MODERN HINDU WEDDING PRIEST

Tie the knot in a way that's authentic to you
INTENTION OVER TRADITION
WEDDINGS FOR MODERN & MIXED-CULTURE COUPLES
In 2022 I married the love of my life, Sophie, in a Hindu ceremony.
Although our traditional priest did a wonderful job, there were some aspects that didn't feel fully true to us. I remember feeling like a bit of an impostor - hoping he would turn a blind eye to me not being a 'traditional Hindu', and Sophie being White British.
Now as a pandit myself, I believe you shouldn't have to pretend to be something you're not to have a cultural ceremony.
Instead, it's about hearing what the rituals mean to you and celebrating that - whether that's honouring your family's roots, creating a deeper sense of spiritual connection as a couple, or sharing your heritage with family and friends from other backgrounds.
A more spiritual approach, valuing intention over tradition, while still respecting the religious foundations.
MODERN HINDU, JAIN & FUSION WEDDINGS
YOUR WEDDING WITH PANDIT PRASH
TRANSPARENT PRICING
Feb 2026 Update: All 5 'founding couple' spots have now been booked. However, I'm continuing to offer 2026 couples an optional pre-wedding rehearsal at no extra cost.
My ceremony fee for 2026 is £1,200.
This includes a 1 hour planning consultation to map out your ceremony end-to-end, typically 3 months before your wedding day.
Any required travel and accommodation is passed on at-cost or at the HMRC mileage rate (45p / mile).
PERSONALISED
Your wedding ceremony should feel as unique as you are, reflecting your cultural nuances and values as a couple. Through remote or in-person consultations, with the option of including family members, we'll craft a ceremony that feels authentic to you. This may include shortening the overall ceremony length, integrating Western / fusion elements, or customising certain Hindu rituals - such as reframing the kanyadaan ('giving away of the bride').
INCLUSIVE
As your Indian wedding pandit, my role is to guide your guests on a journey through understanding your cultural heritage. All of my weddings are led in English, with each ritual explained in terms of underlying meaning as well as any personal significance to you. For mixed-culture couples, my starting approach is to wholeheartedly celebrate the coming together of your cultures as an intentional part of the ceremony.
FUN
Your wedding day is a celebration! The two of you, along with your loved ones celebrating with you, should enjoy the ceremony as much as any other part of your wedding - for me, that means ensuring every single person feels involved, engaged and like they're actively participating. As your pandit, I'll help to take your guests on an emotional journey - from the gravity of the spiritual rituals to the sheer joy of the cultural games.
ENGLISH SPEAKING HINDU PRIEST
ABOUT ME
CO-OWNER
MY BACKGROUND
After 3 years working in the wedding industry, co-running my wife Sophie's wedding veil business, I'm so excited to be working even more closely with couples as a Hindu wedding priest.
Growing up in a non-traditional Brahmin family in North West London, Hinduism played a big part in my upbringing in the form of cultural celebrations and family gatherings centred around kathas/poojas.
In recent years, spirituality has become a central and ever-present part of my life - helping me to find creative flow, deeply connect with others, and manage my wellbeing.
While I'm early in my journey as a pandit, I've always loved public speaking and have lots of experience doing so within the corporate world - and on stage!
At home, I'm a self-confessed romantic, and am always trying to think of new ways to make Sophie smile.
