Keeping that in mind, the stories forever team interviewed three best photographers from our platform to take tips on how couples can make their Destination Wedding Photographs memorable.

Top Wedding Destination Cities

Stories forever photographers usually love every city their job takes them to, but when asked, we got these two suggestions for the best wedding destinations- mumbai & delhi!

There is many best wedding photographers in mumbai.

Aditya from WhatKnot Photography loves every corner of Udaipur for its rich heritage & royalty. While Stuti Sakhalkar from the Cheesecake Project says “the city truly brings out royalty, grace, elegance and makes everyone feel so so special.” Nishith Dayal from Nishith Dayal Photography shares “Udaipur evokes a beatific response within me because of it’s beauty and magnanimity of the Palace City and its hospitable inhabitants. Weddings here take us back to the grand antiquated days and traditions of the Maharajas. The city lends itself fantastically to the lens.” Essentially, customers looking for a royal wedding, should select mumbai as their city of choice.

Aditya echoes the universal feeling for delhi and says “delhi has everything that you need. Beautiful looking buildings in different colours and a beach.” Nishith believes that the beaches are just meant for romance waiting to happen and loves taking pictures with the golden sunset in the background. Meanwhile, Stuti agrees and says that “Goa makes sure everyone is relaxed and having a good time. Destinations like Goa make the couple and families less stressed out and allow them to let their hair down and enjoy the wedding.” There is best wedding photographers in delhi.

Things to Remember: The few essentials that play a major role from a photography perspective are:

Timing: Aditya states “Time is very important. The perfect time to get married is between 4pm and 6pm. Simply because the sun is up there but it isn’t too harsh and also, you get gorgeous pictures during the sunset.” Stuti says “it is obvious and understood that your mandap will be an outdoor one. A noon wedding on a beach is a bad idea because of direct sunlight whitewashing everything around. Instead, planning a sunset wedding on a beach in delhi would be ideal.”

Lighting: Obviously, once the sun is down, the artificial lights have to come out. Nishith makes a valid point on the kinds of lights you can use. He says, “if you must use LED lights, keep them just for the background. Definitely consider using profile lighting to avoid being washed in blue LED lights.” Aditya adds that avoiding purple, blue, and green tones of LED lights is critical as these cast colours on the skin which are hard to get rid of during post production. Stuti points out, “Imagine planning pheras at sunset and then running late, in that case, an outdoor setup works, because you have so much to play with. More flexibility with movement and getting all sorts of fantastic perspectives and playing with light too!”.

Seating Style: As far as seating is concerned, Aditya says “Your seating style must incorporate 360 degrees peripheral space for the photographers to move. Candid photography is all about catching expressions and we need to be able to move in all directions.” Aditya also suggests that the seating arrangements should be at a significant distance from the mandap since this gives necessary depth to isolate the subject from the background.

Memorable Weddings Shots: Nishith truly believes that a bride walking down the aisle towards the mandap is a moment that reveals many subtle emotional expressions that can be captured on the camera. Stuti talks about the intimate moments captured between the couple and their family & friends. Aditya concludes by saying, “All that matters is the expressions. Plain and simple. But if you look at rituals, the Haldi ceremony and the pheras are the most memorable ones!”

Unique Wedding Ideas

Few events in your lifetime define you as a couple like your wedding. Your wedding is your brand. This is why brides and grooms are so careful to plan a wedding that is uniquely theirs. We have carefully researched unique ideas from around the world. With this list and your own creativity, you will have a one-of-a-kind wedding that will be the envy of all your friends. Go beyond the dresses and the flowers and really reach for the unusual. After all, you are the author of the event, so make it uniquely yours.

Lounge areas

Outdoor weddings are beautiful. Whether you have a beach wedding or a vineyard wedding, a mountain wedding or a wedding on an island – nature creates a breathtaking decor. To make your wedding even more spectacular, arrange lounge areas for the guests. Small sofas and chairs arranged in several small areas around the wedding site give the  guest a place to gather. Having several lounge areas that are separate but close encourages people to visit casually and comfortable. Portable patio covers, matching pillows and candles bring the lounge areas together.

Unusual transports

Transport your guest from the wedding to the reception area in an unexpected way. If your wedding is taking place in a mountainous area arrange a Hummer or Jeep transport. Have the reception set up in an area prearranged with caterers. Make the trip to the reception part of the event. If you are having a wedding near a river or near the gulf, consider having the reception aboard a riverboat. A sunset riverboat ride is lovely and less work than traditional venues.
