Explore Wedding PhotographyThe functions before the wedding, in Lohegaon — usually squeezed into consecutive days so that guests who travelled can attend all of them.
Three functions, no gaps
When guests are travelling in, the functions compress. Three occasions that once had breathing room between them now happen in three days.
That is harder on everyone, including the coverage. There is no recovery day, no chance to reset between functions, and no opportunity to photograph something missed on the haldi during a quiet afternoon before the mehendi — because there is no quiet afternoon.
Planning them as a single block rather than three bookings is the only sensible response. One schedule, one set of movements, and a clear sense of which function gets the emphasis if two of them overlap at the edges, as they usually do.
The three still break in three different ways: haldi is bright and messy, mehendi is hours of stillness with a few minutes that matter, sangeet is dark and loud. Compressed together those differences get sharper, not easier.

Compressed functions also mean the coverage cannot borrow from the following day. Anything missed at the haldi is missed.
That argues for covering the parts that only happen once first, and treating the repeatable moments as the flexible ones.
It is a small reordering and it makes a considerable difference across three consecutive days.
Getting ready
Send all three dates together. Consecutive functions are planned as one block rather than three bookings.
For haldi, tell guests to wear something they do not mind ruining.
For mehendi, allow a few minutes at the end for the hands before anything smudges.
Planning it
Whether they run consecutively, which they usually do when guests are travelling.
Where each one happens.
And which matters most, since two frequently overlap at the edges.

How the session itself works is covered in full on the main haldi, mehendi & sangeet photography page.
Then they are planned as one block rather than three bookings. One schedule and one set of movements works far better than treating them separately.
Normal, and it photographs well — everyone is close together, which is the point of the function.
Handled by working with the lighting rather than against it. Stage light is dramatic and using it makes the photographs look like the evening looked.

Yes. Tell us which.
Yes, and it is worth a few minutes once finished.
Yes. Send both addresses with timings.
Send us the date and what you have in mind, and you get a clear quote for the coverage you actually need.
Confirmed in writing at booking rather than left open, which matters more when the date could not move.
Tell us at booking if it matters and we will prioritise a small set.
Yes, with travel agreed upfront before anything is booked.
Yes, and on a fixed date we would encourage it. A short conversation beforehand is what makes an immovable booking work.
We will tell you immediately rather than holding a tentative slot, so you have time to find an alternative.
Regularly. Ask rather than assuming it is too late — we would rather tell you honestly what is open.
The plan yes, the date rarely. Tell us what has changed and we will adapt the coverage around it.
Consecutive functions are planned far better as a block than one at a time.
