Questions
Saree draping FAQs
How many days before an event should I pre-pleat my saree?+
For premium silk and Kanjivaram, drop the saree at our studio 3–5 days before the event. Georgette and lightweight synthetics need 24–48 hours. This lets pleats set naturally without over-pressing.
Do you offer doorstep pickup and delivery in Chennai?+
Yes — free pickup and delivery within 5 km of our Ayapakkam studio, and low-cost doorstep service across Ambattur, Anna Nagar, T. Nagar, Adyar, Velachery, Redhills, Madhavaram, and Ramapuram.
How much does saree pre-pleating cost in Chennai?+
Studio pre-pleating starts at ₹499. Box-folded, tissue-wrapped delivery is ₹799. Bridal on-site draping starts at ₹1,499. Full pricing is listed on this page.
Can pre-pleated sarees be stored without ruining the folds?+
Yes. We return sarees box-folded in acid-free tissue. Keep flat, away from moisture, and unbox only 1 hour before wear so the pleats fall naturally.
Do you drape sarees at wedding venues and hotels?+
Yes — on-site bridal and guest draping at hotels, mandapams, and homes across Chennai. Book at least 5 days in advance for wedding-day slots.
