We all knew it. Unfortunately, it was way too big and only available in blush, but I really wanted an ivory dress. Luckily for me, a few weeks later I found the dress in ivory and in my perfect size at their North Shore store. The amazing <a href=\"https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/sarah.html\" target=\"_blank\">Sarah</a> squeezed me in so I could try it on, and we ended up taking it that day. I didn’t even need any alterations!

Their wedding day was a joyful celebration overflowing with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Every photo captures the couple beaming with happiness, embracing each beautiful moment together.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Molly wowed in <a href="https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/maggie-sottero-harlem.html" target="_blank">Harlem</a> by <a href="https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/maggie-sottero/" target="_blank">Maggie Sottero</a>, a dreamy lace ball gown with a sheer sweetheart bodice, delicate off the shoulder illusion lace cap sleeves, a soft V-back, and a full tulle skirt that floated with every step. It was the perfect blend of romance and elegance.</p><p style="text-align: center;">We’re so excited to share a glimpse of their gorgeous day, and to hear from Molly herself about her experience with <a href="https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/auckland.html" target="_blank">Astra Bridal</a> and the journey to finding her dream dress.</p>

I’m one of those girls who dreamed of the perfect dress since I was a child. I had no idea what to expect from the wedding dress shopping experience, but my brother’s wife had recommended Astra Bridal after having a wonderful experience there.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I booked an appointment at the <a href="https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/auckland.html" target="_blank">Newmarket store</a> and brought along my mum, my bride’s mum, one of my best friends, and... despite the controversy, I had my wife attend as well! I couldn’t imagine making the decision without her there.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/brooke-aba.html" target="_blank">Brooke</a> was our consultant, and she was just brilliant. She made me feel so calm and confident during our Zoom meeting the week prior. We were served bubbles and treated like absolute royalty! To be honest, it was a peak experience that made every other dress try-on elsewhere pale in comparison.</p><p style="text-align: center;">The first dress <a href="https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/brooke-aba.html" target="_blank">Brooke</a> pulled was the one. We all knew it. Unfortunately, it was way too big and only available in blush, but I really wanted an ivory dress. Luckily for me, a few weeks later I found the dress in ivory and in my perfect size at their North Shore store. The amazing <a href="https://www.astrabridal.co.nz/sarah.html" target="_blank">Sarah</a> squeezed me in so I could try it on, and we ended up taking it that day. I didn’t even need any alterations! I was incredibly lucky, and it felt like fate.<br></p>

[intro] => Whimsical and Joyful Wedding in Auckland Whimsical and Joyful Wedding in Auckland Molly and Tyla said “I do,” surrounded by their nearest and dearest at the charming Shed Collective. Their wedding day was a joyful celebration overflowing with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Every photo captures the couple beaming with happiness, embracing each beautiful moment together.Molly wowed in Harlem by Maggie Sottero, a dreamy lace ball gown with a sheer sweetheart bodice, delicate off the shoulder illusion lace cap sleeves, a soft V-back, and a full tulle skirt that floated with every step. It was the perfect blend of romance and elegance.We’re so excited to share a glimpse of their gorgeous day, and to hear from Molly herself about her experience with Astra Bridal and the journey to finding her dream dress. What was it that made this particular wedding dress catch your eye and fall in love?It made me feel like a fairy princess... it took everyones breath away. The eight year old picturing her perfect wedding dress knew it was the one when I tried it on!Tell us about your search for the dress and the experience at Astra Bridal.Our wedding was incredibly small, but one thing we were never going to go small on was THE DRESS. I’m one of those girls who dreamed of the perfect dress since I was a child. I had no idea what to expect from the wedding dress shopping experience, but my brother’s wife had recommended Astra Bridal after having a wonderful experience there.I booked an appointment at the Newmarket store and brought along my mum, my bride’s mum, one of my best friends, and... despite the controversy, I had my wife attend as well! I couldn’t imagine making the decision without her there.Brooke was our consultant, and she was just brilliant. She made me feel so calm and confident during our Zoom meeting the week prior. We were served bubbles and treated like absolute royalty! To be honest, it was a peak experience that made every other dress try-on elsewhere pale in comparison.The first dress Brooke pulled was the one. We all knew it. Unfortunately, it was way too big and only available in blush, but I really wanted an ivory dress. Luckily for me, a few weeks later I found the dress in ivory and in my perfect size at their North Shore store. The amazing Sarah squeezed me in so I could try it on, and we ended up taking it that day. I didn’t even need any alterations! I was incredibly lucky, and it felt like fate. Tell us your story, how you both met, and the proposal.We met in Wellington through mutual friends, and our love story began! It started as a slow burn, which is fairly unusual for a WLW relationship, but it allowed us to build a deep and powerful partnership. Our relationship has seen us through lockdown, moving into our own place, travelling Europe, and now settling down so we can work towards a future we’re both really excited about!We were always unsure how we wanted to approach a proposal and a wedding and quickly realised that we could make our own rules. We designed our rings together and took them with us on our European adventure.In Budapest, during a picnic at sunset in a park, it felt like the perfect moment. With every intention to enjoy a long engagement, the following year we had the pleasure of watching my brother get married and felt we couldn’t possibly wait any longer!We did the unthinkable and planned a wedding in 2-3 months, and it was the dreamiest day, everything we could have ever wanted and more. What was your favourite part of the day?We got incredibly lucky with the weather (Auckland brides will understand. In fact, I bought some umbrellas from Facebook Marketplace from a bride who didn’t even need to unwrap them because her weather was perfect. I really felt like they were magical! I was so excited to pass them on to the next bride, still unwrapped).The sun set while we enjoyed a delicious dinner outside and read speeches. Then the sky turned bright pink, so we enjoyed some first dances.My wife and I planned a surprise for our parents: we played Father & Son by Cat Stevens while we danced with our dads, then Slipping Through My Fingers by ABBA while we danced with our mums, before finishing with Sea of Love by Cat Power for our first dance. There were tears all around… Tell us about your wedding day as a whole.Originally, we wanted to elope, but our close friends and family really wanted to be a part of the day, and it really was special to have them there. We kept our guest list very small with parents, siblings, and three friends.We started the day by going out to breakfast at our favourite café before heading over to my parents’ house to get ready with our mums. My amazing brother, sister in law, dad, and one of my best friends headed to the venue and set it all up for us. They did the most incredible job, and the venue looked absolutely fantastic. Once we had finished our hair and makeup, we travelled with our mums back to our home to get our wedding outfits on, and our wonderful photographer Olga joined us there for some photos. Our mums headed off, and we did a first look with our dads — so adorable. We all headed to the venue from there, where everyone was waiting at our ceremony. I’ll never forget standing at the front doors with my dad, taking a deep breath, and walking in. It was such a magical moment.We had the most gorgeous ceremony with the same officiant that my brother and his wife used at their wedding. He personalised our ceremony so it was perfect for us, he even used words from our favourite spoken word poem, which made us all cry. (Also, Grayson, our officiant, took a scrap from my dress and put it in his bow tie, how cute is that!?) My sister was our ring bearer. We had our two best girlfriends sign our certificate and then headed outside to party! The sunset and the food were incredible. We were so fussed over by everyone, and not once did I have an empty glass. My wife curated the playlist, and it was top tier.Overall, it was the most perfect day, and I wouldn’t change a thing... Finally, what is your biggest piece of advice for brides to be?You won’t regret spending money on a photographer (I cannot recommend Olga Bhana enough)!

