A Full Day Wedding Near Palmerston North
Updated: Aug 29
A Wedding Day Shaped Around Their Own Land
Holly and Jordan were married on a private property near Palmerston North, a late November wedding that ran from early afternoon through to the evening's dancing. It's the kind of full day coverage that suits a wedding held outside a dedicated venue, plenty of time to properly capture getting ready, the ceremony, and everything that followed, the day shaped entirely around their own property rather than someone else's schedule.
The Quiet Appeal of the Manawatu
The Manawatu region doesn't get the same spotlight as some of the bigger wedding destinations, but it has its own quiet appeal, open countryside, good light, and none of the crowds that come with a more well known venue. As the afternoon gave way to evening, the light shifted from bright early summer sun into something softer, and the celebration carried on well after dark, a full day of coverage catching both the crisp afternoon portraits and the warmer, more relaxed feel of the reception once night had properly set in.
