Trent and Louise (nee McCloy) Withers were married at The Farm Chapel in Te Tipua on January 5, 2024, surrounded by cherished family and friends

Mrs Withers said everything about the wedding worked out perfectly.

"We were originally going to get married in December 2024, but last year in August we wondered why we were waiting for so long and just decided to do it," she said.

"Some of my family members were out from Japan and Scotland for my grandfather's 80th and after finding our vendors were available to help out, we took that as a sign. We both feel incredibly blessed being able to share our special day with all eight of our grandparents."

The couple chose a rustic theme for their wedding which was held outside on The Farm Chapel grounds.

"Our bridesmaid dresses, flowers, napkins and centerpieces were all burnt-orange coloured.

"We thought the burnt orange would look good with the blue of the church on site and its always a colour I have liked," Mrs Wither said.
