Ashleigh & Bree's Wedding | A Heartfelt Celebration at Markovina Vineyard Estate

Ashleigh and Bree tied the knot in an emotional, love-filled celebration at Markovina Vineyard Estate—captured beautifully by Mata Films in collaboration with Soul Sisters Photography.

As an Auckland wedding videographer, I’ve been lucky enough to witness all kinds of love stories—but Ashleigh and Bree’s story is one I won’t forget.

These two incredible women found each other almost by chance, and from the very beginning, they just clicked. What started as a beautiful friendship quickly turned into something deeper. From meeting each other's families to sharing everyday moments, their love grew naturally—and eventually, Ashleigh proposed.

A Day Surrounded by Love

Their wedding was nothing short of magical. Held at the stunning Markovina Vineyard Estate, the day was a heartfelt celebration filled with their closest friends and family. Despite the moody, cloudy skies, the energy was joyful and warm. Ashleigh’s extended family even flew in from the UK to witness this unforgettable moment—proof that love knows no distance.

Why Markovina is a Dream Wedding Venue in Auckland

If you’re looking for a wedding venue in Auckland that combines natural beauty, privacy, and elegance, Markovina Vineyard Estate should be at the top of your list.

Tucked away in Kumeū, this venue offers picturesque gardens, an enchanting ceremony space surrounded by mature trees, and a reception area that brings in plenty of natural light. Whether rain or shine, it’s a photographer and videographer’s dream location. There are countless cinematic spots around the property that let couples like Ashleigh and Bree shine without needing much setup at all.

The Power of Collaboration – Soul Sisters Photography

One of the things that made this day extra special was teaming up with the amazing Lara from Soul Sisters Photography. Lara has this effortless way of making couples feel relaxed in front of the camera, which shows in every frame she captures.

Working with a photographer who shares your energy and creative vision always elevates the experience—not just for us as professionals, but for the couple too. We were in sync all day, helping Ashleigh and Bree feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated.
