— Andrea & Mitchell

Another stunning spring wedding for September at Rose & Smith, makes the long season ahead exciting when I get to be involved with beautiful wedding days like Andrea & Mitchell’s.

These two were Berriskuxx as they say in the wedding game. Andrea & Mitchell, bloody good people surrounded by a good time crew. With a game winning spreadsheet, Andrea sorted all the planning pre wedding day which meant her, Mitchell and the rest of the crew could get on with enjoying the day unfold in front of them. Always a pleasure never a chore.

It’s starting to come to the end of my wedding season and makes the long season easy capturing beautiful wedding days like Danielle & Jono’s. Whenever Sarah from Horrobin & Hodge is involved we know the florals are always going to be amazing, with bright pops of the autumn colours flowing throughout the day.

And I can never complain when I’m sent home with a box of fresh homebaked cookies made by Danielle, they were literally the best. Checkout their beautiful day and the amazing vendors below.

Kate and Leighton featured in Issue 27 of Together Journal

I thought Leighton was so amazing, with his long hair, walking barefoot around Wellington.
— Kate & Leighton featured in Together Journal

Feaured in issue 27 and online on Together Journal

I thought Leighton was so amazing, with his long hair, walking barefoot around Wellington. We balance each other, as I am quite organised and Leighton is relaxed. We were nearing our 10 year anniversary when Leighton arranged a trip to Vietnam and proposed while we were in a small row boat in Ninh Bình – a beautiful place. The following day, he arranged a private boat to stay overnight in Ha Long Bay. This was his original proposal plan, but he forgot to tell the crew he’d already done it, so he had to pretend to propose again, as they’d set up leaves and petals in the shape of a heart on a beach.
