Sarah & Paul’s Wedding, Pilkingtons Restaurant, Auckland City 

Melbourne based couple, Sarah & Paul’s laid-back afternoon wedding was one of my favorites.

These guys really know how to have a great time and pack in the fun! A Jazz trio set the scene for their stylish vibe, and Pilkingtons in Shortland Street did not disappoint with their relaxed, chic atmosphere, and fabulous food and service. The bringing together of their two families, and the experience of their guests was very important to Sarah and Paul. The atmosphere was fantastic, and their day felt relaxed and calm, even though they were trying to buy a house in Australia during the speeches!

After their intimate service and a few family photos, we wandered to some special spots I’d found for them. Since we weren’t able to meet up before their wedding to talk locations and details, I had sent them some photos of my suggestions. They trusted me to choose their locations, and the result is a selection of images that showcase where they were married, iconic parts of Auckland and some photos in a tiny park I found at the top of Shortland Street, which looks like we are miles away from the city! I love variety in wedding photos and by choosing different locations, each of my couples gets plenty of options to choose from and loads of different images to share.
