When Annelies and Tim first approached On My Hand, Annelies mentioned that she was really passionate about flowers, this was due to her Dutch heritage and flowers being a big thing in her home when she was a child.

Why have just one party, when you can have two? That is exactly what Nicole and Billy chose to do when they got married at a private property in Matarangi in March . They had such a clear vision of what they wanted and we were absolutely thrilled to be part of bringing it to life.

Camille and Malone were an incredible couple with incredible taste. Their brief was to create florals that were wild and unkempt but linked to the setting for their nuptials – Poronui Station, which is a hunting and fishing lodge 40 mins from Taupō, on SH5. Bearing in mind that it was a beautifully desolate forest setting, we used a base of kanuka and eucalyptus.
