OCTOBER 11
Rippon Hall Wedding
in Wanaka, New Zealand.
SOUTH ISLAND
The picturesque Stables
bathed in soft winter light.
The beauty of simplicity was
at the heart of the wedding for
this laid-back Sydney couple.
Stephanie and Robert celebrated their wedding day at picturesque Bendooley Estate in the Southern Highlands. Initially drawn to the the natural country landscape and the grape vineyard which were symbolic of Robert’s Italian culture and family tradition of winemaking.
The ceremony took place at the historic St Francis Xavier Chapel in Berrima; the couple marking their first moments as husband and wife to a sprinkle of confetti from guests as the winter sun danced against the sandstone church.
The evening was a divine culmination of all the things most important to the couple.
A celebration of life’s sweetest offerings; good food and fine wine, live music, connection with friends and family, and their love for one another.
The bride wore two silk gowns by Northern Beaches based bridal atelier L’eto Bridal and the groom was suited in a classic black tuxedo with silk lapels.
Their day was captured on both digital and film photography, the fleeting moments captured on grainy film fast becoming some of the most cherished memories for the couple.
“A ndy has the gift of being able to see your vision without you even having to articulate it. I am so amazed by how authentically he was able to capture the truest essence of our day, and I will always cherish these incredibly special memories with my husband and our family and friends.”
