Kicking off for 2012, we headed out to Castaways above Kariotahi Beach out on the west coast. The weather leading up to the day was not the best, but as the day went on – the clouds started to disappear and it turned out to be a scorching afternoon. Blair, growing up in NZ & Philippa originally from Canada, had travelled from Singapore, and chose Castaways as the perfect location for their wedding, and somewhere for many of their overseas and out of town guests to experience just a little bit of NZ. It didnt get much better than that – a light breeze, a few clouds and some much longed for sunshine!
As Philippa and her bridesmaids were pampered by Lexia in their chalet above the venue, Blair and all of the guys, rallied together for a game of cricket on the beach. After a beautiful ceremony on the cliff top and some mixing and mingling with guests, we headed down to the beach for Blair & Philippa’s location shoot along with videographer Craig from Creative Video. The whole day was filled with fun and laughter and it really helped to set a relaxed tone for the day, which is what Blair & Philippa wanted.
Blair & Philippa – Thank you for allowing us to share your day with you. Every little detail of the day was filled with love and attention and you pulled it all together while living abroad. You guys are awesome!
We hope you enjoyed the rest of your wedding day, and I’m sure your friends and family had an amazing time here in NZ. We wish you all safe travels and enjoy this preview with many more to come!



Something blue….. Philippa’s gorgeous shoes!












Cooling off in the waves






Unfortunately the cloud rolled back in and the sunset didn’t really eventuate. Blair & Philippa headed out on to the lawn to reflect on the day![]()
