Real Wedding in Sri Lanka

We arranged a wedding for a couple last June in Sri Lanka. The couple live in the UK and wanted a small intimate Hindu wedding ceremony and reception in Sri Lanka for a small group of family and relatives. They also wanted to combine the wedding with a holiday and spent some time travelling around Sri Lanka.

We help to organise their wedding in Colombo at the Galle Face Hotel. They had an intimate Hindu ceremony under a marquee by the sea which was decorated with flowers. We had to move the location due to the heavy rain that day! The groom arrived at the ceremony on an elephant and was accompanied by traditional drummers and dancers. The ceremony then took place and was conducted by a Hindu priest. After the ceremony, the guests had soft drinks, cut the wedding cake and had group photos taken. Then then sat down to lunch on the terrace of the hotel.

They gave the following feedback:

“We had a fab time in Sri Lanka and a fantastic wedding, just like we wanted. We chose SSW, because they were more reliable and maintained excellent communication throughout the planning stages. Samantha’s knowledge was reassuring and the suggestions were brilliant. Everything went well, venue, planning, ceremony and the priest was great. We will definitely recommend your services to friends and family. Many thanks for a memorable day!”
