Katie & Hayden | Broadlands Lodge Wedding | Auckland Wedding Photographer

The Perfect Rustic Wedding

This special wedding day was filled with laughter and joy right from the start. Katie was the perfect bride in her elegant yet simplistic pristine white dress. Hayden's blue fitted tux, topped with a green and white boutonniere, was the perfect match to Katie's dress and the green garden background.

Once everyone was dressed and ready to get the celebration started, the bride and groom got together with the bridal party to take photos in front of the idyllic farm and among the green garden valley, bringing in a touch of serene perfection. The groom was in shock at his soon-to-be wife's beauty, so much so that he couldn't stop hugging her. The fun-filled photoshoot transitioned into a small, quaint picnic, where they clinked champagne glasses to the couples' new life chapter.

Following this, the bride and groom were ready to start the ceremony, and it was nothing short of perfect. When the bride walked down the aisle through the perfectly manicured Edwardian formal, bagpipes played in the background, silencing the happy cries of the audience. The couple said "I Do" under perfectly blue skies. As a newly married couple, their Auckland wedding photographer took more photos to capture their first moments as Mr & Mrs, which were equal parts stunning and romantic. To add some entertainment to this already eventful day, the groom experienced some food poisoning during the second photoshoot but quickly shook it off and was ready to get the party started.

Everyone met in the gorgeous rustic barn to prepare for a light-filled garden dinner and celebration to start the party. The decorations were simple yet stylish, with a touch of greenery displayed as decor to offset the rustic brown. When the sun went down, the party started, and it was lit by the star-filled sky and garden lights. Dances, laughs, and wine-glass clinks filled the night and welcomed the new bride and groom into their new life.
