EVA’S LITTLE BLACK BOOK
Recommended Hawke’s Bay wedding vendors & accommodation
Hawke’s Bay is one of New Zealand’s leading destination wedding regions and as a result has some of the country’s best vendors and venues. If you are planning a Hawke’s Bay wedding, we highly recommend you ‘shop local’ to benefit from the strong networks and local knowledge held by those who live and breathe Hawke’s Bay weddings. 15 years as a Napier photographer and a lifetime living in the region has enabled Eva to connect with vendors who aren’t just great at what they do, but great fun to work with.
