Karnali Province · by Wedding Story Nepal, since 2014
Birendranagar, the capital of Karnali Province, holds its weddings in a green Surkhet valley that most of Nepal has never seen properly photographed — terraced hillsides, the Bulbule Lake park, and the ancient Kakrebihar ruins minutes from the city centre.
Professional wedding coverage is scarce in Karnali, and we are proud to bring the same team, equipment and editing standard here that we use in Kathmandu — with travel quoted honestly for the distance.
The city’s lakeside park — fountains, gardens and evening light for couple portraits.
Twelfth-century temple ruins on a forested hillock — the most distinctive pre-wedding backdrop in the mid-west.
Surkhet’s revered shakti shrine for ceremony blessings.
Birendranagar’s reception venues, covered with our full lighting setup.
Karnali weddings keep older hill traditions alive — deuda songs and dances, extended community feasts, and rituals that have faded elsewhere. Documenting them well is half the reason we take the long road to Surkhet gladly.
Birendranagar is a long day’s drive from Butwal via Kohalpur, or a flight to Surkhet airport; we plan an overnight stay and one transparent travel quote for the trip.
The same transparent, nationwide packages apply in Birendranagar: photography from NPR 25,000, photo + cinematic video combinations, and full multi-day luxury coverage up to NPR 200,000. Travel (where applicable) is quoted as a clear line item before you book.

Great work by the Wedding Story Nepal team. Truly professional.
The boys are very young, energetic, and effortful — very workaholic.
Amazing wedding photography. Highly recommend!
Wonderful experience with Wedding Story Nepal.
Yes — Karnali bookings are quoted with travel and stay included, and multi-event weeks make the trip very economical per event.
Kakrebihar’s ruins and Bulbule Taal are the two signature locations; the valley’s terraces add a third option in autumn.
The standard package range plus quoted travel; photo + video combined bookings are recommended to make the distance worthwhile.
