ATAAHUA GARDEN VENUE


CHLOE + AARON


Chloe & Aaron said their 'I dos' during the most beautiful ceremony in the stunning grounds of Ataahua Garden Venue.


It was one of those mornings where the rain came, and went..and then came again. And much to everyones delight, it went again, minutes before the ceremony. Chloe looked absolutely incredible in her off the shoulder gown, with her beautiful long locks crowned perfectly with a pearl headpiece and veil. I don't think there was a dry eye amongst the guests when Chloe walked down the aisle and Aaron literally lost his breath at the sight of her. What. A. Moment.


It was the perfect day with the perfect couple. Not because they are clearly very photogenic, but because they are just kind, loving, positive humans and an absolute pleasure to be around. I shot Chloes sisters wedding a couple years back and that too was such a pleasure. I love re-connecting with families I've captured and seeing them at different stage in their lives.


As for the venue. Ataahua really is the most incredible place. The gardens deliver beauty all year round offering shade in summer, and rich colours in autumn and winter. There are so many great spots for bridal portraits you don't need to leave the venue at all, which means less time for photos and more time enjoying your guests. There are options a plenty for ceremony, cocktail hour, photos, reception, first dance. You really are spoilt for choice.
