Chhavi was amazing!

My wedding sari was a bit heavier so I was worried it would look bulky, but with Chhavi's pre-ironing and pleating service, the sari looked very nice and sleek! The day of, Chhavi arrived even earlier than needed in order to ensure that there was no rush, and brought the sweetest, most positive energy. My mom, MIL, and I loved the way our saris turned out and could not recommend Chhavi enough!

Wonderful Wedding Attire Draping

I was so grateful to have Chhavi and her incredible draping skills for my wedding day! She provided so many helpful services on the day, from ironing and draping my mother’s and mother-in-law’s sarees, to also helping drape and pleat mine, my sister’s and my husband’s dupattas. She was a true professional and very skilled in her craft- I could not recommend her enough!

Book Chhavi for your Events!!

I booked Chhavi for me and my whole family on my wedding day that Includes my mother, My MIL and my Sister-in-Law. (First time wearing saree for both of them). My husband’s drape. She was amazing. We met before the wedding for ironing my saree plus other clothing items for the day of wedding and also to get an idea of what drape would look best on the wedding day and she did a great job. She was prompt, on time and prior to event gave clear timelines on how long each drape would take. My saree was heavy with intricate work but Chhavi made sure I feel my best walking, sitting and doing all the rituals and she was right. Carrying the saree felt like a breeze. Thank you so much Chhavi for being there and making me feel calm and comfortable!! Highly recommend her for all events!!

If you’re a petite bride, you need Chhavi!!!!

I still feel so grateful and lucky that I chose Chhavi to drape my wedding saree. As a petite bride (I’m 5’0”), I had always been disappointed with how sarees looked on me. Either they made me look much bigger than I am, or they just didn’t drape in a way that felt flattering. Since I wanted to wear a traditional Banarasi saree for my wedding, I was honestly nervous about how I would look and whether I’d feel comfortable wearing such a heavy saree for hours.

I found Chhavi on Instagram and instantly fell in love with her work. Seeing how beautifully she styled other petite brides gave me the confidence to reach out.

From our very first meeting, she was incredibly warm, professional, and took the time to explain everything in detail. I walked away feeling completely reassured that I was in the right hands.

On my wedding day, I couldn’t believe what I saw in the mirror. For the first time in my life, I truly fell in love with myself in a saree. She draped my 6-yard heavy Banarasi saree so beautifully that I felt elegant, confident, and, most importantly, comfortable throughout the day. She knew exactly how to style it to complement my petite frame.
Beyond her amazing talent, Chhavi is such a kind and encouraging person. She took so many beautiful photos of me and kept showering me with compliments, which made me feel even more special and confident on one of the biggest days of my life.
Thank you, Chhavi, for making my wedding day so memorable and beautiful. If you’re a petite bride wondering whether a saree will suit you, trust me you are in the best hands with her. I know exactly who I’ll be going to for all my future saree draping needs!

Fairy God Mother of Draping

As non-Indians, my mom and I were incredibly nervous about our outfits for my Indian wedding ceremony and Sangeet. We wanted to look beautiful, feel confident, and, most importantly, honor my husband's culture and traditions. Knowing how anxious we were, my husband encouraged us to hire a draper. At first, we thought it might be a little over the top, but Chhavi was truly a miracle worker.

Her professionalism, attention to detail, efficiency, incredible sense of style, and, above all, her warmth made such a difference in our getting-ready experience and in how beautiful and confident we felt throughout both events. My mom's saree was pleated and draped to perfection, and she felt absolutely gorgeous (and received so many compliments!). Chhavi also helped me style my lehenga, walking me through different ways to drape my dupatta and making sure I felt comfortable, heard, and beautiful.

I truly cannot recommend Chhavi enough. She is exceptionally talented, incredibly kind, and made me feel so well taken care of on such an important day. She also helped several of my family members and guests, making everyone feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful. If you're considering hiring her, do it—you'll be so glad you did.

Thank you Chhavi!

It was wonderful working with Chhavi for my bridal saree draping. She was highly responsive the week leading up to the wedding while we coordinated the drop-off and pick-up for pre-draping. She handled my bridal saree and madisar as well as my mom and sister's Iyer-style madisars. Her draping was deft, and both the saree and madisars stayed completely intact throughout the event. While my sister's madisar unfortunately ended up being draped the incorrect way, Chhavi's overall work was excellent. She brought wonderful energy to the room while we were getting ready, constantly hyping me up and making the experience special. She was the sweetest person to work with, and I would gladly recommend her services and work with her again.
