Nikkita Mulchandani: Dream Wedding Planner 16/01/2017 1:49 pm Sunetra Senior The Meridian Grand is a dazzlingly transformative London events venue, catering primarily to weddings, whose chief conceptualiser and Managing Director, Mulchandani, is of an aptly ambitious and adaptive mind. The young businesswoman graduated from Warwick University, flirting first with the idea of fashion before moving into the world of advertising and later coming to realise a one-of-a-kind North London structure: “The modern dream, of course, is to be able to work for yourself, and having garnered plenty of commercial experience by my late twenties, it felt exactly the right time to invest in this spectacular project with my entrepreneurial father. The successful owner of a Cash and Carry, he had discovered that many potential customers were struggling to locate a wedding or functions venue that satisfied both the luxurious taste of central London, and the accessibility of where they lived – thus the Meridian Grand was born. I embraced the chance to contribute an unrestricted creativity, growing alongside my business skills, and it certainly helped that I was getting married! It made the final concept very authentic and timely and personal.”
