I had a great time photographing Prina and Dillan’s wedding events earlier this summer. The Pre Wed shoot was memorable as we were close to getting arrested for 6 violations during the Pre Wedding shoot! The Civil Wedding at Syon House was beautiful, Dillan dressed his green Smart car with a Top Hat and a bow tie…from a distance I thought some nutter was driving to Syon Park with a dustbin on their roof, then soon realised it was Dillan! knowing how Dillan is I expected him to do something creative and everyone loved the car! I remember the post Civil celebration at Prina’s house where there was a secret garden and a HUGE cupcake! I loved all of the little details Prina and Dillan had put into their wedding. Prina told me that her families grew marigolds for the big day, each coconut, beetle nut that was decorated was done by family members and all the efforts of the family was well worth it. Dillan even made a turban for his car that replicated the one he wore!

So Prina and Dillan’s Hindu wedding took place at the very grand Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Syon Park. The wedding ceremony was beautifully conducted by Vasudev Mehta, there were smiles all around, and the vidhai was a happy one which was the 1st time I’ve ever seen that. In the evening The wedding room was decorated with a Phantom of the Opera theme décor and everyone partied until late…I hope the Paris Saint-Germain Football Club who were staying there weren’t too disturbed that evening!

So, for your viewing pleasure, a few moments from Prina and Dillan’s Hindu wedding. I wish you all the best for the future.

  6. Hi Sanjay!

    What can we say .. Dillan and I were speechless and overwhelmed with happiness when we saw our photos!

    Thank you sooooo much for capturing every part of our wedding at the perfect moment and with such a natural creative eye.

    We are still debating which photos to put in the album – 6 months on from the wedding!

    I really felt we bonded on personal level and therefore you made it so easy and natural to work with you! Sorry we nearly got you arrested ;o)

    You have a gift Sanjay… thanks for sharing it with us!

    love
    Prina and Dillan V!
