Tom & Ingrid, Havelock North Wedding, by Michelle Fey for Eva Bradley Photography

Was it love at first sight or third sight? It depends who you ask for the answer. I was lead to believe that the first date may have needed a lick and polish but in the end love conquers all. Mr. & Mrs. Hayden started out as a long distance love affair that ended with "I do" and "I'm moving home!" Tom & Ingrid's wedding was picture-perfect, starting with getting married at Iona then a reception at Ingrid's parents beautiful home overlooking Mt. Erin. It was the realisation of a little girl's long-held dream - Ingrid put in her order many years ago, requesting a giant front lawn because one day she'd find Mr. Right and celebrate her wedding right on that spot. Job done, box ticked.
