Irish Catholic Beach Wedding

Well, it's not every day we get a couple that has flown all the way round the world to get married on the beach in the Hawkes Bay!!

They found our website on the internet ... booked & came out trusting that we were A) for real & B) would show up for their big day:-)

As it was the Hawkes Bay produced an absolutely stunning day... everyone got sunburnt & it was the most beautiful intimate wedding with a total of 11 attendees.

After the ceremony we went up Te Mata Peak to do more photos & by sheer chance there were paragliders up there & one had a purple sail that exactly matched the wedding colours!!

Awesome!!!

They were such a cool couple too, the Groom did so well in his suit in the sweltering (especially for them) heat & the Bride was just radiant.

A fabulous day was had by everyone.

As always plenty more to see including the Movie trailer at www.AFPNZ.com

Cheers for now,

Faith.

Sarnia Park Cambridge Wedding

This was another wedding at the beautiful Sarnia Park just outside of Cambridge.
We had a beautiful day & a fun bridal party, who were very good about walking heaps in the heat.
The first photo was one of the last ones we took before the reception started... they are stading on the wall outside the reception hall.
The Bride had the most awesome champagne coloured dress & she looked stunning.
The Bridesmaids dresses were also really cool, long & chocolate brown.
The boys went with the always popular black on black with brown ties.
The second picture is one of my favorite ring photos ... if you look closely you can see the Groom's reflection in the rings.
Well, I have plenty to update this week so check for more tomorrow.
Cheers,
Faith.

Forest Wedding

Well this was a beautiful wedding...
Held in a park next to Otorohanga's Kiwi House.
It was a great setting ... there was a bit of consternation about the weather as it started drizzling just before the bride was due to arrive, all the guests had their brollies out.
But the wet held off & the service went ahead as planned under the gaint pine trees.
Afterwards we went into the foresty part for the photoshoot & got some brilliant pictures.
The bridesmaids were so good they were freezing cold but they kept on smiling the whole way through & the Brides parents were the official brolly holders & kept up all the way through.
As for the groomsmen they were funny as a fit ... especially when we loaded them into the van on the way to the reception & I told them I only had a learner's liscence ... talk about backseat drivers!!!
All in all a great day was had by all.
