Ashton & Scott

Ashton & Scott’s ceremony took place in Wanaka, New Zealand, such a picturesque location for the couple to exchange vows.

Our bridal muse, has chosen the Shelby gown with the most amazing bubble sleeve additions.

Our Shelby gown is for the carefree bride. A gown that lets you shine, Shelby gives you simplicity in all the right ways; a stunning V-Neckline and straps with just the right thickness, a fit and flare shape with crepe fabric that hugs your curves in all the right places, and then? We pair all that gorgeousness with the most stunning low back that elongates you alongside the gathered train.

“Scott and I met in Portugal, and from the very beginning, our story was one of adventure, distance, and unwavering love. We spent three years navigating long-distance—me back in New Zealand for university , Scott in Brisbane for his studies—through time zones, flights, and even a pandemic. Finally, we were reunited, and life led us on another move across the country for Scott’s work.

We knew we wanted our wedding to be personal, so we chose my childhood home in Wanaka, my parents’ property, as the place where we’d say “I do.” It was the most magical day, surrounded by our closest family and friends, with a dance floor that absolutely went off! My Karen Willis Holmes gown was everything I had dreamed of—elegant, timeless, and made for celebrating a love that had already conquered so much.”  – Ashton
