The Story Behind The Event Designer

Founded by Sahil Sachdeva and Nishita Aggarwal, The Event Designer is a luxury wedding planning and event design atelier creating bespoke celebrations across India and international destinations. For more than 13 years, our work has brought together thoughtful planning, creative direction, hospitality, production and execution for families, luxury brands, hospitality groups and leading names in fashion and entertainment. Our experience extends beyond weddings. We have collaborated with leading hospitality brands including Hyatt, Marriott, Taj, The Leela, Raffles and Sofitel, as well as fashion and lifestyle names including Pernia’s Pop-Up Shop, Rohit Bal, Manish Malhotra, Gaurav Gupta and Varun Bahl. Every collaboration has shaped the way we approach celebrations today: with an understanding that luxury is not simply about scale or extravagance. It is about experience, detail, discretion, design and the way people remember a moment.

Our Vision

Our mission is to create opulent and unforgettable wedding experiences that reflect the grandeur and richness of Indian culture.Join us as we continue to inspire and create unforgettable moments, making dream weddings a memory that lasts a lifetime.

Our Philosophy

We believe the most memorable celebrations are not defined simply by how much is spent, but by how thoughtfully every element comes together. A wedding should feel unmistakably personal. The destination, architecture, food, music, décor, rituals, hospitality, entertainment and even the smallest details should have a reason to be there. Our role is to bring those elements together into one cohesive experience, while giving families the confidence that every detail is being considered and every moment is being handled with care.

A Global Wedding Planning Atelier

Our work extends across India and international destinations, allowing us to create celebrations in some of the world’s most distinctive hotels, resorts, palaces, private estates and destination venues. From Rajasthan and other Indian wedding destinations to Dubai, Thailand, Bali, Europe, the Middle East and the United States, our approach remains consistent: understand the destination, understand the family and build an experience around both. International celebrations require more than creative design. They require careful coordination across venues, vendors, travel, hospitality, production, cultural requirements and local regulations. Our team brings these moving parts together into one seamless planning experience.

Founders of TED

The Event Designer was founded by Sahil Sachdeva and Nishita Aggarwal, and every wedding we plan still passes through both of them.

A destination wedding asks two different questions at once. The first is practical: which destination and venue suit the family, what the hotel will agree to, how guests will travel, and whether the budget and schedule will hold. The second is creative: how each function should look and feel, what makes the celebration personal, and what guests will remember long after they leave.

Sahil leads the first. He evaluates destinations and venues, negotiates with hotels and suppliers, structures the budget and oversees logistics and delivery on the ground. Nishita leads the second. Trained at NIFT, she directs the design, décor and styling of every function and shapes the guest experience from arrival to farewell.

They plan side by side rather than in sequence, so creative ideas are tested against what is possible early, and practical decisions are made with the experience in mind. For families, that means one team, one plan and one standard from the first conversation to the final event.

The Story Behind The Event Designer
Maestro of Bespoke Wedding Planning and Event Orchestration

Sahil Sachdeva co-founded The Event Designer and leads the planning, commercial and operational side of every wedding. He is usually the first detailed conversation a family has with us, helping them weigh destinations and venues against guest numbers, travel and budget. He negotiates with hotels and suppliers, structures the budget, and oversees logistics, production and the on-site team. His aim is simple: what is agreed in planning is what happens on the day.
