Brad and Poppy's Hobbiton Movie set wedding
What an amazing day Brad and Poppy had at Hobbiton Movie set a few weeks ago, family had travelled from the other side of the world to be there on their special day and celebrate these two getting married, typically New Zealand lived up to its Land of the Long white Cloud reputation and it poured down… .. but it would take more than a bit of rain to stop these two from having the most amazing day, What a day.. and what an amazing couple… Huge thankyou to the epic staff at Hobbiton movies set that looked after us n the day !

The wedding of Sean and Kaity | Hobbiton Movie set | Matamata
The day before Sean and Kaity’s wedding it poured down….. I mean so much rain I thought Hobbiton and the Shire was going to be underwater in parts and began organising wet weather gear again for the cameras and umbrellas to try to keep bags dry and stop gear getting damp and trying to come up with a plan for the photos….. Well, when the next day dawned it was cloudy but no rain and the forecast was for it to stay that way all day and I did breathe a huge sigh of relief…. !!! I did not need to worry as The Shire looked amazing and one of the cool effects of it having rained so hard was how Hobbiton just popped…. the grass was super green and everything was so so vibrant !!
Sean , Kaity and their family and friends had flown in from New York to visit Hobbiton and to have a small ceremony there, and a private tour being huge LOTR fans everyone dressed up for the occasion and in true Hobbit style had a feast prepared by the amazing team at Hobbiton and had an exceptionally good party Here are just a few images from the day,
Enjoy !
The Wedding of Michael and Aimee, Hobbiton Movie set
Well to say it rained on Saturday would be a bit of an understatement to be honest and as I was driving over to Tauranga in the morning to meet up firstly with Michael for groom prep and then over to Aimee for Bridal prep, the road was like a stream in places and traffic over the Kaimias was slow as we all took our time wanting to get up and over the other side in one piece !!
Here are a few from the the awesome but very wet wedding day of Michael and Aimee… on the plus side The Shire and Yard Flat were the ceremony was held looked really green and bright and the colours just popped in camera !!
Huge thankyou to the Staff at Hobbiton for once again looking after us all so well and carrying gear from place to place and just having it magically appear at The Mill house for the reception was just so good !!
James and Valerie, Hobbiton movie Set, Matamata Pre weddng shoot
James and Valerie travelled up from Wellington on Friday and a cruisy 6-hour drive turned into a 10-hour drive thanks to delays and roadworks but that didn’t stop them turning up on Saturday morning at Hobbiton Movie set Matamata with the biggest smiles on their faces and with such enthusiasm ready for their 10 am private photography tour.
The weather was perfect for us so we headed down into the movie set to start their private photo tour and capture some epic memories for them to share.
Thank you so much for choosing me to share your very special day with you!!
