Congratulations Mr and Mrs Cathie!!  Choosing the 20th December was a sentimental pick for the the wedding of Natalie and Nick – a day filled with personal touches and so much happiness.   The clouds parted on cue and Natalie was led down the aisle by her brother Joseph on the sprawling & freshly mown lawn at the Cathie family farm.  They shared a bunch of emotional words with their nearest and dearest before photos around Chris and Jo’s gorgeous gardens and on to the ever-pretty Pihama Lavender Farm.  Sealing the celebrations with the reception at the Opunake Golf Club – the sun set and the Mt popped out – thanks for the sore smile muscles, adventures and great company…  xx

Bianca and Nathan’s glorious day was full of laughter, love, beautiful styling (Nicky’s bridal table letters were incredible) & attention to detail.  Wed on the pretty lawn at Te Maru, we were treated to beautiful vows & the best little ring bearer Tommy – who nailed it.  Adventures around the farm with the most handsome of horses, reflections, champagne sprays and later to a fire sky beach stroll… The night was kicked off with a dance that was next level – so many sore smile muscles and fabulous memories.  See below for a sneak peek into their day….

I love a family farm wedding – and these two nailed it.   Wed on their own slice of country, Sarah and Liam held their ceremony on their lawn with views to their rolling hills.  Surrounded by their nearest and dearest, they shared beautiful vows and then on to 4WD adventures and whole lot of reception shenanigans.  So much fun and thanks for the good times!  See below for a sneak peek…  xx

Celebrating their togetherness on their own gorgeous slice of Taradise – Joanne & Steve bet the rain for their beautiful ceremony, held on their bush clad lawn with close family and friends carefully undercover.  Adventures for our shoot around the property was such a treat – bush, farm, lakes and glades – the perfect backdrop for their special day.  Thanks for the ride and god times!  See below for a sneak peek into their special day.
