Requirements differ widely by region, community, language and the particular puja or sanskar being performed. GI.EVENTS helps you describe your tradition, ceremony and preferred language, then request suitable ritual support. Your family's own priest is always welcome, and availability, dakshina and arrangements are confirmed directly.

Common questions
Can the pandit help us choose an auspicious date?
Many families consult a pandit or astrologer for muhurat selection based on their own customs. If you would like this, mention it in your brief. Practices vary between families and traditions, and the guidance is given directly by the pandit you consult.
Who arranges the puja samagri?
Arrangements differ. Some pandits bring the samagri, others provide a list for the family to arrange, and sometimes the decorator handles mandap items. Clarifying this early avoids last-minute rushes. Details are confirmed directly with the pandit.
Pandit ji ki dakshina ke alawa safar ka kharcha kaise tay karein?
Pandit ji se apni parampara aur pooja ka samay pehle discuss kijiye. Dakshina kitni hai aur aane-jaane ka kharcha usmein shamil hai ya alag, yeh pehle poochh lijiye.
Can GI.EVENTS help find a pandit for our ceremony in another city?
On request, yes. GI.EVENTS facilitates events throughout India and can help you request ritual support for your ceremony and tradition in another city, subject to verification of local capacity. Your family's own priest is always welcome, and arrangements and dakshina are confirmed directly before the day.
