One of the most challenging and prestigious weddings Haritham Wedding Planners has executed was an elaborate international wedding in Chennai, with the majority of guests flying in from across the globe. The scale of logistics was truly mind-blowing — managing over 172 international and domestic flights across four days, including airport pickups and drop-offs, demanded to-the-minute wedding planning, 24/7 monitoring of flight schedules, handling delays, and flawless coordination by our dedicated airport welcome team. Every guest was seamlessly assisted and escorted for a smooth check-in at The Leela Palace Chennai, ensuring a stress-free arrival experience.
This was a grand Kashmiri–Telugu wedding, with multiple wedding events spread across different premium venues in Chennai. Over 100 luxury cars were engaged to transport guests comfortably between venues, reflecting Haritham’s expertise in managing large-scale wedding logistics. Special attention was also given to customized culinary requirements — including thoughtfully curated vegan menus — ensuring every guest’s dietary preferences were met with care and precision.
The ultimate testimonial came after the celebrations, when the delighted client entrusted Haritham with planning his younger son’s destination wedding in Seoul, South Korea, the following year — in an equally grand and meticulous style. For us, there is no greater endorsement of our reputation as a trusted luxury wedding planner in Chennai and across the globe.
Pre wedding UPANAYANAM being performed for the groom and his siblings. We spared no efforts to find an English speaking Purohit who could explain the meanings of the mantras and rituals of the Upanayanam to the young men for a better understanding of what they were doing
Team Haritham visited Rajasthan to source special bangles from for the guests for the mehndi ceremony. We brought in dozens of bangles in all sizes made of lac, wood, metal and other materials. We set up a bangle stall and the guests were blown away by the colours and designs.
HALDI being an important pre wedding ritual we ensured that all arrangements were in place and to add the authentic feel only silver ware was used during the rituals.
Guests were also eager to get the traditional mehndi done from our mehndi artists who explained the process patiently to the foreign guests.
At Haritham, we always like to understand the client’s taste and customise services accordingly. For this wedding we had a special troupe flown in from Mumbai to entertain the guests with Retro music during the Mehndi
Since our client loved anything traditional, we set up a photo booth with a Retro theme and had loads of funny props which the guests loved to put on and get instant pics clicked to carry back as mementoes.
The formal engagement was done following the Telugu tradition.
It is customary to shower the bride with gifts and here the ladies from the groom’s side are seen carrying the specially decorated Seer Plates put together by Haritham with sarees, jewels, fruits and gifts for the bride

We had our Dol players in full josh at 3 am on the wedding morning to set the celebration mood. The guests danced relentlessly till the groom arrived an hour later in a decorated car.
Wedding rituals were a mix of Telugu and Kashmiri tradition
Haritham had customised the sweet boxes for all guests with the couple’s initials etched on the box. As for the contents, we had made an assortment of the most delicious Kaju and dry fruit sweets
Grihapravesh at the Groom’s room at The Leela Palace was done in the traditional manner after getting the required permission from the hotel management. The room was beautifully decorated to give it a homely feel
For the evening reception we had arranged for professionals to tie the PAGRI for all the male guests before leaving for the reception. We had ordered for beautiful broaches to be attached to all the pagris and the guests were totally overawed by the whole experience
Every guest enjoyed wearing the Pagri so much that many of them carried it back with them as a souvenir. They were enthusiastic about getting photographed with the pagri.

The lady guests were not to be left behind. Haritham had organised for make up artists and saree drapers and every guest loved the traditional Indian look. We also had a tailor on call for last minute alterations that were required for blouses and lehngas
The next day we had a sit-down Reception Dinner hosted by Neil’s parents at Hotel Leela Palace, with specially curated menu to suit the local, international and vegan guests. We had several sittings with the Hotel Chef to finalise a menu that would be enjoyed by all present
Our baker had done an exquisite job of the wedding cake that drew compliments from all
Post dinner the floor was open to all as our music troupe got into action with some foot tapping numbers.
