2011 was the year of the Royal Wedding in the UK but South Africa had their “own” Royal Wedding, the event of the year. Akshay & Smita’s wedding was the ultimate and greatest wedding we have seen. The guest list was endless, the atmosphere was mind blowing and the people were just amazing. We had the honor to be part of all 3 days to capture the moments of this wonderful wedding. We almost feel part of the family now since we spent so much time with their family and they made us feel so comfortable. There are a million things I can say about the wedding and how great it was but we are visual people and express ourselves in our films. There are 3 clips of this wonderful wedding, the actual wedding, hurdee ceremony & mendhi ceremony. Each day was special and a new experience for us. On the wedding day we revealed the music video we shot with the couple and it was a huge success, mainly because the couple were amazing actors. They did a brilliant job! The suppliers were all the top suppliers in the country which made us feel very special. Our friend from Cape Town Jean-Pierre Uys took their amazing photos, well he is a world class photographer and its always great working with him.

PS The music video was incredible and is considered by most, to be the highlight of the wedding!
Only a pleasure! You guys are amazing and it was the most fun we ever had. Indulging into all the rituals and traditions was so interesting! Glad you are happy, we love your clips as well! We were so excited at your wedding already because we knew we got the best shots ever….your DVD will be ready shortly and then you can see the entire event!
Brilliant!!! I’m awed at just how perfectly they’ve captured every detail, and then presented it in a way that I can only describe as magical … justice has been served!
Thank you for your kind words. We felt that we did not do justice in looking after you and your team – thank you for making yourselves at home and participating in the festivities. We thought the wedding experience was over but looking at these clips this afternoon brings back many of those once-in-a-lifetime memories. And viewing these clips every so often will, allow us to relive the wedding of Akshay & Smita forever. Thank for also capturing the joyous expressions of our guests which allow us to reflect on the fruits of our efforts. This is a job very well done thanks to your dedication & passion.
We hope these clips bring back happy memories for our guests and service providers alike.
The team at Hauke will have our support and recommendations always.
Thank you Anesh & Lalitha!
You treated us like family and my entire team can’t stop talking about how great you were to us! We are so happy you are enjoying the clips, there is much more to come as the DVD will be full of memories. From the day we met you guys when you were still busy renovating the house we knew this is going to be the most amazing wedding we have ever seen! Congratulations! You have done a great job! Before i forget, the food you guys made was the best we ever had! All the best! Team Hauke
