GREEK WEDDING IN FIJI - ALEXIA + PETER

Our 2016 couldn't start in a better way!! A wedding in Fiji with an extraordinary couple from  a big greek comunity in Wellington (New Zealand) was a great experience!

 January is not the best season for having a wedding there, so much wet and hot, but this was a very special wedding for us.

In particular for me (Laura) was a special one because i'm half greek and spending all my holiday in Greece when i was child, i can feel it closer to me.

The culture, the traditions and a lot of details where for me like "home".

Alexia and Peter told us from the beginning they would like to have a greek-orthodox ceremony and they had it in a small and total white church in Lautoka. 

While a very hot summer wind was blowing and fijian children playing with dogs outside, they had typical religious ceremony, with the exanging of the rings and the crowning, as a greek wedding

Than they had the reception, after bridal party shoots, at the Flying Fish restaurant at the Sheraton Hotel . The location is awesome, imperial tables on the beach, surrounded by white flowers everywhere, a lot of them were hanging down from the ceiling. Very fijian style!!

And as all the greek weddings they had a great party on the beach with greek music and a lot of dances. (Of course thay couldn't miss the tradition of break the dishes during the typical dance, as a big wish for the new family).

But now let's see how magic and romantic was this wedding!

Thank you very much Alexia and Peter for gave us this fantastic opportunity of be there and share with us your beautiful day!

ENGAGEMENT IN BETHELLS BEACH, NEW ZEALAND - AIMEE+NICK

Aimee and Nick are one of the most genuine couple we have ever met during our stay in New Zealand.

They hosted us for 3 days in their sea-view apartment on the east coast one hour out of Auckland. From the beginning, when we received the first e-mail from Aimee some months ago, we understood how much they are in love with photography and surf as we are.

If you haven't seen their beautiful work yet, you absolutely must have a look FRANK&PEGGY.COM

You will fill your eyes with awesome pictures from amazing weddings in our lovely New Zealand.

During our stay we have decided to spend some hours together in the beautiful Bethells Beach on the west coast. After a short walk we arrived on a breathtaking landscape. Huge black sand dunes, why  don't we stop there for  a couple of shoots? In the meantime the sun was going down so we dediced we won't to miss a beautiful red sunset on the beach.

This is absolutely one of the places you must have on your wishlist, so write it down.
