A (Lutyens) New Delhi Wedding Photography Story
Sarika and Avin were married recently, in a lovely, east-meets-west wedding in the heart of New Delhi. They both live in London and have spent most of their adult lives in UK. They first met at a party a few years ago, started to whatsapp each other until they hit the point of no return! And what a lovely couple they make…
Even though Sarika left India when she was a child, she visits often and has a great fascination for Lutyens Delhi – the history, the monuments, the planned city, the greenery and beauty of it. As Delhi Wedding Photographers, we love it! She decided that whenever she was to marry, it would be in New Delhi and that too the prettiest part of it. Avin, who hasn’t been to India more than once, apart from his own wedding trip, was more than happy to help Sarika’s dream (wedding) come true. So they had their wedding – spread across lovely locations like The Park, New Delhi, the Shanghri-La and a lovely bungalow on Ashoka Road.
To fit in with Sarika’s love for the history and monuments of Delhi, we did their pre-wedding shoot at the Humayun’s Tomb in Nizamuddin.
The official festivities kicked off with Sarika’s mehendi…
The mehendi festivities spilled over into the evening, with speeches and live folk music.
The next day began with Sarika’s haldi…
Which turned into a haldi plastering contest!
The evening involved some more speeches, videos and trips down memory lane, fun games, lots of dancing and Sarika-Avin masks for everyone!
The wedding itself was a lovely early evening affair at Ashoka Road…
The reception was held in true western style, with speeches, champagne, cake cutting, a first dance and then lots of dancing!
Here’s to one of the most beautiful weddings this season. We wish them all the happiness in the world…
