ABOUT DESI LANTERN :

Desi Lantern, a brand which has been initiated with the aim to provide bespoke services in the realm of wedding décor & event design. The brand designs, creates and customizes events with uniqueness beyond expectation. Following the mantra ‘why be ordinary when you can be extra-ordinary’ they design tirelessly to create experiences & environments special and unique for each of their clients. From weddings and birthday parties to announcements and baby showers, special anniversary celebrations and children's parties, every event they shape has been commended for being striking and inimitable. Varying from the dynamic youth of now to homemakers, design connoisseurs and corporate houses and brands, it caters to a wide array of customers with a varied spectrum of tastes and preferences, and a keen eye for aesthetics and design.

Behind the creation of Desi Lantern lies the hard work and determination of the power-packed entrepreneur partners Priti Agarwalla & Sunaina Agarwal. Together they walked the untraded path steering away from the ordinary to do what their hearts desired, which was simply to create and to innovate.The duo started off designing kid birthday parties and small gatherings under the brand name of “Little Do’s”. Buoyed by their initial success and sensing a lack of bespoke décor services in the city, they eventually forayed into wedding design and rechristened the company as ‘Desi Lantern’. Since then, the duo has been at the helm of setting designer décor trends for the city to follow and have become a household name in opulent wedding design. The minds at Desi Lantern work with all elements at hand by customizing the elements of each event’s surroundings and molding these elements into their customer’s vision with balance, color, light and texture. Before one’s eyes, one can witness the fabrication of their thoughts put into form & evolve into a spectacular award-winning presentation by Desi Lantern.As artists, their designs are truly unique. They strive to curate that have not been done before and love to put their own twist & touch on different styles.

Having been in the business for almost 7 years, Desi Lantern prides itself in ‘designing celebrations’ and creating magical and memorable moments for its esteemed clientele. They bring to the table a gamut of specialised services like couture weddings, quirky installations, exhibition décor, trousseau packing, event invitations, packaging and the likes.

The name itself speaks of the duo’s design aesthetic; ‘Desi’ and ‘Lantern’ describes the use of modern materials to create forms/themes relevant to Indian traditions & festivities. They love to play with floral, geometry, colours, glass, metal, fabrics and have a knack for clean and bold designs. Hence, in reality the brand is probably the only event design company in the city which upholds its promise to remain sacrosanct to creating & designing events, which are truly original.

Desi Lantern works closely with customers to provide a tailored event that meets each individual’s style, taste and expectations. Driven by a sense of passion and deep professionalism, they effectively and artistically cater to the distinct needs of their clientele ensuring that each piece of art or ornamentation included in the design space ingeniously adds to the theme of the occasion. From recreating a master chef- like set for a 6 year old’s birthday party to creating structural figures with flowers, dry materials and jewellery to installing a functional barrel for a wine-stomping session they make every décor theme look as authentic as possible.

With a penchant for minute details and exclusivity for each project they have moulded exhibitive spaces in popular Kolkata-based exhibitions like The Enchanted Garden, Fuss and Stylefile.

Themed as "WANDERLUST " , The Desi Lantern rightfully followed the theme and decorated each corner with equal attention ! I cant describe how the entire decor made me feel ! I felt like i was on a vacation for real !

The entire space was decorated with exclusive items from all over the world , handpicked by Preeti and Sunaina themselves !

All these beautiful vintage pieces that you can see, have been picked up by the dynamic duo from everywhere they have traveled to .

Coming to the most beautiful part of the fun-filled evening , the table spread was one of a kind , and i have hardly ever been to sucha gathering where the table and the food looks so beautiful !
