Wedding Anchor & Host — Every Function Covered
Every wedding function hosted with the right energy, warmth and preparation for your family.
Mehendi & Haldi Anchor & Host
The first family gathering of the wedding. Divya keeps the energy warm and personal without over-producing it. Close family, real moments, and a tone that carries through to the rest of the wedding.
Sangeet Night Anchor & Host
High energy, both families involved, performances and games running together. Divya is at her best here. She reads when to push the energy and when to pull it back, and she has turned one-sided shows into full family face-offs.
Wedding Ceremony Anchor & Host
From the baraat entry to the varmala, every moment announced at the right time with the right weight. Rituals held with respect, not rushed. If the baraat runs late, the crowd never knows.
Wedding Reception Anchor & Host
Large guest lists, mixed crowds, tight timelines. Divya manages the full reception flow — couple entry, family introductions, speeches, performances and the first dance — without anything running over or feeling rushed.
Engagement Anchor & Host
The first time both families are in the same room. Divya sets a tone that carries through to the wedding itself. Warm, personal, and never formal for the sake of it. The right start makes everything else easier.
Destination Wedding Anchor & Host
Goa, Udaipur, Karjat, Lonavala. Divya travels across India for destination weddings. Travel and accommodation are discussed transparently at booking. Destination weddings are among her most requested bookings every year.

The room knows the difference
between good Marathi and fluent Marathi.
A learned accent gets clocked in the first sentence.
Kothrud is the part of Pune where people read Marathi for pleasure. The older generation taught at SP College or wrote for Sakal. Their daughters and sons are now booking weddings, and the bar for the language is high. A learned, careful Marathi accent gets noticed before the second sentence ends. Divya’s Marathi is the version Kothrud families actually speak at home. Not memorised. Not over-polished. The aaji in the front row settles into it within the first minute.
The wedding day in Kothrud usually has three parts. The haldi at home in the morning. The pheras at the Karyalaya, almost always on DP Road or Paud Road, in the afternoon. The reception at the same hall or a bigger venue toward Karve Nagar in the evening. Three rooms, three completely different acoustics and energies. Divya does not bring the same voice to all of them. The home haldi gets a soft, family-led tone. The pheras get respect and stillness. The reception gets the energy a Pune family actually wants on a weekend night.
Karve Road traffic on Saturday evenings is its own challenge. The baraat can be 40 minutes late even when the groom’s family lives in Erandwane. Divya does not fill the wait with games or stand-up. She picks two relatives, asks them to share one short story about the bride or groom on the mic, and the wait becomes a memory the family ends up rewatching on the wedding video for years.
Captured Moments,
Timeless Memories
Events, photography & videography — every moment beautifully documented.
Three things that
matter to Kothrud families.
Three things earned the hard way.
Literary Marathi the elders use at home
Not television Marathi. Not memorised. The version of the language Kothrud families speak around their own dinner table. The elders feel it immediately and the room follows.
Mandap discipline
Divya does not talk through the chants. Does not announce the Antarpat while the Antarpat is happening. The Guruji leads, the family witnesses, the anchor stays out of the moment.
No WhatsApp forwards on the mic
The humour comes from a call with the family before the wedding. The cousin’s actual nickname, the aunt’s actual sangeet song from 1985. Kothrud rooms can smell a forwarded shayari before the third line.

What Kothrud couples
ask before they book us
Straight answers, no polish.
Yes. Kothrud’s older families have written books, taught Marathi at school, edited Marathi newspapers. The language has to be clean. Divya’s Marathi holds up to that ear. The Mangalashtak announcements, the introductions, the closing thanks, all of it in the version of Marathi the family actually uses at home.
The traditional Mangal Karyalayas along DP Road, the larger halls and lawns off Paud Road, and the apartment community spaces in Mayur Colony for smaller functions. She has also worked the Pride Hotel and the larger banquets toward Karve Nagar that Kothrud families book for the reception.
Yes. Divya keeps the Kothrud side’s literary Marathi standard intact while still making the in-laws feel addressed in English or Hindi. The two sides do not feel like they are at different weddings. The Marathi side does not feel like the celebration was watered down for the in-laws.
Karve Road traffic on a Saturday evening can push a baraat back by 40 minutes easily. Divya does not fill the wait with stand-up. She picks two senior relatives and asks them to share one short story about the bride or groom on the mic. The wait becomes the part of the wedding the family talks about later.
Two to three months out is the right window. Kothrud families tend to book early and the popular DP Road and Paud Road halls fill up quickly during muhurat dates. A short call confirms availability and a 50 percent advance locks the date.
