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.

On a sparkling spring day at Cossars Wineshed, we witnessed a marriage filled with romance, style and laughter. Teresa & Jason made a commitment to each other in the courtyard surrounded by family and friends from each end of New Zealand. After waiting 6 months to contact Teresa once he had her number, it didn’t take Jason long to realise she was the one for him.

Here’s what Jason & Teresa had to say after watching this film:
“The film we have only just seen since getting back from holiday however the memories come flooding back of the day and we love it, can’t wait to show family friends. We can’t express enough thanks to you (Craig), Clinton and the Lovelight team. Your professionalism the ease in which you make everyone comfortable and the little touches that you add going beyond what is expected.”

Teresa & Dwight tied the knot with the most breathtaking backdrop at Marble Point Winery in Hanmer Springs. As a severe gale was blowing through North Canterbury, all chances of Dwight arriving by helicopter were dashed, but nothing could stand in the way of friends and family witnessing the most beautifully styled wedding with gorgeous vows in a magical setting.

Here’s what Dwight & Teresa had to say after watching their wedding film:
“Thank you so much we absolute love it it’s so special that you have captured all our beautiful details and we love the title and song choice esp. since it ties in with gorgeous Olivia’s speech! I know that it was quite trying conditions but we hope you had lots of fun like we did, we loved having you guys there what a cool job you have.
I think that’s it so exciting! Thanks so much for make our dreams come true xxxx” – Teresa & Dwight
