A personal invitation

Tell us what you are planning

Every family is different, so we would rather begin with a conversation than a booking form. Choose what this is about and we will only ask what matters.

How it works

From first message to your ceremony

  1. 01

    Enquiry

    You send a few details or telephone. Nothing is booked or confirmed at this stage.

  2. 02

    Consultation

    A conversation, by phone or at a time you choose in the calendar, to talk through the ceremony, your customs and what is needed.

  3. 03

    Ceremony confirmed

    Only once the arrangements have been discussed and you are comfortable with them is the ceremony confirmed personally.

Speak first

Choose a suitable time to speak with Manishbhai

Select a convenient time for an initial conversation about your ceremony, requirements and location.

Prefer to send the details first? Use the enquiry form below and we will reply personally.

Step one

What can we help you with?

Choose the option closest to what you are planning. This is simply the first step — nothing is confirmed until we have spoken with you personally. Costs are discussed once the ceremony requirements and location are understood.

What happens after you get in touch

No automated sales sequence. A short, clear path from your first message to a ceremony you understand.

  1. You tell us what you are planning

    The ceremony, the date if you have one, and anything you are unsure about.

  2. We check the date honestly

    If the date cannot be served under Manishbhai’s standards, we say so early.

  3. A conversation, not a quote

    We talk through the ceremony, the practicalities and what your families expect.

  4. Preparation and confirmation

    Order of service, samagri and coordination confirmed in writing before the day.
