the full blend
a curated south asian wedding vendor marketplace, from zero.
brewed from scratch
mehfil means "a gathering." every great gathering starts with someone caring enough to get the details right. i started mehfil co. because i was a bride who couldn't find her vendors. 3,000+ manually curated vendors later, it's a marketplace helping south asian and muslim couples discover the best wedding vendors, region by region.

the strong stuff
from a google sheet to a full-stack marketplace. the numbers, the mechanics, and what's next.
South Asian weddings are sprawling, multi-region, often multi-week affairs. The vendor landscape is enormous and largely uncatalogued. I built the curated layer: a hand-vetted vendor directory across 15+ regional markets with a tiered monetization model, branded content system, and self-serve vendor portal.
From a Google Sheet to a full-stack marketplace with VIP/Premium tiers, automated vendor onboarding, and a brand system that vendors actively want to be featured in.
Building out Mehfil Co.'s vendor-facing strategy arm, helping South Asian wedding vendors evaluate their pricing, understand their local competitive landscape, and position themselves more effectively to reach couples planning culturally rooted celebrations.
