Most Ottawa wedding decorators do one wedding. We do the whole week — and in the communities we serve, a wedding is almost never a single day.
A Pakistani, Indian, Punjabi or Bangladeshi wedding in Ottawa typically runs three to five events: dholki or mayon, mehndi, nikah, barat and walima. Each one has a different palette, a different mood and a different set of objects. Booking them separately costs more and looks less coherent than booking them as one project, which is how we prefer to work.
What a wedding booking includes
- Stage and backdrop — two-panel, full-width and royal red builds, in ivory, blush, sage, red-and-gold and custom palettes
- Floral installations — garlands, wisteria work, rose and marigold, fresh or artificial
- Couple's seating — sofa, takhat, throne or floor seating with bolsters
- Centrepieces and table styling — floral, candle and floating-candle arrangements
- Chair covers, sashes and linens
- Lighting — fairy light curtains, LED string, floor lanterns and uplighting
- Entry and aisle décor, card box and podium
- Couple's personal pieces — varmala, sehra, dupatta, floral jewellery, bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres
- Delivery, setup and takedown — always included, never subcontracted
The full wedding sequence
We build for each event in the week rather than repeating one look five times. Every ceremony below has its own page, because each is genuinely a different job.
- Mayon — yellow and marigold, the week opens
- Dholki — the singing night, usually at home
- Mehndi — marigold, mirror-work, Rajasthani umbrellas
- Sangeet — a stage built to be performed on
- Jago — decorated pots and a procession
- Nikah — stage, divider curtain, Arsi Mushaf
- Barat — the largest stage and the arrival
- Walima — the reception, the whole room dressed
Budget-friendly, and what that actually means
We say budget-friendly because it is true, not as a discount pitch. What it means in practice is that we will tell you where money changes the photographs and where it does not.
Lighting and a well-built backdrop change every picture taken that night. A larger floral budget spent on details nobody stands close to does not. On a constrained budget we will steer you toward the first and away from the second — and we would rather do that honestly than sell you the biggest quote you will accept.
Ottawa venues we work in
We set up across the National Capital Region: banquet centres including Sala San Marco on Preston Street (ballroom capacity to 500) and the Infinity Convention Centre near Hunt Club (15,000 sq ft, 23-foot ceilings, capacity around 1,200), masjid and community halls, hotel function rooms, restaurant private rooms, and family homes and backyards across Kanata, Barrhaven, Orléans, Nepean and Gatineau.
Ceiling height is the single most important thing you can tell us about a venue. It changes the build completely, and a stage sized for the wrong room is the most common and most expensive mistake in this business.

Good to know
Questions we get asked
It depends on how many events you are running, the size of each venue and how much floral work is involved. A single nikah setup at home and a five-event wedding week across two banquet halls are very different projects.
We quote rather than publish a price list, because a fixed package almost always means paying for something you do not need. WhatsApp +1 (613) 883-4969 with your dates, venues and guest counts.
Yes, and it is how we prefer to work. Running the mayon, dholki, mehndi, nikah, barat and walima as one project keeps the palette coherent across all the photographs, lets us reuse structure between events, and costs meaningfully less than booking each separately.
Send the full run of dates and venues and we will quote the sequence.
For 2026, as early as you can. We are already taking bookings for summer 2026 and the peak spring and summer Saturdays fill first.
Three to six months is realistic for a full wedding week. Four to six weeks usually works for a single small event. Short notice is always worth asking about.
Yes. Our specialism is South Asian, Arab and Turkish wedding décor because that is where our inventory and knowledge are deepest, but we do a great many ivory-and-white weddings, backyard weddings and mixed-tradition celebrations.
If your wedding combines two traditions, say so — it is a design problem we enjoy and one we have solved often.
Yes, always. We deliver, install and strike everything ourselves — it is not subcontracted. Setup and takedown are included in every quote.
The one thing we need early is your venue access window, because it determines how large a setup is realistically possible.
Yes. Every backdrop, divider and frame we own is freestanding, so we need no wall fixings, no ceiling rigging and no tape. That is why we can work in masjids, municipal halls, heritage properties and condo party rooms where a rigging-dependent supplier cannot.
Tell us the venue and we will confirm their rules with them directly.
