Planning and quotes
How does Ekatra plan an event?
In six stages: Discover, Concept, Plan, Coordinate, Execute and Experience. One team stays with the event from the first conversation to the final applause.
Does Ekatra do everything in-house?
Some parts are handled by Ekatra's own team and many come through trusted partners. All of them answer to the same plan, and to one point of contact.
Does Ekatra provide décor, or coordinate outside vendors?
Both are part of the plan. Décor is designed as one direction carried from the entrance to the last table, and some parts of an event are handled by Ekatra's own team while many come through trusted partners, all working to the same plan and one point of contact.
How can I request a quote for an event?
Send a few details through the enquiry form: the kind of event, an approximate date and location, the guest count if you know it, and how to reach you. Budget is discussed early, alongside dates and constraints.
What information helps when asking for a quote?
Who the event is for, what people should feel when they leave, and what absolutely cannot go wrong. Then the guest count, budget, dates and any constraints.
How early should I contact an event organiser?
As early as you can. Ekatra works the timeline backwards from the day itself, with a named owner for every task, so more lead time gives the plan more room.
What affects the cost of an event?
Mostly the brief: the guest count, the date, the venue, and how much of the event Ekatra takes on, from décor and technical production to artists and logistics.
How can I contact Ekatra Events & Media?
Through the enquiry form on the contact page, by phone on +91 99665 76644, on WhatsApp or by email at ekatraeventsandmedia@gmail.com.
On the day
Who runs the event on the day?
Ekatra's crew is on site from load-in to load-out, calling cues, solving problems early and keeping the schedule honest.
How does Ekatra keep an event on time?
With one run sheet, timed to the minute and shared by every vendor, artist and crew member. Cues are called on headset, so light, sound and stage change at the same moment.
What if it rains or something runs late?
Every event has a contingency plan for rain, delays and late arrivals, written before anyone needs it.
