Lost the beginning of Becky and Omid's wedding blog?? Check it out HERE!
What's the first thing you do when you are a married couple?? Go to the Magic Memory Making Machine of course! Becky and Omid had The Amazing Travelling Photobooth to entertain their guests while we were away... another thing I definitely recommend if you are planning a wedding!
So.much.fun!
Cherry on the Top also planned an awesome Easter Egg hunt for the kids... see, told you they thought of everything!
Gorgeous girls!
Surrounded by the spectacular Queenstown mountains, and nestled away in their own wee haven, Becky and Omid had some alone time to watch the sun set (along with some big stalker cameras)...
Some people move our souls to dance.
Back inside, even the grandparents got in on the photo booth action!
Gorgeous reception details by Cherry on the Top!
The speeches were great and Rebecca and Omid clearly have a lot of love and support around them. Omid made things a little emotional for the bridesmaids though...
One of the final Persian traditions for the night was the knife dance... where the bridesmaids steal the cake knife, and perform a typical Persian dance with it! The couple is expected to give money to the dancer in exchange for the knife, but the dancer will withhold the knife and pass it onto another bridesmaid to begin it all over again! This was awesome to watch - these bridesmaids were so good at not giving over the knife that Omid had to borrow money from other people too before they could finally cut their cake!
Mount Soho Winery is a gorgeous venue, and we were sooooo impressed with how willing they were to personalise things especially for Becky and Omid! We were privvy to some of the hard work that went into this wedding when we met with Becky and Omid (and a lot of the other vendors) at Mt Soho a few months prior, and we got to taste test some of the Persian foods that Occasionz Catering were personalising for them!
THANK YOU Becky and Omid!!! We loved shooting your big day... it was so amazingly organised and you did such a great job of everything!! The love you share is inspiring and beautiful, we look forward to catching up with you through many years of happy marriage! Lots of love xoxo
PS - since this blog seems to be full of shout outs to other wonderful vendors too, I better not forget that we were privileged to work with Australian videographer, Danae, from Me & My Camera Wedding Films, so I am looking forward to seeing what she came up with throughout the day!
