If you’re planning a De Vere Wokefield Estate wedding, you already know it has the scale for a big celebration. It’s the kind of venue that works extremely well for Asian weddings. On this wedding, the estate gave us space to move fast between moments while still creating calm pockets for portraits; especially valuable on a bright day where you want flattering light without losing time.

We were genuinely blessed with the weather. That warm August sunlight made everything feel vibrant, skin tones glowing, colours popping, and the venue looking its best.

Jaya and Arun looked stunning. Their presence was strong from the first frame: confident, joyful, completely locked in with each other. Because I’d already photographed them twice before, we were able to shoot portraits quickly and naturally; no awkwardness, no over-posing, just clean direction and authentic connection. One of the best parts of the day was the transition in style: after the Indian ceremony, Jaya and Arun changed into western outfits, with Arun in a sharp black tuxedo and Jaya in a beautiful fusion wedding dress that blended elegance with real personality.

The Indian ceremony was genuinely moving, beautiful, emotional, and full of the kind of moments you don’t stage: glances, hands held a little tighter, family reactions, and the atmosphere shifting as everyone felt the weight of what was happening.

For Indian wedding photography and videography, this is where experience matters: knowing what’s coming next, where to position without disrupting, and how to capture the key rituals while also catching the quiet reactions that make the story personal.

Between events, they had a violinist entertaining guests; an elegant touch that kept the energy high while giving everyone time to breathe and connect.

From the couple’s entrance, everything lifted; then the first dance, speeches that hit both heartfelt and hilarious, and a party that didn’t dip once. The DJ was playing banger after banger, and the dancefloor responded exactly how you want it to.

If you’re searching for an Asian wedding photographer and videographer who can cover a high-energy reception properly, this is where hybrid coverage shines: photography for the peak moments, video for the atmosphere, sound, movement, and the full party story.

If you’re planning a big Indian wedding in the UK, or specifically a De Vere Wokefield Estate wedding in Reading, I offer hybrid coverage that’s designed for multi-event days; civil ceremonies, pre-wedding shoots, and full wedding day photo + film.
