A Surprise Walima to Remember: The Groom’s Plan



When the groom reached out to us for his and the bride’s Walima, it wasn’t just about decor—it was about crafting a surprise she’d never forget. As the sole planner, the groom’s openness to fresh ideas and his classic yet innovative style made this project a joy to design.


Inspired by the groom’s chic winter suit, we incorporated its essence into the decor, emphasizing timeless elegance with modern touches. The main focus? Creating a show-stopping aisle and stage while keeping the rest of the space minimal and elegant. This decision not only elevated the room but also ensured the most-photographed areas were picture-perfect.


The couple’s grand spin down the aisle remains one of our favorite moments. The bride’s awe, paired with the beauty of their surroundings, captured exactly what we aim to create: unforgettable memories.




Why Focal Points Matter

In wedding decor, it’s easy to get caught up in details that don’t always make an impact. This Walima is proof that focusing your budget on key areas—like the stage and aisle—pays off. These are the spaces where memories (and photos) are made, so investing here ensures a lasting impression.
