Dalziel + Ezra | Queenstown Adventure Wedding
Welcome to one of our favourite Queenstown Adventure Weddings! Dalziel and Ezra threw their wedding plans out the window when they heard about their friend Michelle & Charlie's idea of eloping on top of a mountain. They were deep in the midst of trying to fit everyone else's ideas into their day and realised it wasn't what they had dreamed of anymore. And if you're going to elope, you may as well go all out, right? Heck yes!!
Dalziel and Ezra fell in love with the idea of our Epic Adventure where we get to explore a little bit of everything. An alpine lake? Check! The wild west coast? Check! Milford Sound?! Check!! Snow - you guessed it! And the grand finale, the one of a kind Earnslaw Burn. Add to that, in planning a winter wedding, it was perfect timing for one of our favourite ways to end the celebration - an Astro photography shoot out in the starry skies.
Dalziel and Ezra both paid homage to their cultural roots, with Dalziel wearing an incredible family Korowai and a Heru comb for her hair, while both also had shark tooth earrings and Ezra wore pounamu around his neck.
So brace yourselves and perhaps go get a yum snack as you jump into Dalziel & Ezra's incredible wedding day...it's just a little bit like walking throug the wardrobe doors and into Narnia itself :)
Congratulations again, Dalziel and Ezra!! We had the most magical day with you both and are so humbled to have made lifelong friends along the way. Thanks for having so much fun at each incredible location and keep those beautiful smiles going strong xx

Queenstown Mountain Wedding | Lisa + Philip
Introducing Lisa and Philip - two wonderful people who didn't let wildfires back home in the USA spoil their wedding plans...instead travelling here to Queenstown and adventuring with us in the best possible way.
We put together an epic itinerary with five helicopter landings; mixing the best of New Zealand's stunning views, glacial valleys, crystal clear lakes and a wild beach landing just out of Milford Sound. Starting with their ceremony on Coromandel Peak and an additional helicopter for Philip's mum and Charlotte, our celebrant, we then made our way to Lochnagar, Earnslaw Burn, Madagascar Beach and finally sunset on Mt Crichton. For the six-hour adventure, we pulled together an A-star team of local suppliers, including a collaboration with Shotover Wedding Films whose incredible film we will share soon.
Lisa's breath-taking dress was created by international designer Galia Lahav and paired with Dolce & Gabbana heels that survived the mountains but were switched out for trusty sneakers on the wet beach.
Lisa and Philip were smiling from ear-to-ear all day long and had the best time laughing, running and jumping across New Zealand's wild but beautiful landscape. We had such an incredible experience and can't thank the happy couple enough for allowing us to be a part of their day and craft this once-in-a-lifetime experience alongside them. Congratulations! xx
Thanks to these amazing Queenstown wedding suppliers who came together for Lisa & Philip's day.
