A two-day Newari wedding in Patan

Two days, 300 guests and a tight budget. What the couple booked, what they skipped, and what they would change. [Sample story.]

[Sample story] The families wanted both ceremonies in Patan, so the couple booked the venue first and built everything else around it.

[Sample story] They compared three photographers by package contents, not by total price, and chose the team that included a second shooter for the groom-side ceremony.
