Spring rain, daisies and a beautiful backyard wedding in Welcome Bay

Backyard weddings! Angela and Steve opted to host their Tauranga wedding in their very own backyard. Welcome Bay on the outskirts of Tauranga has a lot of natural bush and they are lucky enough to have a stream running through the bottom of their property – it’s magical! It was a true Spring wedding!

As soon as the ceremony began the heavens opened. I have to say I love a couple who shrug it off and married with not only the water under them but falling lightly on their shoulders! After a beautiful heartfelt ceremony witnessed by their closest friends and families (and chickens) we scooted off around the corner from their home where I’d discovered a field of daisies.

A completely different look and the weather played ball accordingly! (Oh and I played by hand at hybrid shooting) their wedding with photo and video at the same time if you’d like to check it out above! – Fabulous fabulous day and congratulations to Angela and Steve! – Rochelle
