The Lanesborough Hotel Wedding Photographer – Roxana and Stuart’s day
As award-winning wedding photographers, we’re lucky enough to work at the most exclusive wedding venues and this was certainly the case when we returned to capture wedding photography at The Lanesborough London for Roxana and Stuart.
We first met these guys when we did a pre-wedding photoshoot with them in April 2022. Fast forward to 25th June 2022, their wedding day, and we find ourselves at the award-winning luxurious 5-star Lanesborough Hotel in Knightsbridge that sits on the doorstep of iconic Hyde Park.
This beautiful regency hotel was the perfect location for Roxana and Stuart’s classic and elegant wedding.
On the day we got there early so we could capture those all-important bridal prep images of Roxana as well as catch up with Stuart who was enjoying a glass of champagne with his groom’s party.
Roxana looked absolutely stunning in her Luna Novias dress that she bought at The Boutique and Co bridal boutique in London. The dress looked like it was made just for her, perfectly skimming her figure and giving her an amazing silhouette in all of our images. It had a subtle plunging neckline and elegant lace detailing on the bodice and the straps. Roxana looked so comfortable in her dress it seemed to fit her like a second skin. The makeup artist was Rosita Shafiee and the hair stylist was Svitsana Mitsu.

Stuart looked perfect beside her in a vintage Boland and Banks black tie.
These two pitched their look so perfectly to complement the regency splendour of The Lanesborough. And their guests didn’t let them down. Everybody was just so photogenic!
The wedding ceremony was held in The Belgravia. A stately and palatial room with soaring ceilings and towering windows with views across Hyde Park. Its walls and ceiling are intricately plastered in Wedgwood blue, soft pink and off-whites and it boasts stunning crystal chandeliers and a feature fireplace that Roxana and Stuart had decorated beautifully with flowers. The handiwork of the very talented Kellie from Twisted Tulip Designs.
After a beautiful ceremony, there was a fun confetti moment outside before everybody enjoyed a drinks and canapes reception. As guests happily mingled and were entertained by string quartet The Morganna Quartet, we got the chance to quickly whisk Roxana and Stuart away for a few minutes to get some great romantic portrait images of them. The image of them walking through Lanesborough’s stunning reception area is one of our favourites. They look like they just stepped out of the pages of Harpers Bazaar magazine. Here, take a look!
The wedding breakfast was held back in The Belgravia which had been dressed exquisitely. So beautifully in fact that it warranted its own image. A long European-style table dressed o beautifully and adorned with bespoke candles and beautiful floral arrangements.

Food was a very important element of the day for Roxana and Stuart and in preparation for their wedding, the poor things had to subject themselves to some food-tasting appointments with The Lanesborough’s talented chefs. The outcome was delicious and exciting food that really wowed their guests.
Their enthusiasm extended to the cake as they had the most original round three-tier cake in flavours of pistachio rose as a nod to Roxana’s Persian heritage, zesty lemon and vanilla. The creation of the highly skilled team at Cupcake Clusters. To whom, Roxana and Stuart have confessed to becoming lifelong customers.
When it came to evening entertainment, Roxana and Stuart had, just like they had in the day, put a lot of thought into their guest’s wedding experience. There were beautiful decorations of bespoke candles and balloons, delicious food and a live DJ set with a Persian percussionist that really got the party started. Their thoughtfulness really paid off as everybody had a ball.
An elegant and luxurious wedding for this lovely couple. Congratulations to Roxane and Stuart for getting married and creating such a wonderful wedding for yourselves, your family and your friends to remember. And thanks for having us there. We loved it.
We’ll leave the last words to Roxane and Stuart. Here are their thoughts on us…
“We would 100% recommend MIKI studios. Mick and Ash – you’re both super to be around. You were both professional, did the job and got us to just be ourselves – all whilst disappearing into our crowd.”
