We did not have to worry about anything

Poonam was an amazing help to us, we came across The Maharani Diaries early in my wedding planning but wasn’t totally sure what we were after. When COVID derailed our plans we were ready to throw in the towel. It was such a tough time for our families. I reached our to Poonam and she helped us get our planning going again. She guided us (virtually held our hands) through the entire process.

Poonam has a great deal of experience, and this shows through her work and professionalism. On the day, everything just went so smoothly, we literally did not have to worry about anything. She was at the venue at the crack of dawn she had picked up our garlands and worked closely with the venue and decorating team to have the venue ready. Every vendor reached out to say they really enjoyed working with Poonam and her team. We can’t thank her enough for helping us have the best day of our lives, and we highly recommend her services!!

An absolute dream to work with

Poonam was an absolute dream to work with! Planning three weddings in the midst of a pandemic, with both halves of the couple working busy full-time jobs is no mean feat, but Poonam pulled it off with both flair and professionalism. Poonam was always happy to lend an ear and offer advice on everything from outfits to decor to logistics. She not only coordinated our five events exceptionally but styled them beautifully.

She truly understood our vision and made it into a reality, and we could not be happier with how each event looked. She was invaluable and an integral part of ensuring our whole week and the lead up went smoothly. She was detail-oriented, ensured nothing was forgotten and flexible when the weather necessitated a last-minute venue change. Throughout all the events her team went above and beyond whenever it was required and ensured any would-be disaster was averted. We are so lucky that we had Poonam by our side during the most memorable week of our lives, we couldn’t have done it without you!

We didn’t have to lift a finger

Poonam was so helpful with making sure all the little details and styling was on point. She was very professional and made sure she understood exactly what we wanted. We gave her our inspiration pictures; she took them and exceeded our expectations. All the events just looked amazing! She and her team made sure the events ran smoothly.

Thanks to her, all the vendors knew what they had to do on the days, and she was there making sure everyone was on time doing what they needed to. So, my family got to enjoy the events. We didn’t have to lift a finger. Highly recommend Maharani Diaries! Can’t imagine how we would’ve done it all without her!

We had the perfect day

Poonam is an incredibly skilled wedding planner. I cannot express how little stress both me and my now husband (!) felt in the lead up to the wedding. She was highly professional throughout and managed to pull off the wedding with less than 3 month’s notice…and all within budget. She was helpful right from the start. She advised us on the best venues for Hindu ceremonies, took care of the bookings, and liaised with all the vendors. If anything went wrong during the planning stages, she came to us with a solution already sorted out.

We had the perfect day, and it was more special than we ever could have imagined. Everything went smoothly on the day too, thanks to her preparation. And for us to be able to rock up on the day and just enjoy it without worrying about anything was priceless. Our families and guests all enjoyed themselves too and were truly impressed by what Poonam had managed to achieve. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

Get ready to be inspired by the top 5 wedding styling trends of 2024. 

Enchanting Botanical Installations: Bring the outdoors in with stunning botanical installations. From hanging floral chandeliers to lush greenery against walls or fireplaces, these natural elements create a whimsical and romantic atmosphere.

Modern Minimalism: Embrace the beauty of simplicity with modern minimalist decor. Clean lines, neutral colours, and streamlined details create an elegant and contemporary aesthetic that is both timeless and sophisticated.

Sustainable Styling: Eco-conscious weddings are on the rise, and sustainability is making its mark on wedding decor. Opt for reusable, biodegradable, and locally sourced materials to reduce waste and create an eco-friendly celebration. 

Statement Lighting: Light up your wedding day with striking statement lighting. From cascading chandeliers to bulb installations, romantic candles, creative and captivating lighting designs can transform your venue into a magical setting.

Mix and Match Tablescapes: Say goodbye to traditional matching table settings and embrace the beauty of eclectic mix and match tablescapes. Experiment with a combination of patterns, textures, and colours for a unique and personalized dining experience.

It’s alright to have a little “treat yourself” day every now and again, right? 

Indulge in luxury and let the journey begin! 

A few weeks ago, the lovely Fatema of @the_chairoom and I were treated like royalty as we had the super cool James of @blackcabcentral chauffeur us to an exquisite afternoon tea experience at @langhamsydney. From the elegant ride along Sydney harbour, to the delightful delicacies, every moment was an incredible experience. 

We also had the super cute Liebling accompany us. 🐶

Don’t you just love traditional dance performanc Don’t you just love traditional dance performances at a wedding? 

Birde, Priya and her family put on a fabulous and vibrant dance show at her Sangeet party last year in Melbourne. 

The sangeet party was a magnificent showcase of beautiful, energetic, and traditional Indian dance performances. The twirls, beats, and colourful outfits created an electrifying atmosphere. So much joy and energy in their performances. Join us in reliving the magic of this celebration! 🎉💃🕺