This whimsical and joyful wedding took place in Auckland, New Zealand.

[intro] => Fun and Timeless Lifestyle Block Wedding in Hawke’s Bay Fun and Timeless Lifestyle Block Wedding in Hawke’s Bay Gemma and Adam celebrated their love surrounded by friends and family on their beautiful family lifestyle block. Their day was filled with joy, laughter, and so much love as they soaked in every special moment together.Gemma captivated in Hope by Jenny Yoo — a light and floaty luxe chiffon gown featuring a draped scoop cowl neckline, flowing long sleeves, and a softly draped skirt with an elegant split. The covered buttons extending to the hem added a timeless classic finish to the gown. She completed her bridal look with our cut edge double pearl veil, an elegant touch that perfectly complemented her gown.We hope you enjoy scrolling through their special day as much as we loved being a part of it. What was it that made this particular wedding dress catch your eye and fall in love?I loved the fitted bodice and the fact that the dress was off the shoulder with sleeves. The material was so soft, which made the dress so comfortable and light to wear.Tell us about your search for the dress and the experience at Astra Bridal.I tried a couple of local boutiques in Hawke’s Bay before coming to Astra Bridal, but I left those feeling like I hadn’t quite found the one yet. I had a few dresses from the website that I was keen to try, but surprisingly, the dress I fell in love with wasn’t one of those!When I visited Astra Bridal in Wellington, the team were so helpful in finding dresses and styles that I liked and that suited my body shape. When I tried on Hope by Jenny Yoo, I knew it was the one — it fit like a glove! Tell us your story, how you both met, and the proposal.We actually met at the pub — very old school of us! Weve now been together for over seven years and have achieved some great things together, such as travelling the world and renovating a new home.As for the proposal, Adam had planned a secret proposal at the beach for my birthday. Unfortunately, I had different ideas about how I wanted to spend the day, and we didn’t end up going to the beach! Plan B had to be put into action, and he proposed at home, disguising my ring as a birthday present. Although it wasn’t the proposal he had originally planned, it was lovely! What was your favourite part of the day?The whole day was amazing — they say your wedding day is the best day of your life, and it truly was. Tell us about your wedding day as a whole. We were so lucky to have a beautiful, sunny Hawke’s Bay day for our wedding. The boys started their day with a round of golf, and the girls had a champagne breakfast whilst getting ready. Our makeup and hair stylists were amazing – everyone looked so good!We chose to have a first look and our bridal party photos before the ceremony. It was so nice to be able to see each other intimately and calm our nerves before the ceremony. We also had lots of friends and family who travelled far to celebrate with us, so it was nice to be able to have more time to spend with them afterwards.Our ceremony took place in the garden, and then we moved out to the paddock area for our reception. It was so special to be able to have our wedding at my childhood home, and the place looked amazing thanks to George & Co and Flock Events.We then drank, ate lots of great food, and partied the night away. We couldn’t have asked for a better day all round! Finally, what is your biggest piece of advice for brides to be? It’s cliché, but don’t sweat the small stuff. People don’t even notice half of the things you stress about. Also, make sure you stop and remember to enjoy yourself before, during, and after the big day — as brides, we’re often so busy trying to make sure everything runs smoothly that we can forget to enjoy it. It goes by so fast! Salon Photographer Flowers Hair Makeup Marquee Furniture Cake Jewellery Suits Catering Astra Bride Gemma wearing the Hope wedding dress by Jenny Yoo. This fun and timeless lifestyle block wedding took place in Hawkes Bay, New Zealand.
