STYLED SHOOT - MAN O' WAR BAY

As the seasons turned, we found ourselves on a windswept beach down the far end of Waiheke Island, with a few fellow wedding specialists, knee deep in the sea! Man O' War Bay was our chosen beachside location for this styled shoot, with it's moody landscape and sheltered bay. It was also rather handy having Man O' War Bay Vineyard Tasting Room across the road!  A fun afternoon, and so great meeting our guest florist Brooke from Seventh Stem, (all the way from Portland) who joined Stacie from Lux Floral Studio in creating some beautiful florals. These stunning film images are thanks to our good friend Steph from BubbleRock, we are so grateful you made it over Steph! How pretty and romantic are these seascape tones of blues and greys, this was definitely well worth getting wet for! Thank you to all those who helped out on the day.

CATHERINE & STEFAN - A CABLE BAY WEDDING

Catherine and Stefan married on an incredible blue sky day, with gorgeous all white ceremony and reception at Cable Bay Vineyards, Waiheke Island. Looking like she stepped straight our of Vogue Weddings, Catherine looked amazing in her Inbal Door wedding gown. The selected style was sophisticated elegance in white, using the couples monogram, lots of white lounge furniture and props for the lawn area and beautiful white and ivory blooms for their ceremony canopy and reception. The effect was spectacular! Wonderful to work with a local favourite, Photographer Emma Hughes on this one.

MIKE & MIRIAMA GET HITCHED ON WAIHEKE

Mike and Miriama's incredible Waiheke wedding processed all the elements of truly magical occasion of the heart!  The beautiful setting was the couples own land on Waiheke, complete with rolling fields, olive grove and a beautiful rustic holiday abode which all tied in perfectly with their relaxed style for the day. With over 200 guests on the guest list, this was a gathering at the larger end of the scale for Waiheke, and it was an absolute pleasure to invoke so many local producers and suppliers with this event, all at the request of the couple. It was such a pleasure to be involved with this day, and thank you to Rachel Callander for these beaufiul photos.

AIMEE & SAM - LAVENDER HILL

These two gorgeous people tied the knot on Waiheke back in Summer 2015, at the lovely Lavender Hill Estate on Waiheke Island. It was such an absolute pleasure meeting these guys, working with them in creating this spectacular day and to be involved with two people as relaxed and gracious as Aimee and Sam was really something I will always remember. This Summer we have the pleasure of working with Sam's sister and soon to be brother in law, who will also be getting married on the Island. I am now fondly reminded of this wedding, the beautiful vibrancy and fun colours, the stunning location, great suppliers and of course- magical photos by Jodi at I Do Photography.
