Sam and Mackenna's wedding day was one filled with love, family, music and all things beautiful. They are high-school sweethearts, so it was super lovely seeing them take this huge step in their relationship.
It's always special when you feel like you are just part of the family at weddings. Sam and Mackenna's wedding was an incredibly loving family affair - every single guest was welcomed with open arms into the two families that were joined that day. The love for Sam and Mackenna was soooo evident. It was a celebration not just of these two and their relationship, but of the many various family and friends who have shaped them. It was a day filled with laughter and sincerity, where everyone stood together in agreement and declared to support them throughout their marriage. Sam and Mackenna, you are an awesome couple and it was a privilege to share in your day!

We began our coverage at the ceremony - held in the Carey-Smith's INCREDIBLE home garden. It was immaculate, summery, colourful and so perfect for Sam and Mackenna.
This was a wedding possible because of a community of awesomely talented people. These beautiful bird illustrations are all by our lovely friend, Helen (Sam's sister in law!)... and the music was insanely amazing - shivers down your spine stuff.
Time for a gorgeous, heart-warming ceremony led by Mackenna's Uncle John.
Mr and Mrs Dent!!
... and another Mr and Mrs Dent! ;)
Yet another Mr and Mrs Dent!
We did the bulk of the photo session around the Carey-Smith's perfect property too - looooved these barns!
Totally adorable together x
Mackenna, you are so beautiful!
And your bridal party looked pretty amazing too!
Our last few photos were at Mackenna's family home... a house we used to live two doors down from, with a red door that I always coveted!
Sam and Mackenna, and your lovely families, thank you so much for asking us to photograph your big day... it really was a privilege to be part of it! We hope you had a lovely honeymoon and that you are settling into married life really well up in Palmerston North! All our love xx
