Luxurious Indian Destination Wedding in Portugal | Dina & Subhash | Tivoli Marina Vilamoura Algarv
Updated: Apr 18, 2023
Welcome to Dina & Subhash's Bollywood Bash Wedding in Portugal!
Being a UK Asian Wedding Photographer occasionally you have couples time to time who go big, and I mean really big! It was such a delight when Dina & Subhash inquired about their South-Asian Wedding. Although the wonderful couple were based in the UK, they wanted to have an international Indian Wedding across Europe and escape the cooler climates of England during the month of September, where they as well as their close hundred family and friends flew to Portugal down south for an amazing 3-day wedding bender including the Haldi, Sangeet, Wedding, Reception and to top it all off a Pool Party to wash down the hangover from the night before!
Meet Dina & Subhash the gorgeous couple on the morning of their sunny beach Haldi Ceremony!
Beach Haldi Ceremony:
ps - if you don't have either the groom's men ripping off the groom's shirt, wearing intellectual property underwear, or getting lifted and thrown into the ocean after the ceremony, you're not doing your Haldi right.
Sangeet @ Tivoli Marina Vilamoura
The Location/Set Up:
What better way to enjoy your sangeet with delicious canapés from the view of Tivoli Marina's 2nd floor outdoor bar area overlooking the resort riding into the sunset!
A sangeet isn't a sangeet without bollywood performances, a great DJ (@djsubz), an entertaining MC, couple photos and drinks/great food of course, but what was really beautiful aside from the couple and their own adorable moments, was the fact that the sangeet ranged from traditional cultural/religious rituals to fun activities/games encouraging both sides of the family to get to really know one another making it all the more special and intimate!

Here's a photo of Subhash doing a cheeky runner passed the brides maids to enter the Mandap
And here's a photo of a wardrobe malfunction showing what happens when you attempt to do that, whilst being tackled by a bunch of boys from the brides side.
The Dhol player was @tiagomanuelsoares one of the very few Dhol players in Portugal. He rocked the groom's entrance and got everyone involved, highly recommend!
