About Raw Group

What does Raw Group do?

Raw Group is a multi-service company working across four areas: events, photography, marketing, and food and corporate supplies. We plan and run events from concept to execution, shoot the photography and video, handle branding and marketing, and supply corporate catering and pantry requirements, all under one roof.

How experienced is the Raw Group team?

Raw Group is a new firm, but not a new team. Our founder has more than 8 years in event management and has delivered over 1,000 events, including a six-day wedding worth ₹1 crore, 10+ corporate inaugurations, 8+ product launches, and events attended by the Chief Minister and the Prime Minister.

Which cities does Raw Group serve?

Hyderabad, Vijayawada and Guntur, covering all areas of each city. We also travel to other locations across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and the rest of India, depending on the scale and timeline of the event.

What makes Raw Group different from other event management companies?

Four things:

  • A trained team, not a one-person operation
  • A site visit before every event, whatever the budget
  • Designs built around your venue, theme and budget, not picked from a catalogue
  • A dedicated manager and coordinators on the ground, so you can enjoy your own event
How many events has Raw Group completed?

Raw Group has completed 6 events since being established: 4 social and 2 corporate. Our team brings 8+ years of prior industry experience and a track record of 1,000+ events delivered before Raw Group was founded.

Is Raw Group a registered business?

Yes. We hold Udyam (MSME) registration, GST registration and a Labour License.

Pricing & payment

How much does corporate event management cost in Hyderabad?

Corporate events start from around ₹50,000. The final cost depends on the type and scale of event, number of attendees, venue, production, branding and technology requirements. We quote after understanding what you need and, where useful, visiting the venue.

How much does a birthday party organiser cost?

Birthday events start from around ₹15,000, depending on guest count, venue, theme, décor, entertainment and photography. We design a theme around your ideas rather than repeating a standard setup.

How much does wedding event management cost?

Wedding event management starts from approximately ₹2 lakhs. The final figure depends on guest count, venue, number of functions, décor, production and how much coordination you need, which is why we quote every wedding individually rather than selling a fixed package.

Tell us your date, venue and expected guest count and we'll come back with a proper quotation, usually the same day.

Do you offer fixed packages or customised pricing?

Customised. Every event is different, so we build the proposal around your requirements, budget, venue, guest profile and theme. Pricing stays flexible and transparent. We find the right combination of materials and production methods to get the best result within your budget.

How much advance payment is required to confirm a booking?

We generally ask for 80% on booking, with the remaining 20% on or before the event day. The exact schedule can vary with the size and duration of the event, and is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.

What information do you need to give me a quote?

Event type, date and timings, venue and location, expected guest count, number of functions, and your budget range. It also helps to know your theme or colour preferences, décor and stage requirements, sound and lighting needs, entertainment, photography, catering, and any branding requirements for corporate events.

Booking & process

How far in advance should I book?

At least 15 days for a regular event, so we have time to plan, visit the venue, design and coordinate. For weddings, large events and heavily customised work, start 2–4 months ahead. We do take short-notice events where our schedule allows.

What is your process, from first enquiry to event day?
  1. We understand your event type, date, venue, guest count and budget
  2. We discuss your vision in detail, theme, design, flow, entertainment, production
  3. We visit the venue and study space, layout, access and technical requirements
  4. Our team designs concepts built specifically around that venue and your brief
  5. You get a detailed proposal and a transparent quotation
  6. On confirmation we lock the payment schedule, vendors, timelines and designs
  7. We coordinate the venue, vendors, artists, caterers and photographers
  8. On the day a dedicated team runs setup, coordination and on-ground operations
  9. We quality-check every element against the approved plan
  10. After the event we manage wrap-up, dismantling and closure
Do you visit the venue before finalising the plan?

Yes, for every event, regardless of budget. We study the venue, available space, lighting, guest movement, entry and exit points, stage possibilities and technical requirements before we design anything.

How quickly do you respond to enquiries?

Usually within a few hours, and on the same day wherever possible.

What happens if something goes wrong on the event day?

Our managers and coordinators take ownership and resolve it without putting it on you. Because we visit the venue in advance and brief vendors early, most problems are spotted before they happen. When something unexpected does come up, a vendor delay, a technical fault, weather. We handle it in the background and keep the event on schedule.

How many team members will be at my event?

It depends on scale, guest count, venue and the services involved. We don't use a fixed team size. Every event gets a dedicated manager and coordinators, with additional specialists for production, décor, guest management and vendor coordination on larger events.

Do you provide catering and food for events?

Yes, through Raw Foods. We plan the menu around your guest count, cuisine preferences, service style, budget and dietary requirements, then coordinate the right food partners and manage quality, timing and presentation on the day.

Can I book photography without booking event management?

Yes. Raw Photography can be booked on its own, or as part of a full event package. Plenty of clients use us for one and not the other.

Do you handle décor and stage setup?

Yes, complete décor and stage production for weddings, celebrations, inaugurations and corporate events. We work across traditional, contemporary, luxury, minimal and fusion styles. Every element, from backdrop and florals to lighting and furniture, is designed around your venue, theme and budget.

Can you handle marketing for our event as well as running it?

Yes. Because events, photography and marketing sit in the same group, we can promote an event, cover it, and produce the content afterwards without you coordinating three separate suppliers.

Weddings

What types of weddings do you manage?

All of them, Hindu, Muslim, Christian, intercultural, interfaith and multicultural weddings. We work closely with the couple and both families to understand the customs, rituals and ceremonies, then plan each function around them.

Do you help find a wedding venue?

Yes. We shortlist venues based on your guest count, location, budget and concept, arrange site visits, assess layout and capacity, and coordinate with venue management on décor, catering, production and guest arrangements.

Can I book only some services instead of full wedding planning?

Yes. Some clients want the wedding managed end to end; others need only décor and stage setup, photography, catering, entertainment or event-day coordination. Either works.

What corporate events do you specialise in?

Meetings, conferences, product launches, company inaugurations, team-building, employee engagement, trade shows, exhibitions, award nights, annual days and dealer meets. We cover planning, venue coordination, branding, décor, AV production, entertainment, photography, guest management and on-ground execution.

Have you worked with IT companies and MNCs?

Our team has delivered events for more than 20 IT companies and 15 MNCs, along with projects for the Andhra Pradesh and Telangana governments, including Air Force and defence assignments. That experience means we are comfortable in environments where confidentiality, compliance and precise coordination matter. Client names can be shared on request where permitted.

What is the largest event you have managed?

Our team has managed corporate events for up to 1,200 attendees, and large-scale events with guest counts up to 10,000.

We take on a wide range of events and rarely rule a category out. We assess each enquiry on scope, location, timeline, budget and safety.
