Real Wedding: Kate & Leigh, The Heritage Hotel Wedding & Reception

In a tale as sweet as their first ice cream date, Kate and Leigh tied the knot at the stunning Heritage Hotel in Queenstown. Their love story began with a serendipitous swipe on Bumble and continued with Leigh ensuring ice cream was on the agenda for many dates, despite neither having a particular fondness for it. This heartfelt gesture marked the beginning of a relationship filled with laughter and love. 🍦❤️

Their wedding day was a picturesque celebration, framed by the majestic Remarkables and the serene Lake Wakatipu. Their love soared high above the shores of Lake Wakatipu as they took a helicopter ride on their wedding day, capturing breathtaking photos against the backdrop of the majestic nature.  Surrounded by friends and family from across the globe, Kate and Leigh’s journey from playful ice cream dates to a beautiful, laughter-filled ceremony was nothing short of magical✨

The reception was a dazzling affair under a canopy of fairy lights, featuring a champagne tower that sparkled almost as brightly as the newlyweds. With a DJ setting the vibe, the dance floor was alive with joyous steps and heartfelt moments, making it a night to remember for everyone present.
