The desk

Four disciplines, one house.

Arika's wedding practice is a Mumbai-based wedding and celebration planning service that holds all four parts of a wedding under one house: venue, guest travel, production and décor. Guest flights and visas, room blocks at hotels where Arika has stood for thirty years, production from concept to final cue, and décor through Minnt Green Decor.

Why this house

Nobody hands you off.

Six things a family gets from one house rather than four vendors.

  1. I

    Four disciplines, one house

    Travel, venue, production, décor. Nobody hands you off.

  2. II

    Five-star access built over thirty years

    Venue availability that a cold enquiry does not get.

  3. III

    Guest travel in-house

    Flights on our own IATA number, visas for international guests by our own desk, transfers and room blocks by our own teams.

  4. IV

    Décor by Minnt Green Decor

    A separate studio working alongside us, exclusive panelist at seven Mumbai five-stars, built on premise and never templated.

  5. V

    Music licences arranged

    Every wedding with commercial music legally needs one. We handle all four bodies.

  6. VI

    A director attached to your wedding

    Not a coordinator you meet once.

Straight answers

What people ask before they plan.

Three questions families ask before the first meeting, answered plainly.

  1. 01

    Do you plan destination weddings?

    Yes — in India and abroad. Abroad, our outbound team and destination partners handle the ground, and our visa desk handles the guests. In India, our hotel relationships handle the room blocks.

    Read the full answerClose

    In India, our hotel standing produces the venue and the room block. Abroad, our outbound team and destination partners handle the ground while the visa desk processes guests as a single delegation with one case owner. Production and décor travel with us either way.

  2. 02

    Can you manage travel for guests coming from overseas?

    Yes. Flights, visas, transfers and room blocks are all in-house — this is the single most common reason families choose one house over three vendors.

    Read the full answerClose

    A guest list is a travel programme: flights issued on our IATA number, group visas for international guests, transfers and room blocks negotiated with hotels we work with daily. One house answers for the guest's journey and for the wedding itself.

  3. 03

    Do we need a music licence for a wedding?

    Yes — playing commercial recorded music at a wedding legally requires a licence from PPL, Novex, IPRS or RMPL, depending on the repertoire. We arrange it as part of the programme.

    Read the full answerClose

    The licence depends on repertoire — PPL, Novex, IPRS or RMPL, and often more than one. Our licensing desk is an aggregator across all four, so the paperwork behind the music is handled as part of the programme rather than discovered the week before.

Questions

Asked often.

Short answers. If yours is not here, the events desk picks up.

01Do you handle destination weddings?

Yes — in India and abroad. Abroad, our outbound team and destination partners handle the ground, and our visa desk handles the guests.

02Can you manage travel for guests coming from overseas?

Yes. Flights, visas, transfers and room blocks are all in-house.

03Is décor included?

Décor is delivered by Minnt Green Decor, our sister studio, and invoiced separately as its own studio. In practice you deal with one house throughout.

04Do we need a music licence?

Yes — playing commercial music at a wedding legally requires a licence from PPL, Novex, IPRS or RMPL. We arrange it as part of the programme.

05What does it cost?

Fully managed weddings carry a management fee — a percentage of event value or a flat fee, agreed upfront. Payments run to milestones rather than one lump.
