What does Panigrahana Weddings plan and design?
Panigrahana Weddings is an architect-founded wedding planning and decor studio. Our planners coordinate venues, vendors, guest arrangements and the event schedule. Our designers develop layouts, materials, florals and lighting with the production team. You can commission planning, design and decor, or an agreed combination.
Compare planning and decorWhere do you plan weddings?
Our focus is Bangalore and the drive-to Karnataka belt (Nandi Hills, Mysore, Coorg, Chikmagalur, Kabini), Goa and Kerala. Outside India we plan Indian weddings in Thailand, Bali and Europe. Start with the destination and functions you have in mind so we can discuss the team, venue and production work your celebration needs.
Explore destination weddingsCan we plan an Indian wedding while living abroad?
Yes. Agree a communication rhythm, decision-makers and the work needed on the ground. The couple portal brings planning records together; design reviews and written approvals help the team act on the same decisions. Plan any India visit around appointments that need your presence.
Read the planning-from-abroad guideHow should we choose a wedding planner or decorator?
Look at completed work at comparable venues, read original client reviews and ask who is responsible for planning, design and execution. Compare written scopes, exclusions and change procedures. A decorator-only proposal and a full planning proposal cover different work, so compare the responsibilities as well as the price.
Compare decor delivery modelsHow much do wedding planning and decor cost?
Your destination, functions, guest arrangements and production scope determine the quote. Panigrahana quotes planning for the agreed scope; in-house design and decor are quoted for their own work. Compare venue, accommodation, catering, decor and planning separately, then confirm taxes, exclusions and payment milestones.
Understand planning fees and scopeDoes Panigrahana take commissions from vendors?
Panigrahana takes zero vendor commissions; clients pay vendors directly. Our planning fee and in-house design and decor charges are agreed for their respective scopes. Zero vendor commission does not mean the studio supplies its own services without a margin.
Read our company factsHow early should we start planning?
Start once you have an approximate date or season, guest count and destination. Check venue and supplier availability before making non-refundable travel arrangements. The workable timeline depends on your dates, functions and the work involved; share what is decided and what is still open.
Read the booking-timeline answerHow do you develop a wedding design?
Begin with your references and the actual venue. Review the layout, dimensions, materials, lighting and production scope together before approval. Agree which drawings, samples or models are included in your proposal, and record changes against the approved version.
Explore architect-led wedding designWhat can we see in the couple portal?
The homepage walkthrough shows the portal’s planning calendar, event showflow and payment records using sample data. Select each tab and its annotations to explore the interface. Your booked project uses the records and responsibilities agreed with the planning team.
Explore the couple portalHow do we compare wedding venues?
Give each venue the same dates, function plan, guest count and room allocation. Confirm indoor alternatives, ceremony permissions, installation access and guest movement before deciding. Keep missing quotations and unconfirmed capacities unresolved until the venue answers in writing.

The Kerala guide compares the studios couples shortlist most often.
Compare Kerala wedding plannersDo you plan weddings near Bangalore, in Coorg, Mysore or Nandi Hills?
Yes. The drive-to belt around Bangalore is home ground for us: Nandi Hills, Mysore, Coorg, Chikmagalur, Kabini, Sakleshpur and Hampi. The same in-house crew that builds our Bangalore weddings travels out with the decor. Amita Rasa, in the Nandi Hills foothills, is one estate where you can see our finished work on this site.
Plan a wedding in CoorgWhat does a Goa wedding cost at a five-star resort?
Food is usually the largest line. Taj Exotica in Benaulim, for example, shows ₹5,500 per plate, vegetarian or non-vegetarian, taxes extra, on its WedMeGood listing (checked 5 September 2026), and sells the resort on a food-and-beverage minimum and a room block. Decor, planning and guest travel are quoted separately, so ask each for a written figure.
Read the Goa wedding cost guideWhen is the best time for a beach wedding in Goa?
November to February is the most reliable window: dry weather, clear skies and daytime temperatures of roughly 24–30°C. October and March also work, with more heat. June to September is the south-west monsoon, so avoid it for an outdoor beach ceremony, or book a venue with an indoor space you would be happy to use.
Compare Goa wedding venuesHow many weddings has Panigrahana Weddings planned?
Panigrahana Weddings has produced 500+ weddings since 2018, across 12 countries. Around 300 of them were for couples living abroad, and 80+ were in Goa. The studio is a 30-person team of planners, architect-designers and production crew, and works with 128+ venue partners.
Read the company factsWhat percentage do wedding planners take in Bangalore?
Percentage-model planners in Bangalore usually quote 10–12% of the total wedding budget, which is ₹5–6 lakh on a ₹50 lakh wedding and ₹15–18 lakh on a ₹1.5 crore wedding. Panigrahana does not charge a percentage. The planning fee is quoted for the agreed scope, so it does not rise when the catering bill does.
Compare percentage and flat feesIs it worth hiring a wedding planner in Bangalore?
For a wedding with several functions and guests travelling in, usually yes, and the reason is budget control as much as time saved. A planner on a flat fee with no vendor commission gains nothing when your spend goes up, and you pay each vendor directly at their own rate. For one function at one venue, a day-of coordinator may be enough.
Read when a planner is worth itDoes Panigrahana handle guest hospitality and logistics?
Yes. A dedicated hospitality and logistics team handles room blocks and allocation, airport and venue transfers, flight manifests and an on-ground help desk, so guests bring their questions to us and not to the family. This work is scoped and quoted alongside the planning.
Estimate your guest roomsWhat does a wedding planner actually do?
A full-service planner runs the whole wedding: venue shortlisting and contracts, the budget, vendor selection, guest travel and rooms, the function schedule and the team on the day. At Panigrahana the same studio also designs and builds the decor, so the planner and the designer work from one plan.

Panigrahana quotes a flat planning fee for the agreed scope, takes zero vendor commission, and clients pay every vendor directly.
See planner fees explainedWhat makes Panigrahana different from other wedding planners?
Panigrahana was founded by architects, so design starts with the venue’s space, proportion and light. Every mandap and stage is drawn for one couple and fabricated by our own 30-person team; nothing is rented. A dedicated hospitality and logistics team runs guest movement, and couples follow approvals, schedules and payments in the studio’s own portal.
