Daniel & Hannah’s wedding was all kinds of EPIC! We started the day out with some wake surfing on Lake Brunner with the boys on two incredible Malibu Wakesetters, before heading off to se the girls at Iveagh Bay (what a sweet spot).  They had their ceremony outside their bach in Moana, overlooking the lake, before heading back out in the boats and across the lake to a special spot for the creative shoot. This crew know how to party, and so they did, well in to the night. It was an action packed day and we were thrilled to be a part of it.

Here’s what they had to say : Wow wow wow!!! We absolutely love it. What an amazing job you guys have done. We could not have asked for anything better!! — Hannah & Daniel

After months of planning, the wedding day of Tom & Bex was a truly spectacular and heartfelt affair. Set in the bride’s family home – the stunning Parkbrae Estate at Lake Tekapo – our groom Tom was a little bit emotional as he saw his bride walk down the aisle. This epic day was overflowing with laughter, romance, gifts, music and lots of things that were uniquely Tom & Bex, like the Dog whistle that Tom got in exchange for the wedding ring he gave Bex.

Here’s what Tom & Bex had to say after watching this wedding film for the first time :  “Ahhhhhhhh this is just outstanding, we can’t thank you enough Lovelight we are so happy with our video, absolutely blown away by it.. Everybody must get one of these done on their wedding day it is worth every cent.. Tom and I could not be happier with the outcome and the professional lovely, talented team we had with us on the day…
Whoop whoop..  Thanks again”
– Tom & Bex Hayman

We’d been excited about Rhys & Kiri’s wedding ever since Kiri contacted us about shooting it. Rhys is a dairy farmer with the most hilarious sense of humour. When he found Kiri he not only won her heart, but he managed to transform her footwear from heels to gumboots. The day reflected a bit of a dairy vibe with the tables named after breeds of cows and gumboots making an appearance in the most unlikely of places. Here’s the story of their wedding day.

Here’s what Kiri & Rhys had to say after watching this wedding film for the first time :  “WOW!! You guys are absolutely amazing from the photography to the video! Truely speechless. Thank you so much for capturing all the detail we will sometimes forget. ” – Kiri
