Full wedding planning
One planner who owns every detail, from the first call to the last guest home.
Updated Kalyan Co Planning TeamReviewed by Mefas Fransis
Full wedding planning with Kalyan Co means one named planner runs everything: venue and vendors, budget, guest travel, rituals, timings and the day itself. We charge 8–12% of the managed budget, with a minimum fee, and every vendor price is shown to you openly.
Most couples who plan with us live somewhere else: another city, another country, another time zone. Full planning means you make the decisions and we do everything else: shortlisting and negotiating venues, booking vendors, managing the budget, organising your guests and running every function on the day.
You get one planner from start to finish, a shared plan you can open any time, and a WhatsApp group where questions get answered in minutes, not days.
What’s included
Venue and vendors
Shortlists with real prices, site visits by video or in person, negotiation and contracts.
Budget you can see
A live budget with every quote attached; no hidden commissions.
Rituals and timings
Priests, officiants, muhurtham timings and a minute-by-minute run sheet.

Questions couples ask
How much does a wedding planner cost in India?
Full-service planners usually charge a percentage of the budget. Kalyan Co charges 8–12% of the managed budget, with a ₹3.5 lakh minimum for destination weddings, and shows every vendor’s price openly.
Can you plan our wedding if we live abroad?
Yes; most of our couples do. We work by video call in your time zone and WhatsApp, and many couples visit once, or not at all, before the wedding.
Do you take commissions from vendors?
Any commission is disclosed in your budget. We would rather earn our fee from you and negotiate vendors down on your behalf.
