Eugene and Elina kicked off their big day by getting ready at separate spots—keeping things exciting and building the anticipation for Elina’s grand walk down the aisle at Waikawa Beach. The beach setting couldn’t have been more perfect, with the sound of the waves and the stunning scenery creating the dreamiest atmosphere for their vows (even if a motor bike did happen to keep going past haha)

After the ceremony, it was time for the fun! The bridal party headed over to a nearby spot for a wee picnic and some photos. There was a whole lot of energy, laughter, and some epic group shots that perfectly captured the joy of the day.

Next up, the reception kicked into gear, and Eugene and Elina made their entrance like absolute rock stars in Eugene’s fully restored old school Mercedes Benz.

The evening and rest of the night was an absolute blur of laughter, dancing, and non-stop celebration as Eugene and Elina partied hard with their closest friends and family.
