Relaxed Beach Wedding by Swift & Click

Why hello there! I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend (New Zealander folks that is) despite the mostly miserable weather. I had a fabulous time at the Kate Robinson Planted with Light workshop. Kate did an amazing job, and it was thoroughly enjoyed by all the attendees. We did a fun little shoot with the stunningly gorgeous Claire from Claire Mossong Photography stepping in front of the camera for a change alongside her husband Alex. Hope to have some images to share with you very soon!

Rachel from Swift & Click sent in this gorgeous Papamoa Beach wedding that she worked on with the fabulous Shaye from On My Hand. As friends this was the first time they'd managed to work together on a wedding and I love what they've produced as a team.

Being lovers of the ocean we knew we wanted to get married on the beach, somewhere that felt organic and free. We also wanted a place that had meaning and we felt connected and comfortable. We chose a spot on Papamoa Beach that we spend most of our summer days surfing and playing with our son. It was perfect for a beautiful, simple beach wedding in an environment we love, with the people we love. Our main priorities for the day were having a lot of fun and a party with friends and family, having great photos and having beautiful surroundings. Our vision for our day was a mix of beach, boho and vintage- something really nature inspired to go with the beach theme. To achieve this I acquired the help of Shaye Woolford from On My Hand vintage hire and styling. Shaye really got the vision and style I was after, from the arranging of my bouquets and flower crowns to the hand made details at the ceremony to the decorating and styling of our reception venue.

Round up | Floral Crowns

We've seen quite the resurgence of floral crowns in the past 12-18 months. Both with fresh flowers and woven fabric varieties. What used to belong solely to a more 'hippie' bride, is now becoming more mainstream with so many varieties being displayed. It does lend itself perfectly to that slightly bohemian look, with a perfectly disheveled hair style. From simple ivy or daisy crowns, to more rustic displays with twigs, right down to elaborate floral creations, there is something to suit all kinds of weddings. Whilst it's always nice to have real blooms, it's not always that easy depending on the climate, and there are several pretty faux crowns around. I think the key is that is doesn't overwhelm your face. It needs to work with your dress, and face shape, otherwise you may end up looking swamped by it. Try Whichgoose, Twigs & Honey, Lo Boheme, Mignonne Handmade for a few options.

I adore both of these... mostly because their hairstyles are so perfect with the crown of choice. The one on the right is so perfectly imperfect... loose and flowing to give an ethereal look.

This blue crown is just so striking! And against her incredible hair colour it makes such a statement... a very pretty one!

Can't go wrong with soft romantic flowers.

These two are a little more on the dramatic side, and possible not quite as practical to wear but for sheer impact, they're winners!

Love the sweet simplicity of these ones. They have such a romance to them.

Love this sweet daisy chain one... reminds me of school days, and I'm a big fan of both kale and lambs ear so the right on the right is a favourite... love the texture in it.

And let's not forget about the little ones... I mean it just doesn't get any cuter right?
