Ghar Ki Shaadi: Wedding films for families who'd rather be dancing

See the work

It is not a wedding. It is ghar ki shaadi.

When someone in the family says it is ghar ki shaadi, everybody already knows what it means. Drop what you were doing. Show up early. Do more than anyone asked you to.

We shoot weddings on that setting. Not as vendors working through a shot list, but as the cousins who happen to own good cameras. We will notice the lehenga your mother spent four months choosing, the dance you rehearsed in the drawing room for three weeks, and the exact second your Nani starts crying.

And if nobody else can get Mausa Ji onto the dance floor, we take that on too.

A wedding, in the order it actually happens

Four parts of the day, each one an edit rather than a grid. Scroll sideways through any of them.

Before the wedding

A day out with just the two of you, months before anyone else arrives.

Getting ready

The quiet hour. Jewellery, mirrors, and one person's hands steadying another's.

The celebration

Varmaala, petals, chooda in the air, and Mausa Ji finally on the floor.

The two of them

Portraits, once the crowd has moved on to dinner.

What turns up, and what you get back

Booked as one wedding, one pre-wedding, or both. Pick both and we already know the two of you before the first function starts.

Pre-wedding

One day, one location, no relatives. We pick a place, we wait for the light, and you two get used to a camera being around.

Who comes

  • Cinematographer
  • Candid photographer
  • Drone

What you get

  • Every edited photo from the shoot
  • One pre-wedding album
  • One cinematic film, 5 to 7 minutes

Wedding

Every function, both sides if you want us there. Traditional coverage for the family album and cinematic coverage for the film you will actually rewatch.

Tell us about your dates

Two people, and they both turn up

Between advertising sets, feature films and festival documentaries, this is the pair who will be at your wedding. Not a team you meet on the day.

The things families ask us first

What do we actually get at the end?
For a wedding: a teaser, a full traditional film of two to three hours, a cinematic film of five to seven minutes, every edited photograph, and one album. For a pre-wedding shoot: every edited photograph, one album, and one cinematic film of five to seven minutes.
Can we book only the pre-wedding shoot?
Yes. Pre-wedding and wedding are separate bookings, and plenty of families take one without the other. If you take both, we get to know the two of you on a quiet day before the house fills up.
Whose side do you shoot from?
Groom's side, bride's side, or both. If the two families have different venues, tell us on the enquiry form and we will plan the crew around it.
Do you travel?
We are based in Mumbai and we travel for weddings. Much of our work so far has been in Jaipur and across Rajasthan. Tell us where your functions are and we will tell you straight away whether we can be there.
How does this start?
Fill in the enquiry form. It takes a couple of minutes and it means our first call is about your wedding rather than about basics. We will call you to confirm dates after we have read it.
Who is behind the camera on the day?
Naman and Tanya, plus the crew listed for whichever booking you pick. You will not meet a different team on the morning of the wedding.

Tell us about your wedding

It takes about two minutes. Names, a number, and which functions you want us at. We read it, then we call you.
