Beautiful winery, beautiful couple. When you have great locations and great people, it makes us appreciate how lucky we are to be in this line of work. We love it when couples write their own wedding vows for their special day. What better way to say these meaningful words than in front of family and friends.

Brad & Natalie met during their studies at Lincoln University. So naturally they had their wedding close by at Pemberton, and even had photos in front of the iconic library building on campus. Brad told the story of how they met, in a fun and quirky way and he amazed us with his speech making abilities (it was fantastic). Brad & Natalie’s son Ben (The Wee Man) was dressed to impress and thats just what he did, he stole hearts and watched on as his parents tied the knot on the lawn at Pemberton.

After coming from Melbourne for their destination wedding, waking up to heavy rain is not what anyone would plan on, but it wasn’t going to detract from the incredible day Shawn and James had in store for their spectacular Queenstown wedding.

Sharing a house with their twelve groomsmen and groomsmaids, our two grooms couldn’t have dreamt of a more special day. The weather cleared and after a walk together down to the Shotover River, our grooms got ready – looking sharp in matching navy suits, detailed with custom cufflinks. They departed in style, taking four classic cars to Mt Soho Winery. Guests were treated to a beautiful ceremony as Shawn and James walked down the aisle with their Mums, lead in by a pōwhiri from one of Shawn’s Whānau (family).

Shawn and James were cheered into their divinely decorated reception where we heard toasts, speeches, blessings and a waiata (Māori song) from Shawn’s whānau. Shortly after the last speech, all of the guests headed into the Antler Room where they were treated to this Same Day Edit, shortly followed by the first dance with LA Social.

We had a fantastic time filming the wedding of John & Holly. It was an incredible day with the weather starting out with heavy rain and intense hail, and then just 20 minutes before the ceremony was to begin the clouds opened up and the sun shone bright and hot for the rest of the day. The love shared by John & Holly was obvious throughout the day, from their custom vows to their interactions while out on the creative photo and video shoot and the tales of love in their speeches.
