More from The Kiwi Wedding Podcast
This week I’m chatting with Lucy about her beautiful European-inspired wedding at Trent’s Estate Vineyard in Christchurch, from a surprise proposal in Paris to all the thoughtful details that made the day her own.
This week I’m chatting with Caity about her destination wedding in Hawke’s Bay, travelling over from Australia to celebrate with their favourite people and make the most of everything New Zealand has to offer.
This week I’m chatting with Maddi about her beautiful May wedding at Markovina, from a surprise Waiheke proposal to planning a 170-person wedding in just under seven months.
Planning a wedding from the other side of the world is no small feat, especially when you’re also moving countries just weeks before the big day.
What happens when you stop worrying about what a wedding is supposed to look like and create something completely your own?
