What does a wedding anchor do?

A wedding anchor hosts the stage moments of your celebrations: welcoming guests, introducing the couple and the families, explaining rituals for guests who are new to them, announcing performances and speeches, and keeping a long evening moving so that the moments you planned actually happen — and on time.

The anchor is also the link between the stage and the people running it: your planner, decorator, photographer and AV crew all work to the same running order.

Wedding functions Palak hosts

One anchor can carry the whole celebration, so every function feels connected. The sangeet has its own guide: hosting your sangeet night.

  • Haldi
  • Mehndi
  • Sangeet
  • Wedding ceremony and pheras
  • Reception

A script about your families, not a template

It starts with a discovery call: your story as a couple, the families, your theme and the traditions that matter to you. From that Palak writes a bespoke script — your stories, your jokes, your cues.

She then syncs with your planner, decorator and photographer so the stage, the lights and the camera are ready for each moment, and arrives early on the day to brief the team.
