously detailed planning processes to personalised touches that make your big day unforgettable, they do it with ease.
Choosing the Perfect Venue: It’s All About the Details
Nikita advises that couples first finalise their guest list. Whether it’s a destination wedding or a local affair, knowing the approximate number of guests or required rooms is crucial. Beyond logistics, the responsiveness and flexibility of the venue’s sales staff can make or break your event.
Infusing Personality and Style
Shubh Tithi believes that every couple has a story to tell, and their wedding should reflect that narrative. For example, the planners have organised unique events like “Nani Ka Ghar,” reminiscent of the bride’s childhood memories at her grandmother’s place. This not only satisfies the bride but also generates excitement among the guests.
A Systematic Approach
An organised methodology, including using Excel and a tracker sheet, ensures that nothing is missed, transforming a couple’s vision into a flawless event. It begins by understanding the essentials and goals of the couple, ensuring every detail aligns with their dreams.
Innovative Experiences: Beyond the Aesthetics
Going beyond traditional aesthetics to create unique experiences is key. One of the standout ideas orchestrated by Shubh Tithi is to have “Wedding Wands,” a modern twist on the popular wedding bells, perfect for a mountain wedding in Coorg. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg! Their ‘Unique Idea’ series on Instagram is a planning app in itself, bursting with ideas that go way beyond the expected. Some of their popular ideas are a mystery photo booth set up as part of the Sangeet decor, a nostalgic ‘90s toffee bar, and a neon graffiti wall, creating enriching experiences for the guests.
Non-Traditional Themes and Customisation
Incorporating innovative and non-traditional themes sets the wedding apart. The new-age couples are all about making it to the gram and customising each and every detail for the wedding. Shubh Tithi hosted a never-seen-before Holographic Haldi creating an entire techno vibe and an experience to remember. Other experiential elements like DIY bars, wedding newspapers, and unique giveaways like bath salts, plant seeds, and evil eye charms create an experience to remember for the guests
From the Bride’s Perspective
Nikita, having planned her wedding, understands the challenges brides face. Planning should begin at least 3-4 months prior and the checklist should be marked a month prior to the festivities. She also emphasises the importance of diverse outfit choices and unique jewellery to avoid a monotonous look. A pro tip for an upcoming bride!
Logistical Challenges and Last-Minute Hassles- Always Prepared
Weather can be unpredictable, so having a plan B is essential. One should know how to stay ahead of the game. Nikita recalls a rainy wedding in Lucknow where they quickly adapted by moving the event indoors, only to move it back outside once the weather cleared.
Shubh Tithi’s expertise lies in transforming dreams into reality. Whether it’s through creative event themes, seamless logistics, or bridging generational gaps, they bring love and creativity together to make each couple’s special day truly magical. Offering trendy ideas for the upcoming wedding season, their ‘Unique Idea’ series is coming back with a month-long playlist of ideas ready to inspire, entertain, and excite.
