Two beautiful weddings for Natasha & Jason at North Cadbury Court, with Smiling Tiger Studios

Published by Claire Gould on

2 days, 2 looks, 2 cultures – Natasha & Jason’s wedding is out of this world. I love it! I want to see ALL the Hindu weddings on our blog – I’m not sent nearly enough and they are BEAUTIFUL! Today’s gorgeous couple chose North Cadbury Court as their venue for the weekend, and Somerset wedding photographers and videographers Smiling Tiger Studios to capture both days of their wedding. The results are amazing – as always, I had far too many stunning photos to choose from so you’ll find more of my favourites on @englishweddingblog on instagram!

Wedding photographer review

Linus and Tom were brilliant from the get go! They captured both of our ceremonies beautifully, including the intricate details of our Hindu ceremony.

Your best wedding moment or memory

Walking into the ballroom for our wedding breakfast with the hundreds of balloons hanging across the ceiling was beautiful.

Venue name + review

North Cadbury Court – their reputation precedes them. Beautiful venue, amazing staff, and wedding planning. As it was dry hire we were able to tailor and creat our wedding exactly to how we wanted to. From the styles of both ceremonies to ordering our wines for both events. They took the stress and hassle away from us and made our guests feel welcomed and taken care of.

We had two ceremonies. A traditional Hindu Bengali wedding, where ceremonial head pieces are worn by the bride and groom. Followed by civil ceremony the next day.

Cake Design by Holly. Communicated with us throughout the planning and made a beautiful wedding cake. Best flavour .. raspberry and elderflower, delicious!

Any crafty projects or homemade styling touches?

Creative Collections brought our idea to life to fill the ballon ceiling with balloons for the wedding breakfast and were able to source sustainable balloons.

Thanks for sharing this one Claire. Jason and Natasha’s 2 day wedding was such a highlight for us. The first time we had seen such regional traditions with the carved crowns and then we had the western civil ceremony the following day. Best of both worlds for us photographically, and only topped by the great crowd of family & friends!

It strikes me more and more often that wedding blogs are ALL about the pretty. We're doing weddings a disservice....
