A short letter from you — the dates, the cities, the saree if you’ve chosen it. We respond in 48 hours with an invitation to consult.

II
WEEK 1

The Consultation

A 60-minute conversation in our Bandra atelier or by video. We map your hair history, the ceremonies, and the looks you’ve saved.

III
WEEK 6

The Trial

A full hair-and-makeup rehearsal six weeks before the wedding. We photograph every angle and refine. You leave with the chosen pieces.

IV
WEEKS 7-10

The Atelier Build

Wefts hand-tied to your measurements; lace fronts custom-bleached to your hairline; ornament chains wired in our atelier.

V
WEDDING DAY

The Day

A senior stylist on-site for the full evening. Touch-ups between events. We do not leave until the last photograph is taken.

VI
AFTER

The Heirloom

After the wedding, the pieces are returned for cleansing and re-wefting, free for the first year. They are now yours, for any chapter ahead.

Letters from Atelier Brides
They photographed eleven hours of my wedding and the only thing I changed was my saree. Reema wired the maang-tikka into the lace front so it sat exactly where my mother’s had. I have not stopped sending people their way.

Before you write.

How early should I book?
Six months in advance is ideal — it gives us time for trial, build, and a second refinement. We have served brides on a four-week timeline; we have also turned weddings down. Earlier is better.
