STEPH & BEN | MATIERE

We have said it before, and we will say it again. We LOVE a home wedding, especially when the wedding is at the couples own home! Steph and Ben got married on their sheep and beef farm in Maitere. Creating sentimental memories to last a life time, this couple planted wild flowers specifically for their wedding ceremony location and held their reception on the stunning open plan air strip. Our marquee lit up like the beauty that she is under the night stars and we think the whole mix was a match made in heaven. And how could you not love a wedding where the pups are included?! Congrats you two on creating not only a gorgeous but also a super special wedding day!

PRIYANTA & SID | JAKAMA LODGE

Set at one of our fav Waikato venues, this wedding was certainly another one for the books! We loved seeing this couples vision come to life creating the dream Kiwi Indian wedding! The Love Club team supported Priyanta & Sid with two separate days of set up, making the most of reusing some furniture for the different days of celebrations in different ways. Priyanta and Sid live in Australia, so visiting home for the first time since Covid and having all their family and friends come together to celebrate their love was the most special part of their day! We think they did an incredible job of giving their day the wow factor. And how incredible does Priyanta look?!

WIL & ANDRE | HAMILTON GARDENS

Inspired by the warmth and beauty, Wil and Andre made it their dream to capture the style of Italy on their big day. With Italian Renascence (mixed with a lil bit of Australia), the Italian Gardens in Hamilton provided a stunning background , making guests feel like they were in Tuscany! And throw in (literally) some petals in the tunnel of love and a champagne tower and you very much have a match made in heaven.

We got to pop up our beauty clear marquee on the family’s farm in Ngatea for Ryan and Theresa. This was another one of it’s first outings and wow what a spot!

BRITTANY & JAMES | TOMTIT FARM

The flower wonderland that is their own home - Tomtit Farm provided not only the main inspiration for their wedding but also the most perfect venue for Brit and James.

APRIL & TROY | TE KUITI

This wedding will always be a bit special for us as it was the first outing for our brand new clear marquee - and what an outing it was! April and Troy brought their beautiful family property in Te Kuiti to life perfectly, dancing the night away under the stars. April and Troy said “I do” not only surrounded by various native trees, but specifically between two matai trees that were connected at the base on the trunks. There probably couldn’t have been a better sign that this was the place that it was just meant to be for these love birds.

KAYLA & JOSH | MORRINSVILLE

Kayla and Josh let their beautiful home property be the backdrop of their stunning day. Held in Morrinsville, this wedding showcased their rustic style to a tee. Making perfect use of one of our bars, some bar leaners & stools, and topped off with a wedding a band - they were able to hold one heck of a party! What a way to celebrate your big day!

MEL & ETHAN | THE ATRIUM, HAMILTON

When you have your wedding at the Atrium, how can you not use the orange brick work and black steel as inspiration for your colour palate? This wedding rocked it and used a vast amount of lush florals to tie all of the rustic colours together so beautifully - and why wouldn’t you when the Bride is a florist herself! The day brought together everything that was important to this couple and everyone that they love. Any day must be extra special when your kids get to be part of it too. How cute are Mel and Ethan’s little guys?!

What better time of year to have a wedding than Easter, when Autum and Winter colours provide the inspiration for your colour theme! Milly and Kenneth brought together all of the things that they love to celebrate their day and focused on having a simple yet classic and timeless style. And what better way to celebrate your wedding, than one you can eat Easter Eggs and Hot Cross Buns at!

HANNAH & ELLIOT | THE BOATSHED, LAKE KARAPIRO

We absolutely loved style and vibe that Hannah and Elliot created using our furniture, overlooking the beautiful Lake Karapiro, for their special day. This day was truly authentic to the happy couple and they made sure that they focused only on what they considered to be important parts of the day. We loved that they challenged traditions and did things a little differently. Having Hannah’s brother, Mum and Dad involved in her walking down the aisle was a beautiful special touch and the casual setting that Hannah and Elliot created for their guests at the reception was simply perfect.

BECS & RICHIE | TAUWHARE

This wedding is EVERYTHING! The styling, the relaxed vibe and the super sweet couple! We love that so many couples are not only having really casual relaxed affairs but also focusing their days on doing exactly what works and reflects them as a couple. This was one of those weddings! Everything, even down to the proposal (which sounded amazing) really reflected everything that this couple are! We also loved that they even managed to pop to their own home (10 minutes away from their wedding venue) for some photos and quiet time to soak in everything about their special day. Its so important to take a moment, as it does go by so quickly!
