Have you ever thought of having your wedding overseas in a beautiful country but can’t really think of how to pull it off? Here we share how Jessica & Alvin were able to make their dream wedding happen in New Zealand.
They both loved touring New Zealand, Alvin even proposed here so it was but natural to wish to get married in their favorite country. So they picked a quaint church, decided to keep the wedding party very small & handpicked suppliers both from NZ & the Philippines.
The makeup artist, florist & coordinator were from NZ and gown, suit, photo & video were us, from the Philippines! When we asked why they were willing to fly our whole team there, aside from better value, it was because of how we knew how to capture it the ‘Filipino’ way – if that meant being more heartfelt or just knowing what Pinoys want on their big day. We were simply thankful & blessed to have captured their love story in this gorgeous place.
After a few meetings in person & regular communication before the big day, we were able to celebrate their love both in photos & videos as seen in the sde below.
So when the charm of your favorite place calls to you, let us know & we’ll help you make that happen!
Here’s the list of the awesome suppliers both in Hamilton/Auckland/Ohaupo area that we were able to work with :
Ceremony Venue : The Tree Church, New Zealand
Reception Venue : Coopers Function Centre
Event Stylist, Bouquet and Coordinator : Jess Rose Design
Bride’s Shoes : Jimmy Choo
Bride’s Dress : Atelier Andrea Tetangco
Groom’s Attire : Jerome Salaya Ang
Grooming of Groom : Barbershop CO – Hamilton
Alvin had to go to the barbershop to have his hair cut which is kind of different than what happens here where specialty groomers go to you on your wedding day.
Hair Stylist : Darren Meredith
Make-Up Artist : Grayson Coutts Makeup Artistry
Trivia : It was Alvin’s first time to get a cut & wanted to surprise Jessica with you after having her know him with long hair for a long time.
