Stunning winter wedding in The Barn at the Gillespie's Residence for Melissa and Micah

“A full pumping hydraulic system and a physio who matched perfectly ”

— Melissa and Micah

I wrapped up my wedding season at a place close to my heart out at the Gillespies Farm. It was one of the places that I shot one of my earliest weddings when I started out and so many weddings through the years can be connected back to The Barn at Aranui Road.

So it was great to add another wedding plaque to the Gillespies roots and capture Melissa and Micah’s big day. A coffee cart, some Subies with aside dish of classic F150 and plenty of song and dance, was a beaut way to close out the season.

Check out the barn, the beauties and the bangers below!

“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.

“Such a dreamy start to our season”

— Rose & Smith

It’s saaaah good to be amongst the big big energy of weddings again. Winter still hasn’t done its dash but that hasn’t put a dampener on the wedding day vibes. I twas back at my second home @rose_and_smith for Georgia & Aiden’s schlick day.

From the boys welcoming me in with an ice cold beer to the beautifully husky ceremony by @marriedbyabbey the wedding day was amazing from start to finish. We even managed to sneak in a tiny first dance to kick off the dancefloor. Snaps on snaps of snaps, check’em out #davidle_nz @davidle_nz
