Rob & Sharin’s wedding day was more than a celebration of their love, it signified the blending of two cultures from two different corners of the world who now call Christchurch home.

Here’s what Rob & Sharin had to say after watching this wedding film for the first time :  “We love it! You’ve really managed to capture the feeling of our wedding day, the serious and also the fun, and watching it brought back such good memories for us! We so love that you’ve added the yamseng bit at the end 🙂 ” – Sharin & Rob

In Times Square, New York, Andrew (Andy) unveiled a sparkling ring and asked Rebecca (Bex) to be his wife. After an affirmative response from his new fiancé, the wedding planning began, and one of the earliest decisions they made was to have the Tannery as their wedding venue. A stunning location that comes alive as the sun sets and provided the perfect mid-winter destination for their guests.

Here’s what Bex & Andy had to say after watching this wedding film for the first time :  “We love it. Thank you so much. Its impossible to watch it with dry eyes (well for Bex anyway) and it will be such a treasured memento of our day. It was such the perfect mix of capturing the “lovey stuff” between us and our very special friends and family who were there. We are so grateful for all your hard work. I totally agree with you that a videographer is such an important part of the day – it goes past so fast so to be able to look back on it now is amazing. There were bits of the speeches I had already forgotten!” – Rebecca & Andrew

Jeremy & Louisa chose Queenstown as their wedding destination because of the special place it holds in their lives. When they’d just started dating they took a road trip to Queenstown in Louisa’s car. The 7 hour drive in a vehicle with no stereo was going to be the make or break of their relationship. When they arrived not only was the conversation the whole way riveting, but they now had a sense that their relationship can make it through anything.  After a long courtship (which Jeremy’s mates constantly give him a hard time about) and building a life and a house together, their plans for their dream wedding began, and Lovelight was welcomed to capture it and create this special video.

Here’s what Louisa & Jeremy had to say after watching this wedding film for the first time :  “We are so blown away with how you have captured our special day. You are truly talented and we were so happy to have you as a part of our day. There were definitely some tears of happiness watching this.” – J & L
