Janakpur is Nepal’s wedding city in the most literal sense — the legendary marriage of Ram and Sita is celebrated here every Vivaha Panchami, and the Janaki Mandir is one of the most breathtaking wedding backdrops anywhere in the country.
We photograph Maithil weddings in Janakpur with particular care for their artistic heritage: the kohbar paintings, the songs, and ritual details that make Mithila weddings unlike any other in Nepal.
The marble landmark of Mithila — ceremonies and portraits here are the reason many couples choose Janakpur.
The sacred ponds at dawn give still-water reflections for quiet couple portraits.
The historic quarter’s colour and texture suit documentary-style coverage.
Modern reception venues that host Janakpur’s biggest evenings.
Mithila weddings carry Nepal’s most distinctive wedding art tradition — kohbar murals, Maithili songs, and rituals across several days. We document the artwork and the ceremonies as carefully as the couple, because in Janakpur they are inseparable.
Janakpur is about a four-hour drive from Kathmandu or reachable by direct flight, and roughly seven hours from Butwal by road; we plan an overnight stay and quote it transparently.
The same transparent, nationwide packages apply in Janakpur: wedding collections from NPR 75,000, photo + cinematic video combinations, and full multi-day coverage across a range of NPR 75,000 - NPR 300,000. 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.
No official body ranks wedding photographers in Janakpur, so compare evidence rather than claims. Ask each photographer for two or three complete wedding galleries instead of highlights, check that they know the order of your rituals, ask who covers both families’ rituals and what happens if a camera fails, read their reviews on Google rather than only on their own website, and get the team, hours, edited-photo count and delivery dates in writing. Hold us to the same tests: Wedding Story Nepal has photographed 850+ weddings since 2014 and is rated 5.0 from 62 Google reviews.
Ceremonies and photography around the temple are possible with the temple’s permissions and etiquette observed — we handle timing around aarti and pilgrim hours.
Yes — kohbar, sindoor daan and the Maithil sequence differ from hill weddings, and our shot lists are built around them.
Extremely — Janakpur dates in Mangsir book out early. Reserve at least three months ahead for that window.
Tell us your dates — we’ll confirm availability, share full portfolios, and quote everything (including travel) transparently.
