SHOULD I HIRE A WEDDING VIDEOGRAPHER?
This is probably one of the most asked questions in the wedding industry and we completely understand why. The cost of hiring a wedding photographer alone can be very costly and the budget of any couple can only go so far. However, season after season we hear nothing but joy from couples who had their wedding documented on video expressing relief and comfort that they have something a photograph can never capture.
Michael & Grace’s stunning wedding at Mudbrick Vineyard on Waiheke Island was a heartfelt celebration of love that began in the most unexpected way. Captured by Mata Films, Auckland wedding videographer, this cinematic film showcases a cross-continental love story set against one of New Zealand’s most iconic wedding venues.

Love stories often begin in the most unexpected places, and for this charming couple, it all started at choir camp in beautiful New Zealand. The bride, an adventurous American, met the groom, a Kiwi with a voice like no other, in a serendipitous twist of fate. Their connection was instant, as the bride made the first move, igniting a spark that the groom couldn't resist. Their shared love for life, fun, and creativity has endeared them to everyone they've met, making it no surprise that their wedding, held at the enchanting Mudbrick Vineyard in Waiheke, Auckland, was a day filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable moments. It's an honor to capture the beautiful journey of this fun-loving, crazy, and creative couple on their special day, and we invite you to witness their love story in the video above.
