Photography by Jessica Bevan Photography
You may recognise this couple and you wouldn't be wrong, Hema and Ajai met on our TV screens and now you are all invited to have a little look at their First Dates wedding! A wedding in Mallorca celebrating over three consecutive days with delicious dinners, pool parties, BBQ's and of course the main event! Choosing to wear traditional Indian clothes, the bride wore a gorgeous burgundy and gold wedding dress matching her groom who chose the same colour palette. Even with the weather slightly unpredictable and a little rain nothing could dampen everyone's spirits and the couple enjoyed an intimate first look before the main outdoor ceremony in front of their 120 guests!

What Made Our Day Unique

We loved that our wedding wasn't just one day. As we had our wedding in Mallorca, we were able to celebrate over 3 different days at the wedding venue. Friday night we had a small dinner and drinks with our immediate family, bridemaids and best men. Saturday was the main event of the wedding ceremony and reception. The final day on Sunday ended with a pool party bbq for all our wedding guests.

First Dates Wedding

Having met initially on the popular Channel 4 dating show, it's great that we can see the love story between these two gorgeous people continue at this First Dates wedding! A destination wedding at Hotel Es Lloquet with rustic decor, wooden signs, foliage bouquets and gold details - including the bride's amazing shoes which look great with her custom bridal gown!

Inspiration & Styling

We wanted to mix our Indian culture with the Spanish scenery. We opted to wear Indian clothes. We didn't want to go for the traditional red that Indian brides wore so we went for a burgundy and gold colour theme.
