WHY KOUKI?

Kouki Indian Weddings excels in capturing the essence of Indian weddings, having photographed and filmed countless events over the years. Indian and South Asian weddings are rich in culture and vary significantly, each unique in its traditions and celebrations. We are honored to serve the Indian and Sikh communities in Auckland, documenting some of the most elaborate and stunning weddings.

Auckland's diversity also gives us the opportunity to witness and document numerous fusion weddings, where Indian brides marry Kiwi grooms or vice versa. We refer to these unions as a marriage of two worlds, and we cherish being part of different cultures and religions on the same day.

Our aim goes beyond merely recording traditions; we endeavor to create a personalized and authentic portrayal of your special day. It's your unique touches that make your wedding truly unforgettable. With our extensive knowledge of how the rituals will run, we ensure every moment is captured seamlessly. In fact, they call us the Indian Wedding Guru. As photographers, understanding and researching different cultural traditions before the wedding is crucial to our work, ensuring every moment is captured with the respect and attention it deserves.

We cover all types of Indian weddings, including Hindu, Sikh, and Muslim ceremonies. Through our experience photographing Gujarati, Tamil, and Punjabi weddings, we have gained a deep understanding of the various rituals and traditions unique to each type of Indian wedding.

As specialists in Indian wedding photography in the Auckland area, we are dedicated to capturing every significant moment, ensuring both the couple and their families are delighted with the wedding photos.

EMBRACING VIBRANT COLORS IN INDIAN WEDDINGS

We celebrate the preservation of rich cultural traditions, whether it's a Sangeet ceremony, Mehndi night, or Jaggo event. Our success lies in our ability to capture the vibrant colors that define these special moments. As experts in Indian wedding photography, we understand the importance of these colorful details and the significance of various rituals. This expertise allows us to authentically document the beauty and essence of your wedding.

CEREMONIES AT PRE-WEDDINGS

We relish immersing ourselves in the celebrations from the outset. Events such as Mehndi, Haldi (Pithi & Maiyan), Sangeet, Garba, Jaggo, Choora, Santak, Mosaru, Telwaan, Bhatwaan, Tialk, and Puja are perfect opportunities for us to connect with your family and friends. This allows us to capture their unique personalities and the shared joy of the occasion. As your loved ones grow accustomed to our presence, by the third day of your wedding, we naturally blend in as part of the family, ensuring we capture every heartfelt moment.

DETAILS & PREPARATION

We ensure that every intricate detail of your Indian wedding is beautifully captured, from the dupatta and Mangalsutra to the intricate mehndi designs. We photograph the ceremony venue before guests arrive, applying the same approach to reception ceremonies. By arriving before the guests, we incorporate the venue details, and we dedicate to capturing the bridal details.

The preparation phase is a special time when emotions heighten and close friends and family gather. It’s a chance to unwind and be yourself, surrounded by those who matter most. This meticulous attention to detail ensures that every significant element of your special day is preserved.

THE INDIAN WEDDING CEREMONY

Indian weddings are deeply traditional and formal, filled with a rich array of rituals. With our extensive knowledge and expertise in a diverse range of Indian wedding traditions, we’ll work closely with you to understand every detail of your ceremony. Together, we’ll plan your group and family photos, deciding whether to capture each guest or focus on immediate family and friends to ensure a smooth process.

After the family photos, we can seamlessly fit in the bridal portrait shoots. We’ll be there not only for the formal family portraits but also for the candid, joyous moments of blessings and well-wishes. These are the cherished memories that will light up your hearts and bring joy for a lifetime.

GRAND CELEBRATION: INDIAN WEDDING RECEPTION

The Indian wedding reception is the grand finale and an unforgettable celebration. It's a vibrant event filled with dazzling outfits, lively music, and joyous dancing. This is the moment for everyone to let loose and celebrate the union of two families with great food, heartfelt toasts, and energetic performances. At Kouki Indian Weddings, we capture the electrifying atmosphere and all the special moments, ensuring your reception memories are as spectacular as the event itself.

AUCKLAND INDIAN WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER

At our service, we provide videography services and create captivating highlight films that capture all the beautiful moments of your wedding day. Our package can be tailored to suit your preferences, including different durations of films, and we can also supply recordings of your ceremonies and speeches.

WHAT IS THE PRICING? HOW DOES IT WORK WITH MULTI DAYS EVENTS?

For multi-day weddings, the photography and videography coverage typically starts with selecting a package for the main ceremony day. The coverage options for the main day range from 8 hours for Photo & Video and 12 hours photo & video. You can choose a package that suits your needs best from the options

If you have additional events on different days, such as pre-wedding rituals, rehearsal dinners, or post-wedding celebrations, the coverage for those days is charged separately at an hourly rate. The hourly rate for these additional days is $650 per hour, with a minimum requirement of 2 consecutive hours.

It's important to note that the Kouki Weddings will only offer coverage for additional days once you have booked the main wedding day with us. This ensures that we can accommodate your needs and properly allocate resources for the multiple-day event.
