Beautiful Sikh wedding photography in Coventry

Coventry is a Midlands city with a large South Asian community and many banqueting halls. Your celebration in Foleshill, Earlsdon and Bedworth is in experienced hands, from the milni to the doli. From the darbar sahib to the reception floor, we photograph the whole day with a calm, familiar presence.

We photograph the small moments as carefully as the grand ones, the choora and kaleere as well as the four laavan. We balance documentary coverage with a few quiet portraits, so your album holds both the reverence of the darbar sahib and the energy of the bhangra. We photograph with warmth and respect, mindful of the meaning behind each shabad the ragis sing.

Wherever your venues are across Coventry and the West Midlands, we plan the route and the early gurdwara timings in advance. Coventry is a Midlands city with a large South Asian community and many banqueting halls. We also photograph in nearby Wolverhampton and Solihull. Local Sikh wedding venues we know near Coventry include Windmill Village Hotel, Royal Court Hotel and Coombe Abbey.

Coventry was UK City of Culture 2021 and has a large, long established South Asian community around Foleshill. Coventry railway station sits on the West Coast Main Line, and the city is ringed by the M6, M69 and M45. We often take couples to Coventry War Memorial Park and the grounds of the Charterhouse for a few quiet portraits, and Coventry Cathedral, with its preserved medieval ruins beside the modern Basil Spence cathedral is a lovely backdrop nearby.

Every tradition

Honouring every Sikh custom

As the ragis sing each laav, the couple walk slowly around the Guru Granth Sahib, and we photograph it quietly from the side. The exchange of garlands and the joy of the sangat around the couple are moments we love to photograph. We photograph the choora and kaleere given to the bride, and the quiet blessings of her elders.

The kaleere tied to the bride's choora carry their own meaning, and we photograph the ritual with care. From the first event to the last, we tell the full story of the celebration. We photograph the chunni ceremony and the giving of the choora, and the emotion that comes with them.

The whole celebration

From the milni to the reception

Some couples keep an elaborate sequence of events; others a simpler one, and we shape coverage to yours. Tell us which events matter most and we will build the coverage around them.

We stay through the evening to capture the reception, from the grand entrance to the last dance. The wedding day itself is a journey, from the morning milni and the kirtan to the laavan and the doli.

Why choose us

A Sikh wedding photographer covering Coventry

We bring the steadiness that only comes from photographing the Anand Karaj for twenty-five years. With twenty-five years and over a thousand weddings behind us, nothing about an Anand Karaj surprises us.

We are London-based but rarely in London; much of our work takes us to the gurdwaras and jaggo nights of the Midlands. We photograph Sikh weddings throughout the Midlands, and the gurdwaras around Coventry are firmly within the area we cover.
