Ben & Genaya | The Woolshed, Canterbury | Rustic Elegant Wedding

Winter weddings are definitely one of my favourites; layers, warmth, richness of colours and there is always a bigger sense of intimacy.

Ben and Genayas details were so well planned out, right from the rustic woolshed, through the the vintage fur wraps, the red, red roses and lets not forget the beautiful decorations. You may have seen the blog post (from May this year), the engagement session I photographed for Ben and Genaya in my home city Christchurch. Carrying on from this story, on a cool day in July these two said their "I Do's". I think everyone had hopes for snow (including myself!), it looked promising when a few days before the wedding some snow storms passed through, however it had melted before the day.

This wedding cried the ultimate DIY'ers dream, every aspect of this day was hand crafted by James and Melinda themselves. The intricate detail in every item - you know this day had been carefully thought out and planned.

It was a gorgeous summer day, held at their family farm, surrounded by their nearest and dearest where they took the next step as husband and wife. The love this couple had for eachother is unsurpassed.
