From Richmond to Newton

Richmond has a long-established South Asian community, with places of worship along No. 5 Road and families across Thompson, Seafair and East Richmond. Highway 91 makes Newton a fairly direct drive outside rush hour, which is why many Richmond clients come to us for bigger occasions and combine a few services in one trip.

  • Bridal mehndi from $250; guest mehndi from $45
  • Bridal HD makeup and hair from $450; bridesmaid and family makeup from $120 per person
  • Pre-stitched ready-to-wear saree from $65
  • Patiala suit from $75; kurta pajama from $75
  • Brows and upper lip from $15; express facial from $65

We speak English, Punjabi and Hindi, so the whole family can plan with us. WhatsApp photos of outfits or looks you like before you come, and we'll tell you what's possible and roughly what it costs.

Richmond weddings and functions

Many Richmond families celebrate at gurdwaras and temples in Richmond and at banquet halls across Richmond and Surrey. For the wedding morning, we can come to your home or venue. Travel to Richmond is quoted by location and time of day, and shown on your quote before you pay a deposit.

If you're getting ready in the studio, free plaza parking makes it easy for family to wait or drop you off. Book your trial four to eight weeks before the wedding, ideally on the same day as an outfit fitting.

Bridal mehndi takes about four hours and starts at $250. Guest mehndi at your event is $80 an hour, with travel quoted, so the bride's family and friends can be done at the same function.

Memberships and tailoring from Richmond

A membership pays off when you come regularly. For Richmond clients, that usually means people who work in Surrey or Delta, or visit family nearby. Book your threading visits ahead, pair them with facials, and you'll use the full value. If you're only coming in for occasions, pay per visit instead; we'll be honest about which is cheaper.

For tailoring, drop-offs are welcome without an appointment, or book a 15-minute pin-up to skip the wait. We write the price and ready date on your ticket, keep your measurements on file, and send WhatsApp updates, so you only drive over the bridge when your clothes are ready.

We're open Tuesday to Sunday, and until 8 pm on Thursdays and Fridays. If you work in Richmond, a weekday evening slot can be easier than a busy Saturday. Sarees dropped off before 11 am can have fall and pico done the same day ($40).

Neighbourhoods we see most from here: City Centre, Brighouse, Steveston, Thompson, Seafair, Broadmoor, East Richmond, Hamilton, No. 5 Road area.
