To put it simply… we love weddings!
Let’s chat about yours.

Say Hello
You don’t need to choose between elegance and ea You don’t need to choose between elegance and ease.⁠ ⁠ Many couples opt for a formal ceremony look, then switch into something fun and practical once the celebrations begin. It’s one of those decisions that feels indulgent at first… and incredibly smart by the end of the night.⁠ ⁠ Comfort, confidence, and a full dance floor tend to go hand in hand.⁠ ⁠ Scroll → to see Monica’s dress change from mountaintop to lakeside.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @ricky.b.good.photography

It keeps guests comfortable, conversations flowing, and the celebration feeling balanced.⁠ ⁠ Because great weddings aren’t about what people should drink… they’re about making sure everyone feels welcome.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @ricky.b.good.photography
What a year 🤍 2025 gave us windswept mountainto What a year 🤍 2025 gave us windswept mountaintops, quiet vows, full dance floors, snowy landings, sunny lakesides… and couples who trusted us with one of the biggest days of their lives. We don’t take that lightly. Ever. To every couple who planned with us, eloped with us, laughed through Plan B moments, and soaked up every second… thank you for letting us be part of your story. To our incredible vendors and creative partners, you make the magic work when it matters most. ✨ And to everyone cheering from the sidelines, scrolling, saving, dreaming… we see you too. Here’s to the year that was, and to everything still to come. We’re ready for 2026… but we’ll always hold 2025 close. 🥂
Between Christmas and New Year is where a lot of w Between Christmas and New Year is where a lot of wedding dreams quietly begin.⁠ ⁠ Not with plans or timelines… just conversations, ideas, and that “what if?” feeling starting to take shape.⁠ ⁠ If you’re newly engaged, this week isn’t about decisions. It’s about letting the excitement settle and imagining what your wedding could look like… big or small, local or somewhere wild.⁠ ⁠ We love this part of the process. It’s where the best plans start. Happy dreaming! ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @emily_adamson

One of our favourite ways to structure the day… One of our favourite ways to structure the day… Adding a heli photoshoot after the ceremony. Here’s why couples love it: 🤍 It creates a natural breather The ceremony is done, the nerves are gone, and you finally get a moment to exhale together; alone. A heli flight gives you space to soak it all in before jumping back into the celebrations. We even suggest taking a few moments to enjoy a glass of bubbles alone (without your photographer) while you’re on the top of the mountain, just to really drop into your special day together. 🤍 It resets the energy of the day After the ceremony, emotions run high. That short window alone together in the heli and on the mountaintop acts like a pause button. When you return, you’re calmer, grounded, and ready to celebrate properly. 🤍 It gives the photographer space to create It allows space for storytelling, not just posing. Post-ceremony heli shoots aren’t about ticking off photos. They give photographers time to capture movement, scale, and connection… without the pressure of the next moment waiting. It’s not about rushing through the day. It’s about pacing it well. This approach works beautifully for elopements, micro weddings, and larger celebrations alike… especially when the views are this good. Thinking about where a heli shoot might fit into your day? That’s exactly the kind of detail we love helping with. @simplyperfectnz 📸 @emily_adamson @queenstownweddings
