Pre-wedding mehendi — lawn brunch for extended family

Mid-morning start, shade and sun pockets, and a spread that worked for elders standing with thalis and cousins grazing between dances.

Stations were paced so nothing sat too long in the heat: chaat refreshed on rotation, mains held under cover, and dessert landed when energy dipped before lunch proper.

We aligned service with the photographer’s quiet moments so plates never crossed the central seating ring at the wrong time.
