Worried the food will run short, or that the Jain and veg guests will eat from the same pots as the chicken? We cook every ceremony from roka to reception out of our Ramgarh kitchen, with Pure Veg, Non-Veg and Jain kept on their own lines.
Pick a line and the dishes below that do not fit it are struck through. Separate kitchen lines: to be confirmed by Baljeet.
Scroll to walk the wedding week. Each stop shows the usual food, a rough guest range and the live counters that suit it. Guest ranges are only a guide from how these functions usually run.
The two families meet, the bride is given her chunni and the match is fixed. The food should feel warm and homely, not like a banquet.

Shagun goes from one family to the other: trays out, mithai boxes back. Most of the food here is packed and carried, then a Punjabi dinner.

Shagun boxes by the kiloAn afternoon that goes on for hours while hands dry. Food stays light and keeps coming, so nobody leaves the mehndi chair hungry.

Late and loud: the jaago pot goes round the lanes, then everyone dances past midnight. Hot food from the tandoor and tea that never runs out.

The baraat arrives, the elders embrace, and breakfast has to be hot on the minute. Nobody wants the milni held up by a late kitchen.

After the laavan or the pheras, a full lunch for everyone who came to bless the couple. Many Sikh families keep this lunch pure vegetarian.

The biggest spread of the week: starters carried round on trays, a long buffet, live counters and a dessert table.

Send your dates and rough guest count for each function and Baljeet will come back with a menu and a per-plate price for each one.
Plan my wedding menuA plate's price depends on how many dishes and counters you choose, your kitchen line, the guest count and the date. The card shows what each level of menu carries. Baljeet prices your exact menu on WhatsApp.
Working to a limited budget? Tell us the amount. We build the menu down to it, never the other way round.

100guestsMove the slider to your guest count and pick the time of day. You get a rough cooked quantity for the five things every Punjabi wedding plate carries.
An approximate guide only, in cooked weight, with no safety margin. Baljeet sets the real quantities for your menu.
Naan, lachha paratha and tandoori roti off the wall of the tandoor, hot to the plate.
Tikki, papdi, bhalla and golgappa. The counter guests crowd first at a mehndi.
Fried live in front of the guests and served straight into warm rabri.
Stuffed kulcha with chole and a pat of butter. A favourite at jaago and milni.
From the Non-Veg line only, on its own tandoor and its own counter.
For the long nights and the cold December receptions. Paan at the exit.
You should not have to hire five vendors to get food onto plates. This is the list of what usually travels with our kitchen team.
Every line here is to be confirmed by Baljeet for this preview.
Usually arranged by you or the venue: the hall or tent, tables and chairs, lights and power. Tell us your venue and we will say what we need there.
It depends on the kitchen line (Pure Veg, Non-Veg or Jain), the number of dishes and live counters, your guest count and the date. We do not publish a fixed rate. Send your menu idea and guest count and Baljeet will quote a per-plate price for each function.
Any of them or all of them: roka and chunni, sagan, mehndi and haldi, sangeet and jaago, the milni nashta, the Anand Karaj or phere lunch and the reception. Each function gets its own menu and its own quote.
Yes. Each diet is cooked on its own kitchen line with its own pots and its own counter, so Jain and vegetarian guests never eat from pots used for meat or for onion and garlic. (Separate lines: to be confirmed by Baljeet.)
Minimum guest count: from Baljeet. Small roka lunches and court-marriage dinners are welcome; write with your number and we will tell you straight away.
Cooks, counter chefs, service staff, chafing dishes, crockery and live counter setups usually come with the booking. The exact list, staff numbers and crockery type: from Baljeet.
As soon as your dates are fixed. The popular wedding dates in the winter season fill first, and an early booking also gives time for a proper menu discussion. Tasting before booking: from Baljeet.
Our first market is Panchkula, Chandigarh, Mohali and Zirakpur, and we also take weddings across Haryana, Punjab, Himachal and Delhi NCR. How travel and staff stay are charged: from Baljeet. See the areas we serve.
As a rough guide for a dinner: about 27 kg of dal, 54 kg of sabzi across the dishes, 27 kg of rice, 750 rotis and 36 kg of sweets, in cooked weight. Use the quantity guide on this page for your own numbers; Baljeet sets the final quantities.
Fill in what you know. It opens WhatsApp with your details written out, and Baljeet replies with a menu and per-plate price for each function.
Tell us how many guests you have and how much you can spend. Baljeet plans a full, proper menu around that amount. He says plainly what it covers, with no hidden extras, whether it’s a 40-guest path at home or a 600-guest wedding.
