Parties + Events
Jaipur, Jodhpur and much of Rajasthan provides an incomparable backdrop for spectacular celebrations for 2 for 200 or for 2000.
With amazing forts, dramatic ramparts, romantic palaces, rich musical and tribal dance traditions, a penchant for extravagance, a ravishing sense of decoration, an abundance of artists and artisans, an innate love of flowers, music, fireworks, access to caparisoned elephants, dancing horses, astounding tents, luscious fabrics, regal cuisine prepared to royal recipes, it is hard to imagine anywhere else on earth where it might be possible to arrange celebrations so lavish, that would cost a kings ransom elsewhere.
We have arranged spectacularly memorable events for very small intimate groups to rather grand affairs, interludes for intimate couples to special birthdays and large corporate events. No matter how simple or lavish, no detail is left unturned, no fantasy unfulfilled.
Moreover we can create your own personalised party web address as well as communicate discreetly with your guest list via those pages.
Most recently, two Sydney girlfriends invited well over one hundred guests to join them in celebrating a significant birthday. Guests travelled from Melbourne, Sydney, Hong Kong, New York, London and beyond for a grand extended weekend redolent of the last days of the Raj. Themed in pink and orange, guests revelled in a grand dinner as well as a super elephnat polo lunch in the countryside.
Beyond the extensive party planning and Event Management, Art of Living also took great pleasure in arranging pre and post touring for many guests.

Dear Marieke,
I think with your help we pulled off the party of the century.
Thank you so much for a wonderful two days of magic in Jaipur which exceeded my wildest expectations in every way. I enjoyed every minute of it, and just adored watching the faces of everyone there who were equally enthralled. To bring people that far and see their excitement was just pure joy.
The combined effect of the beautifully painted elephants, the dignified camels, the whirling dancers, the spectacular fireworks and those amazing ‘palanquins’ was just too spoiling.
The evening was only equalled by the elephant polo the next day.
Thank you thank you thank you for helping to organize a truly memorable weekend of enjoyment and one that I will remember with great affection.
With love
Vicki (Sydney)

Dear Marieke,
I thought I must just send you a quick email to thank you for EVERYTHING you did towards Di and Vicky's party in Jaipur. It can't have been easy for you to organise such a brilliant event from the other side of the world -........
As far as Fred and I were concerned, we arrived in Jaipur to find a wonderful hotel room, a wonderful excursion organised to the Amber Fort, followed by a delicious lunch - and then, of course, the party to end all parties. The Elephant Polo on the Sunday was something we shall never forget. The whole w/e was a triumph and we certainly adored every minute. We are now re-living it all through hundreds of photographs.
THANK YOU for organising such a fantastic party. It was very good to meet you finally, after all the email communication, and I hope you are now having a well earned rest!
Best wishes from us both
Laura (United Kingdom)
