Katie and Paul came across our Queenstown elopement packages as they were researching eloping from the UK. We had a sweet First Look and some photos with their gorgeous little one, Esme, at their Air BnB in Dalefield. With an expansive field overlooking Coronet Peak, there was plenty of space to have the chopper call in and pick us up! Shortly afterwards we were arriving at the serene Lake Erskine to officially get Katie and Paul hitched. Their ceremony had beautiful, personal vows and also included a water blessing, using the pure alpine water from Lake Erskine itself.
Afterwards, we adventured around the rocky platform looking out to Fiordland before hanging out by the lake again. We also had some Kea visit us, and the beautiful Mount Cook daisies in bloom at Lake Erskine. With a second landing at The Ledge, we popped some champagne and enjoyed the late afternoon sunlight. Heading back to the Air BnB, we had to make the most of golden hour in the paddocks! Katie and Paul jumped on some massive hay bales and danced around in the golden grass – a very happy way to finish their wedding day!
A big big congratulations to you both, Katie and Paul! We loved being a part of your Queenstown elopement and meeting your adorable family! Thank you for spending the day with us and we wish you the absolute best for your bright futures ahead 💕 xx
