Raglan Beach Elopement Wedding of Tiarnan and Michaela

Well I think elopement weddings have my heart they really do, especially when the elopement wedding is held on the beach at Raglan beach , well Ngarunui beach to be precise… with its black volcanic sand and towering cliffs and a sea that seems to change its colour from greens to blue every time you look at it, the way the light hits the hills , its just such a breath taking coastline , full of drama and ever changing it just pulls at your heart with a longing …… And it had the same effect on Tiarnan four years ago when he came here from North Ireland and came out to Raglan on a surfing trip…little did he know that he would meet the love of his life Michaela who was also a long way from her home of Boston USA and four years later would be married on that very beach…….

When Michaela and Tiarnan first got in touch with me they had thought they wanted a lunchtime ceremony at the beach but after we had a good chat I told them about the light out at Raglan beach later in the day they with out hesitation moved the ceremony to the evening so we could get them some fabulous early evening golden light….. !

Here are just a few from our time…
