MONIQUE & REWI | PARIHOA FARM

There is so much we love about this wedding! From the theming, the flowers, the colour palate, to the brides to-die-for dress. But most of all, we are in love with this venue! We can understand why as soon as Monique and Rewi saw Parihoa Farm that they wanted to get married there! The view over the ocean really is breathtaking. And it’s quite fitting for this couple to get married with the beach included in their day, after a beach proposal. Super cute!

Do you have any tips for other brides & grooms?

Keep lists, choose helpful vendors, make the day special to you as a couple, things may not all go to plan and that’s okay.

What were the highlights on the day:

The highlight of the day was definitely the sunset. This absolutely made our wedding. All the guest went outside to watch the sunset.

Our love story began… 

Our wedding story began in 2017. I never believed in “when you know, you just know” until I met Rewi.
