I used Elegant Affairs for my Mandap alone. I also used DJ Sharad for my wedding.
EA was pretty pricey but they had mandaps that I really liked and are definitely elegant.
This was mine.
cant get it to post but its in my album..sorry

the Elegant Affairs quote was about 6500 more than the quote i got from unique emporium (now stylish events) so i went with unique. i rented my table cloths from Linen Creations for $15 each and they were excellent. I'll try to post pics of my mandap and centerpieces. the cp's arent anything special but then again, they were kinda cheap...

Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread
I checked out your pictures -- I love the Venetian Yacht Club! I wanted to get married there but our guest list is too high for themI was going to ask you who did you're mendhi because it was comparable to the best I've seen -- and then in the pics, I see little Namisha. She's the best! How much are her rates? --she's so quick too!
I saw a glimpse of your mandap, I should go back to Stylish -- he does do an incredible job.
Any brides on here with actual pictures of House of Dipali's work?

i LOVED elegant affairs presentation and their work but they were out of my price range :(, i seriously considered booking them but in the end, i decided to stick with unique. your mandap is GORGEOUS, i don't think unique can really compare
