Pru + Jordan
There's something beautiful about blending cultures and traditions.
Nestled in the cozy Lower Hutt area of Silverstream Retreat, Prudence and Jordan (or Mika, as he’s known in Samoan) exchanged heartfelt "I dos" on a traditional Samoan tapa cloth. The tones perfectly matched Jordan’s outfit and the venue’s vibrant reds.
The rain held off long enough for an outdoor ceremony, followed by moody indoor portraits, and a reception filled with delicious food, cultural performances, and lots of dancing.
Scroll to see some of the joy, warm hugs, happy tears, and laughter that filled this day.
