The cutests wedding ring bearer doggies you’ve ever seen.

“The legendary 12 pack and face down starfish”

— Harriet & Blake

The starfish and the chiseled 8 pack. Took the drive up to Tauranga in my Ferrari slash Toyota for the beaut wedding of Harriet & Blake at the scenic @eagleridgeestate
Great to hang out with my BOP fam @wildandwhim and @marriedbykelsey with plenty of laughs, good chat and the cutest little doggie ring bearers you ever did see. Things were a breeze with Max on the MC duty, a 20 minute halftime show by Renee & Elle and putting my on spin on the old school detail shots. Can’t wait for Andy to adopt me into the fam and give me one of his cars but for now check out the fun time snaps. Shoutout to @rachel.hadfield for helping me out on when I knee’d a hand/knee.

Old Forest School Wedding in Tauranga

A bit of cool at Old Forest School

“David Le our photographer was the BOMB. We were stoked with how he captured our day with his unique style and artistic flare. We had so many laughs, it was like having a good friend there on the day.”

— Ash & Darcy

A little look back at an Old Forest School wedding filled with rustic charm, wild gardens and dusky pastel hues. Celebrating with their nearest and dearest ASH + DARCY said their vows with a garden ceremony amongst these enchanted surrounds.  

With their shared love of the outdoors, the woodlands setting of Old Forest School stole their hearts.  This historic old school set on 5 aches of private forest and farmland in Pongakawa, just outside of Tauranga.

A nostalgic setting and a day to remember for these wild romantics.

Ashleigh and Darcy, getting some snugs in at school before dinner

What. A. Day. I spent this past weekend travelling back up to the beautiful Bay of Plenty, one of my fave places in NZ for the wedding of Ashleigh and Darcy at the iconic Old Forest School.

As the saying goes there are plenty of fish in the sea. And I’ve just written that to add some words to this blog post, but Ashleigh and Darcy do enjoy to go bush for a bit of spear fishing so, cool story.

Bad dad jokes aside, so many goodies, such a bloody good wedding, more of this brides to be, thank you muchly!
