When there’s only 40 people invited, you know it’s going to be an intimate affair. But, nothing could prepare us how beautiful this wedding set against the stunning rural landscape of Kaikoura was going to be. Photographed by the very talented Susanna Blatchford, this wedding combined some of the most beautiful wedding trends of 2020, while adding its’ own very special touches.
Lexie and Justin met at work and quickly became friends and then dated for a couple of years. While they’re based in Christchurch most of the time, Lexie’s family is from Kaikoura, and it was on her family farm they chose to exchange vows. The wedding had originally been planned for Port Douglas in July, but Covid put a stop to that. Plan B, however was everything but a second best option. With a stunningly gorgeous Rue de Seine wedding dress, beautiful Shona Joy bridesmaid dresses, dashing groomsmen in Rodd and Gunn suits, the bridal party were something to behold.
