Tess & Dave’s Joyful Autumn Wedding at Omahanui
Tess and Dave celebrated their love earlier this year with an unforgettable Autumn wedding—my favourite season for so many reasons! This day was bursting with laughter, love, and pure joy. Tess’s radiant energy and contagious laugh had everyone smiling from start to finish.
One incredibly special moment was when Tess’s dance students surprised her before the ceremony at the local hall. Seeing the kids shower her with hugs and love was truly heartwarming and unlike anything I’ve witnessed at a wedding before. It was such a beautiful reflection of the impact Tess has on those around her.
Omahanui looked absolutely stunning as always, providing the perfect backdrop for their celebration. And let’s not forget the dance floor—this wedding brought some of the most epic dance moves I’ve ever seen! Tess and Dave’s guests truly knew how to party, a rocking night!
Pro Tip for Engaged Couples: Incorporate a personal touch that reflects your unique story or community—like Tess’s dance students showing up for a surprise moment. It’s a meaningful way to make your wedding day even more memorable for everyone involved!
Big props to all the amazing vendors who brought their A-game to make this day so magical.
