I don’t even know where to start with how amazing Amanda & Regan’s elopement day was. The sun was shining in Te Anau and the pair had their families in town to celebrate with them.


They had a very relaxed morning, getting ready and Amanda did a first look with her Dad & Regan. Then it was off to the helicopter! The pair were doing a private mountaintop ceremony, so Amanda’s Dad walked her to the helicopter because he wouldn’t be able to walk her down an aisle 🥰


We flew into the Norwest Lakes (this spot was used as Rivendell in LOTR) and the views are incredible.


We found a nice spot overlooking the mountains and lake to do the ceremony. It was such a fun and emotional ceremony and we even had kea come by and check out what was going on!


After celebrating with a champagne pop and exploring this amazing location, we flew back to Te Anau. The family were all waiting at the park for their arrival and were so excited to see them!


We spent some time doing family photos before a reception kicked off at the Distinction. What a wonderful way to begin married life!


Congratulations Mr & Mrs Bennett! 🥂

"Working with Brogan was everything a bride and groom could ever need! Brogan gave us an EXTREMELY helpful list of vendors, she met with us via zoom, was available during email and helped capture our day beautifully.


We just followed her lead with photos/ locations and they looked stunning. She gave us a sneak peek 2 days later and then sent us a beautiful care package. What a wonderful experience helping our special day! I definitely would recommend Brogan"
