Sarah and Jordan's Wedding at Pemberton Gardens in Christchurch
“It was so amazing to have Rowan part of our wedding. He managed to capture all the important parts of our day, and was so lovely to have there. He fitted in seamlessly on the day, and was such a pleasure to deal with! I would recommend him to anybody looking for a videographer for their special day!”
Sarah and Jordan were married on a rainy day in early November at the beautiful Pemberton Gardens, surrounded by their favourite people and the cozy, romantic atmosphere that only a wet-weather wedding can bring.
Their day was brought together by an incredible team of Christchurch wedding vendors, including celebrant Court McCulloch, photographer Susannah Blatchford, hair stylist Monique Woods, makeup artist Stacey Banfield, Bourbon Rose Florist, The Cake Eating Company, DJ4U, and Moveable Feasts.
Despite the rain, the day was felt warm and full of joy.

“It’s a love with the smaller moments, driving to work together and having the most random funny conversations that start their day in the best possible way are just as meaningful as the big moments. Like when Sarah moved to Auckland so that they could be together.”
“I am the luckiest woman in the world to become your wife today. Having someone like you is a rarity, and I can’t make blessings every day that you are in my life”
“Eight years together and I still feel like the luckiest person alive. Winning a thousand scratches couldn’t compare to the jackpot of having you in my life”
“No matter what life brings in the future, they will be there beside one another, listening to each other on the hard days and being there with each other to celebrate the best days because they know that is what is most important is that they are together, that they love one another and that they are happy.”
“They are each other’s first person they want to tell when something amazing happens, but just as equally the person they turn to when something goes wrong and they just need someone to be there. And it all simply means that they are better together and have found such a great love for each other, a love that only continues to grow”

“Sarah and Jordan, individually you are both wonderful young people in your own right, but together you become the very best version of yourselves.”
“You bring such a wonderful balance to each other. You support one another. You celebrate each other’s successes and love without reservation.”
“I heard a quote recently that life is not measured by time, but by amazing moments. And boy, have we been lucky to have had a lot of beautiful moments together.”
Here’s what Sarah had to say upon first receiving the film:
“WOW, what amazing videos to capture our big day!
I am truly in awe of how clever you are to be able to create something like this for us, and we truly love every piece of it.
There is not one thing we would change, we both love it!
P.s I have already sent the link to my mum and dad and my mum thinks she might wear it out as she has already watched it so many times haha!”
