Ariana Gardens is one of the most popular venues in Essex for Asian wedding celebrations. This was my third time revisiting the wonderful place. Having shot the bride’s Mehndi prior to the event, I was excited to meet her again.

First, the bride and I met at the Chigwell Hallmark Hotel, which offered spacious grounds for the bridal and family portrait shots prior to the event. After which we headed to Ariana Gardens to celebrate the marriage of the couple whose Nikah took place earlier that month.
