Niharika & Rippu here is your @alrewashayes sneak Niharika & Rippu here is your @alrewashayes sneak peek!⚡️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Honestly, one word…. WOW!! I can honestly say I’ve never done a wedding quite like this before! It was the most incredible day and straight into my top 10 weddings of all time!! Alrewas Hayes being the cherry on top, what a venue!! 📸 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There was the most epic entrance by Rippu, in his prized possession (his first car, modified for racing) accompanied by Dhol drummers, a bagpipe player, the groomsmen with smoke flares and finally the family dancing and singing in procession! It’s something I’ll never forget and I feel like I coveted it from all angles! I was shooting with my second photographer, flying the drone and we filmed some behind the scenes footage, more of that to come soon! 💯 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Fast forward to the ceremony, the sun was shinning as it always does on these two! Just over two hours of the most amazing rituals and games, I just loved it! ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I feel like over the last four events, I’ve really got to know you both so well and I honestly think of you as friends now! It’s been effortless to be around you and your positive energy radiates out for all to see! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As you know we took a lot of photos, so here’s the first sneak peek of the two days! Lots more to come!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Venue - @alrewashayes Photographer - @philipjamesphotography Decor - @vermillioneventspecialists Bridal outfits - @mongasuk & @frontierraasuk Priest - @jitensbhai Mua & Hair - @bhavita_makeupartist Ceremony - @platinum_sounds_events Florals - @flowersbynafisa Second photographer - @tommy_james_photography Piper - @christhepiperuk Dhol Drummers - @thedholunit Mehndi Artists - @mehndi.by.jas & @mendibymariam Catering - @fiveriversoutdoor Band - @californiawaiting_band Wedding jewelry - @thejewellerytrunk_ Wedding rings - @cheshires.jewellers ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #destinationweddingphotography #alrewashayeswedding #alrewashayes #bridetobe2026 #birminghamweddingphotographer #bridetobe2027 #bridalfashion #asianwedding #countryhousewedding #hinduwedding #realbrides #asianweddings #summerweddings #indianweddings #indianweddingdress #indianweddingdecor
K + J here is your @davenporthouse sneak peek!⚡️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve been sat here for a while trying to think about what to say about this wedding! Honestly just…. WOW!! 🔥 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We had secret recordings before the ceremony, a sax player during the bride walk down the aisle! (How cool is that??) live musicians throughout the day, the most vibrant colours, prosecco tower, champagne spraying and to top it off probably one of the best dance floors I’ve seen in ages, some serious bangers were being dropped in an awesome live DJ set!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Kim & Jordan, you two smashed it!! Being around you and your friends and family was amazing! Honestly the vibe was off the charts, such an incredible energy! Davenport House really made your wedding shine, by providing a stunning backdrop to the most perfect day! 💯 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve spent most of day going through the thousands of images trying to get this down to 20! There will be another post next week, as I just couldn’t decide! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have an incredible honeymoon you two, you fully deserve it and I can’t wait for you to see the photos! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here’s everyone who made this day possible - ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Venue - @davenporthouse Photographer - @philipjamesphotography Wedding gown - @maggiesotterodesigns Bridal boutique - @weddingbelles_4oaks Florist - @gingerlilybridgnorth Mua - @lucyjones.makeup Hair - @tashamariebridal Videographers - @williamlangfilms Shoes - @jimmychoo Suits - @houseofcavani Sax - @party__sax DJ - @djln___ Singer - @franchesquasings Wedding illustrator - @_angelicdrawings ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #destinationweddingphotography #davenporthouse #davenporthouseweddings #bridetobe2026 #ukweddingphotographer #bridetobe2027 #bridalfashion #weddingstory #countryhousewedding #barnwedding #realbrides #birminghammua #birminghamwedding #birminghamweddingphotographer #springwedding #westmidlandswedding #weddingdressideas #birminghamwedding #countryhouseweddingvenue #weddingveil #weddingdressinspiration #weddingdressinspo #weddingflowersinspiration #maggiesottero #jimmychoo #summerweddings #highendweddings #newlyengaged
