Sikh wedding photography in Exeter

Exeter is a Devon cathedral city with country venues. We photograph Sikh weddings across Devon, including Topsham, Exmouth and Crediton, at gurdwaras, banqueting halls and marquees. We cover the whole of the South West, and Exeter and the towns around it are well known to us.

We are calm and unhurried, gathering the whole story of the Anand Karaj without ever getting in the way. We are a reassuring, familiar presence in the gurdwara, so the sangat relax and the day flows naturally. We document each event as it happens, from the morning milni to the langar, so your gallery feels true to the day.

We travel throughout Devon for Anand Karaj ceremonies, and Exeter, a Devon cathedral city with country venues, is one we know well. We also photograph in nearby Plymouth and Cardiff. Local Sikh wedding venues we know near Exeter include Pynes House, Rockbeare Manor and Exeter Golf and Country Club.

Exeter is a Devon cathedral city with a historic centre, a medieval cathedral, and a lively quayside on the River Exe. Exeter St Davids railway station is the city's principal station, with Exeter Central sitting closer to the city centre below Northernhay Gardens. For relaxed couple photographs, we like Northernhay Gardens, historic public gardens near the city centre, and Exeter Cathedral in the heart of the city gives the day a strong sense of Exeter.

Every tradition

Honouring every Sikh custom

We are ready for the palla, when the bride's father places the sash in the couple's hands before the laavan. As the ragis sing each laav, the couple walk slowly around the Guru Granth Sahib, and we photograph it quietly from the side. We are mindful of gurdwara etiquette throughout, never turning our back to the Guru Granth Sahib.

The jaggo night is an evening of music, dancing and pots lit with candles, and we capture all of its energy. We capture the lively milni as the two families meet, with the garlands, the dhol and the embraces. We photograph the chunni ceremony and the giving of the choora, and the emotion that comes with them.

The whole celebration

From milni to doli

The days before the wedding often hold the most relaxed, candid moments of the whole celebration. Some couples keep an elaborate sequence of events; others a simpler one, and we shape coverage to yours.

We keep the day flowing, moving smoothly between the ceremony, the langar, the family photos and the reception. We stay through the evening to capture the reception, from the grand entrance to the last dance.
