Weddings have always been grand affairs, but today the focus has shifted. The modern wedding breathes like a living organism, designed to feel intentional - moving through the body as much as it is admired through the eyes.

A wedding feels less like a spectacle and more like an atmosphere, and at the centre of this evolution is Envelop. Led by experience designer Jai Sharma, Envelop is reshaping how celebrations are created and remembered. Their approach is rooted in one belief: weddings are for the people inside them. In a culture that celebrates scale, Envelop weaves in soul.

Their latest project, Tanisha and Prakhar’s wedding, is a striking example.

In this celebration, guests shaped the narrative as much as the design itself. Every space was created to breathe, offering a visual touchpoint that invited curiosity and movement. At the centre of these touchpoints was a quiet thread of theatre, guiding the atmosphere with a sense of anticipation and subtle drama.

Wedding or Theatre?

This is Envelop’s guest-forward philosophy: experience becomes the defining element and memory becomes the lasting impression. The celebration unfolded through a series of crafted moments: aerial silk dancers drifting above the crowd, a live pianist and band to lift the energy, and interactive performers who transformed every corner into a scene worth pausing for.

Nothing was accidental. Every detail was considered, from the food that felt curated rather than catered to the tablescapes that framed each interaction. Even the floor-to-ceiling design choices shaped how guests moved, gathered, and lingered.

The Studio Behind the Soirée

Founded in 2020, Envelop brings together strategy, spatial storytelling and emotion to create transformative environments. The studio has delivered more than 200 projects across eight countries, spanning weddings, brand experiences, hospitality, immersive installations and original experiential properties such as The Dinner Show and The Winter Flea.

Each project begins with a story. Each space is designed to be felt and remembered. The studio draws inspiration from nostalgia, literature, architecture, music, travel and technology, shaping atmospheres that resonate long after the event ends.

Founder Jai Sharma’s journey began in engineering, continued through nightlife and hospitality, and culminated in a creative philosophy that blends intuition with precision. His work reflects a commitment to understanding how people experience a space from within. Memory, mood and emotional response guide his process as much as lighting, sound or material.

His instinct for sensory storytelling forms the core of Envelop’s design language. He builds with technical depth, dreams with artistic freedom and approaches each project with a deep awareness of human behaviour.
