How did you learn to design shoes? In my early 20s I worked in interior design, which I loved, but I couldn’t get rid of this nagging shoe thing in the back of my mind. I’d always loved shoes, and was fascinated by their design, texture and materiality.
Real Wedding: Claudia + Tom – Photography by Mickey Ross
We’re both active people with far too many hobbies — boating, golf, fishing and beekeeping. If Tom heads off hunting, I’ll spend the weekend doing yoga. Tom is currently training for his private pilot’s licence, so that will open up some new adventures for us.
Real Wedding: Lucy + Allen – Photography by Danelle Bohane
We’ve just recently returned to New Zealand after spending the most incredible past 4 years living and working in London, which is where we based ourselves to travel the world. We are both travel mad and all of our wedding day styling, food and ideas were inspired from our adventures together.

Real Wedding: Katy & James – Photography by Ryan & Heidi Brown of Forged in the North
We met at a coffee shop in Carlsbad, California. James proposed one morning in bed when I woke up, the morning of my birthday. The day of the wedding was clear, cool, gorgeous. It was an absolutly epic, beautiful day. Then the ceremony started and it began to rain.
Real Wedding: Bailey & Te Miri – Photography by Tim Kelly and Nadine Ellen
Te Miri and I first met at my flat in Wellington eight years ago, in the wee hours of the morning. He thought he was visiting a guy’s home with one of my friends, but when I opened the door – in my knickers – he realised ‘Bailey’ was in fact a female.

Candle of the week – Missoni Home Mediterranio candle at Tessuti

Real Wedding: Tiffany & Jassher – Photography by Rachel Soh & Ben Maurice
About two years before our engagement, Jassher and I were walking through the Hastings Rose Gardens and I thought he was acting a little nervous, as if there was something on the tip of his tongue. He gave me a Double Delight rose that he had illegally plucked from the gardens. It became our favourite … Read more
Real Wedding: Penelope & Graham – Photography by Tim Williams
Graham and I met 11 years ago, when a band he manages was playing in my hometown, but it wasn’t until a few years later, when a friend re- introduced us that we got together and fell in love. Moral of the story: you may meet your soulmate and not even know it until years … Read more
