What areas does Weddings by Laxmi serve?
Weddings by Laxmi is based in Boston and plans weddings across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Connecticut, New York and New Jersey. We also travel for destination weddings on request.
What kinds of weddings do you plan?
Indian weddings of every tradition — North Indian and South Indian, Hindu, Sikh and Jain — as well as fusion and interfaith weddings that bring two families’ cultures into one weekend.
What’s the difference between Full Planning, Custom Planning and Day-of Coordination?
Full Planning is end-to-end management of every event and vendor. Custom Planning gives couples who are planning themselves a professional framework, vendor vetting and monthly check-ins. Day-of Coordination is a four-to-six-week takeover so you can hand off the timeline and enjoy the day.
How far in advance should we book a wedding planner?
For Full Planning, most couples book 10 to 14 months before the wedding. Day-of Coordination is usually arranged three to four months out. Popular dates and venues book early, so reach out as soon as you have a date in mind.
Do you handle multi-day wedding weekends?
Yes. Mehndi, haldi, sangeet, the ceremony and the reception are all run to a single master timeline, with one coordination team across every function.
How much does wedding planning cost?
Every wedding is quoted individually. Cost depends on your guest count, the number of functions, and whether you choose Full Planning, Custom Planning or Day-of Coordination. After a consultation call you receive a written proposal with no hidden fees.
Do you provide decor, photography and catering as well as planning?
Yes. Planning, decor and florals, mandap and stage, photography and video, hair and makeup, catering and bar, DJ and live music, baraat with dhol and ghodi, lighting and sound, invitations, transportation and priest coordination are all arranged in-house through Laxmis World LLC, so every element works to one plan. You are also welcome to bring your own vendors.
Do you arrange a DJ, dhol and baraat entertainment?
Yes. We book DJs and live music, dhol players, a ghodi or vintage car for the baraat, MCs, dancers, photo booths and after-party acts — or we manage the performers you’ve already chosen and fold them into the run-of-show.
Can we use our own caterer or photographer?
Yes. Every service we offer in-house is optional — you can bring your own caterer, photographer, decor team or DJ, and we coordinate them into the plan. Most couples mix a few of our vendors with their own.
Do you plan smaller weddings and single events?
Yes. We plan intimate court and temple ceremonies, receptions on their own, and single functions like a sangeet or haldi — not only full multi-day weekends.
How many weddings do you take at once?
A limited number each year, so every couple has a dedicated lead planner. Peak weekends are held for one wedding at a time.
Do you travel outside New England?
Yes, for destination weddings. Our home base is Boston and most of our work is in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Connecticut, New York and New Jersey, but we plan weddings elsewhere in the US and abroad on request.
