Thomas and Sarah were married at the stunning Markovina Vineyard Estate in Kumeū—a lush, garden-filled venue that perfectly suited their warm and timeless love story. As high school sweethearts, their journey together had already spanned years, making their wedding day feel like a natural and joyful continuation of a bond that began long ago.

They chose to say “I do” on the 19th of December—a date that holds special meaning for both families. It’s the same anniversary shared by Thomas’s parents and Sarah’s grandparents, adding an extra layer of significance and legacy to an already emotional day.

Surrounded by native trees, vines, and the soft glow of summer light, Thomas and Sarah exchanged vows in front of their closest loved ones. The celebration that followed was full of laughter, heartfelt moments, and a genuine sense of connection—marking not just the start of a marriage, but the continuation of a beautiful family tradition.
