Renee and James’ wedding was a beautiful, relaxed affair on a golden day in April at Kumeu Valley Estate. Filled with meaningful details and surrounded by everyone they love, it was a truly special day! I can’t get over how gorgeous Renee looked in her Rue de Seine dress with her best girls in navy next to her. We had lots of fun spinning in the sunlight with those floaty dresses! Renee and James chose to do a ‘first look’ seeing each other before the ceremony and having all the portraits done beforehand too. I love it when couples do this, it makes the day run so smoothly! (Feel free to ask me how you can create the perfect timeline and incorporate a first look into your day.) I love Kumeu weddings as there are plenty of beautiful nature-filled nooks to photograph in and I’m super glad Renee and James were ok squeeze through fences and get amongst the corn fields to create some beautiful photos. The ceremony was lovely and heartfelt and particularly special to have Renee’s Aunty Gillian Smith as the celebrant. Thank-you Renee and James for having me and I wish you the most blissful and beautiful marriage xxx
