Serving Croxley Green

Capturing Asian Weddings in Croxley Green and Hertfordshire

Croxley Green is a village beside the Chess and Gade valleys. Families throughout Rickmansworth, Watford and Sarratt bring us into their gurdwaras, mosques and banqueting halls, and we treat each setting with the respect it is due. At a Sikh wedding the exchange of garlands and the palla placed in the couple's hands begin the Anand Karaj, and we follow from the very first hymn.

We photograph the elders and the children as closely as the couple, because a wedding is the whole family gathered, not just the two people at the centre. We plan our movements so the couple never feels managed, staying near enough to catch everything and far enough to let the day belong to you. We capture the details too, the flowers, the jewellery, the mandap and the mehndi, that make your day yours.

Whether your celebration keeps to Croxley Green or spreads across Hertfordshire, we plan the day around your venues. Croxley Green is a village beside the Chess and Gade valleys, and we know it well, as we do neighbouring Sarratt and Knebworth. Croxley Green and the towns around it offer venues such as The Waterside Venue, The Grove and Moor Park Golf Club, all familiar to us.

Croxley Green is a Hertfordshire village beside the Chess and Gade valleys, arranged around one of the longest village greens in England. Croxley station sits on the Watford branch of the London Underground Metropolitan line, between Watford and Moor Park. For portraits away from the celebration, Croxley Common Moor, a 39.5 hectare Site of Special Scientific Interest and Local Nature Reserve works beautifully, and All Saints Church and the historic tree lined village green known as The Green adds a real sense of place.

Every tradition

From the mandap to the gurdwara and the nikah

We are ready for the giving of the sindoor and the tying of the mangalsutra at a Hindu ceremony. Whatever your family keeps, Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, Gujarati or Tamil, we follow the ritual closely and respectfully. As the sindoor is applied and the mangalsutra tied, a Hindu marriage is complete, and we are ready for both of those small, fast gestures.

The mehndi or henna night is intimate and detailed, and we photograph both the henna and the laughter around it. The pre-wedding events are unhurried and full of feeling, and we give the mehndi, the haldi and the sangeet the same attention as the wedding day itself. The mehndi evening is close and detailed, henna curling across the bride's hands while the room fills with song, and we photograph the artistry and the laughter alike.
