You want a party? Well you got one <3
Now we’ve been to Middle Eastern weddings so we weren’t gonna be surprised by massive parties but this…. this was a whole new level LOL
Even while Sandra was still getting all prettied up (and yes she was gorgeous!) in the bedrooms, families and friends had already gathered outside, dancing and singing away to drums and trumpets in the living room. And the Vibe was legen… Wait for it… … … Dary!
Boys side wasn’t as loud and rowdy but they made up for it in ample amounts of “fabulous”. I mean… just look at the perfect s”deer” while holding a beer. Perfection. (I apologies for the dad joke <3 But do not take it back)
Now that’s all done and dusted it was time to get these 2 love birds married! And no better place to do it than at St Addai Chaldean with their gorgeous floor to ceiling stained glass entrance <3
The stained glass wasn’t the highlight though, Sandra was so gorgeous she managed to get a few tears out of mark before she even walked down the aisle 🤣 true love at work 👌
We were definitely racing against time and although we didn’t quite catch the golden hour atop the hills of Bracu Estate, we got some pretty epic shots in during the blue hour (yes its a thing if you didn’t know :P)
What made this shoot extra special was that Sandra and Mark actually got to do their vows here. A perfect private time with nothing but the rolling hills, gentle breeze, each other and 2 very sexy wedding photographers. Jokes we ran off a bit into the distance so they could have some privacy :P Still really wanna know what Sandra said to make mark really cry this time tough hahahaha
By the time we’d gotten back it was completely dark of course but we made the best of it with some Champaign rain + bonus! They brought poppers and it was glorious!
A quick trip to the wine cellar to chill before the main party started (thanks Bracu Estate team!) was an epic treat too <3
Ever had an entire hour of partying before the food or speeches even started? Us neither, till now 🤣
And seriously these guys can PARTY. The entire wedding party burst into the dance floor with enough energy to light Auckland (maybe the entire New Zealand?) and we were off to the races. Drums and trumpets played, the DJ spun his magic, Yalekhta and Kopalas were being flung from left to right and this was just the start :P
It was soon dinner time speeches but to be honest, apart from a bit of silence while the speeches were given (we all learned the real reason Mark wanted to transfer to Auckland :p) it was just 1 big party the whole time lol
p.s. Thanks Bracu Estate team for the epic meal!!!
With everything out of the way it was time for more partying! Cause what would a wedding be if you don’t dance the night away :D
But not before we got a photo of Mr Charming here with his arms around “someone sexy”.
