Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbandas wedding which he planned with his blood sweat and thankfully no tears We all saw how beautifully done Pulkit and Kritis wedding was but what was the brief givenand how much did their wedding costWhile Sachit could not give us the exact figure due to a confidentiality clause we can assume it was hefty Talking about the brief he said At first we had no brief Jab hum physically mile kyunki we both were batchmates tab automatically zone change ho gaya uske vajah se Plus brief unka sirf ye tha ki humein bohot kum logon ki wedding karni hai humara job bhi flowers hai sab organic hone chahiye kyunki woh charity mein donate kiya gaya hai Har product charity mein gaya hai Koi bhi product waste nahi hui hai Unka focus bohot zyada ispe thaAt first we had no brief When we met in person because we were batchmates the situation automatically changed because of that Plus their brief was just that they wanted a very small wedding and our job was to ensure all the flowers were organic because they were to be donated to charity Every product went to charity Nothing was wasted Their focus was very much on thisIts a celebrity wedding one would assume celebs would be at every corner of the wedding however Sachit informed us It was a familyoriented wedding Bohot close celebrities friends and family bas unhi ko invite kiya gaya tha Kyunki ye waise bhi 100 room ki wedding thiIt was a familyoriented wedding Only very close celebrities friends and family were invited Because this was after all a wedding with just 100 roomsOne of the main highlights for guests at any wedding is the food The planner spilled the details on the menu at Pulkit and Kriti wedding and stated Food unko properly Purani Dilli ka khaana khana tha Unke favourite items he Chole Bhature Chole Kulche Tikki yehi the Jiski vajah se humne bahar ke hotel se sirf main course tha hotel ke bahar se humne kaafi bada menu bhi finalise karwaya tha Jisme Agra ki items Delhi ke Chandni Chowk woh karayi thiThey wanted the food to be authentic Purani Dilli Old Delhi cuisine Their favorite items were Chole Bhature Chole Kulche Tikkis and Jalebis Because of this we arranged for the main course to come from outside the hotel as well and finalized a large menu that included items from Agra and Delhirsquos Chandni ChowkWhat is the most extravagant wedding Sachit has plannedImagine creating Spains

party for Bollywoods newest married couple Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal we received numerous reports of gatecrashers sneaking into their private event But how is that even possible While Sonakshi laughed off the incident the internet was left bewildered and wondered How did this happen And if it can happen to Sonakshi Sinha how can we prevent itSachit stated that this is a clear representation on the wedding planners and one must be very vigilant while manning the guest list Humari hospitality team ispe focus karti hai Hum log clearly ye bolte hain ki aap kiske yahan se invited ho For example agar woh kehte hain main bride ke side se hoon toh hum bolte hain phone number dikhao Kabhi kisi ke paas jaise bride ka mom ka dad ka jo bhi jhoot bolte hain unke paas number nahi hoteOur hospitality team focuses on this We clearly ask who invited you For example if someone says Irsquom from the bridersquos side we ask them to show a phone number Often those who lie dont have the number of any of the family member
