Well there is one thing for certain, this New Zealand bride sure does know how to accessorize. From the gorgeous faux fur shrug her mother made (!) to her handsome hubby – she obviously knows what looks good. And this wedding sure looks good. It’s a bit of old Hollywood meets vineyard wedding, and the images from Sutherland Kovach Studio prove it was most certainly a match. So be sure to accessorize your day with the gallery of even more gorgeous images.

Moana and Leon, together since high school, chose a lovely Saturday in early spring for their wedding at Ascension Wine Estate in Matakana, New Zealand. Moana wanted an ‘old Hollywood’ look for her dress and found a beautiful one in antique gold, which she accessorized with a veil held in place by two vintage butterfly combs which had belonged to her grandmother. September is still a little chilly in NZ, and so her mother made shrugs for the bride and bridesmaids out of faux fur. Super easy to do, and added a little ‘je ne sais quoi’!
