Following the Hindu ceremony Alison and Ash enjoyed a couple of nights in the fantastic Mercure St Paul’s Hotel and Spa in Sheffield before their Civil ceremony at Sheffield’s Town Hall.

I arrived in Sheffield in the morning and my timing couldn’t have been more perfect when Ash called me as I walked across the square opposite the hotel – see the photo below. The final day of celebration was a small family affair shared with immediate family. Once again Alison looked amazing and although the day was in stark contrast to the Hindu ceremony, there was still amazing attention to detail.

Although the weather wasn’t on our side the whole day was a fantastic montage of colour, fun and celebration. We had a wonderful time covering the wedding and were thrilled to join the rest of the guests for the wedding breakfast and speeches.

Below are a few of my favourite images. Check back tomorrow for the final instalment of images from the Civil ceremony.

Their English/Hindu wedding was over three days and included the Mehndi ceremony, the Hindu wedding ceremony and finally the civil wedding ceremony and in terms of photography it was a fantastic opportunity to document the complete process. In total I spent somewhere in the region of 18 hours shooting in addition to Julie’s 10 hours allowing us to capture some stunning images from the 3 days of events.

Due to the larger number of images I’m going to add a new set of favourites for the next two days.

Today’s post is the Mehndi ceremony which took place on the Thursday before the wedding. If you haven’t seen Henna applied by hand it’s an incredible skill and fantastic to photograph.

Below are a few of my favourites images. Check back tomorrow for images from the Hindu Ceremony.
