KAMAL PANDEY
KAMAL PANDEY
Kamal Pandey, a renowned Vaishnava priest comes highly recommended by myself and many others in the wedding industry. He is very sought after, so booking him early is advised. Kamal performs a ‘silent’ Hindu wedding ceremony where he recites the verses in Sanskrit with an explanation in English, Gujarati and also in Hindi if required at various stages of the ceremony. This allows the couple and the guests to understand the reasons for each part of the ceremony and allows everyone to be a witness to the marriage and give the due respect the spiritual ceremony.
PUROHIT RAVI SHARMA
PUROHIT RAVI SHARMA (R.G. BHATTACHARYA)
I always get excited when my couples engage Pandit Purohit-Ravi’s services as their priest, because I love how intricate & vibrant the ceremonies that he conducts are. Pandit Purohit-Ravi can facilitate ceremonies from various cultures both North & South Indian, Vedic, Pauranic & Vaishnava. Pandit Purohit-Ravi has immigrated from Trinidad & Tobago & although having lived in London for many years, he still carries the cool Caribbean accent & personality. Pandit Purohit-Ravi was the main Hindu priest during my own wedding 5 years ago & to this very day our friends & family still comment on how memorable, spiritual, well explained & thought provoking our wedding ceremony was.

THE PRETTY PARCEL CO.
Anita lives life through cooking, holidays and pretty parcels! When she was planning her own wedding, she was adamant on adding a personal touch to it, but everything out there seemed so “generic” & not so personal. She decided to add her on touches, after which she started ‘The Pretty Parcel Co.’ to share her creativity with other brides. ‘The Pretty Parcel Co.’ was not set up with the intention to make millions. It was set up to make memories.
