Ebony Vines Wedding

NICOLE & KURT’S WEDDING FILM

Getting ready in Rotorua then off to the beautiful Ebony Vines wedding venue for the rest of the day. What a fantastic time everyone had. The venue allows couples to choose their own catering and use of the spaces. It was only a 10-minute drive up the road to Maketu beach for some twilight footage and photos, ideal for relaxed people like Nicole and Kurt.

THEIR STORY…

HOW DID YOU TWO MEET?

Moving into a flat together! My brother went overseas for a year and got me to look after his house & flatties – Kurt moved in a week later!

WHY DO YOU WANT TO CAPTURE YOUR WEDDING ON VIDEO? WHY DID YOU PICK ME?

So in years to come, we can look back on it and remember it (wedding) better than we can in photos also spoke to others recently married and they said not getting video was their biggest regret. You are easy going, didn’t try and pressure us into going with you, but instead offered us good advice – nice & genuine. You’re very helpful & willing to go the extra mile!

WHY DID YOU DECIDE ON THE EBONY VINES WEDDING VENUE?
