    How to Plan Your Meghalaya Destination Wedding

    Planning a destination wedding in Shillong is simpler than most couples expect. As Northeast India's NEITA-recognised hospitality brand, XTSY handles venue, stays, food, and coordination under one roof — so you deal with one team, not a dozen vendors.

    1. Pick your dates — Aim for October–April for clear skies and golden light. Lock dates 3-6 months ahead for the best Glass Suite and room availability.

    2. Choose your guest count — Our sweet spot is 20-100 guests. Tell us the number and we map the right ceremony space and on-site accommodation mix.

    3. Build your menu with TAB Bistro — Indian, Continental, Chinese, and Khasi specialties — fully customisable for veg, Jain, and dietary needs, served as plated dinners or live counters.

    4. Add décor, music & shoots — Floral and light décor, sound, and pre-wedding shoots across the glass suite, mountain terrace, and pine-forest trail.

    5. Leave the logistics to us — Airport transfers from Guwahati (2.5 hrs), guest check-in, day-of coordination, and an optional post-wedding honeymoon tour to Dawki and Cherrapunji.
