Auckland wedding | Markovina Vineyard Estate | Gavin and Angela
Gavin and Angela’s Markovina Estate wedding was a relaxed, joyful celebration filled with laughter, love, and plenty of fun. Their day perfectly reflected who they are as a couple — easygoing, modern, and a little playful.
Their love story began online, where Gavin’s persistence paid off. After months of messages, he finally convinced Angela to meet him for lunch. Along the way, there were already some funny mishaps — like the bouquet of flowers he tried to send to her house but accidentally delivered to her neighbour instead! Luckily, the charm (and determination) worked, and that very first lunch date marked the start of something lasting.
When it came to their wedding day, Gavin and Angela wanted it to feel relaxed, chilled, and fun — and that’s exactly what it was. Guests gathered at the beautiful Markovina Estate in Auckland, surrounded by lush gardens and rustic charm, to celebrate in an atmosphere that felt effortless and full of warmth.

From the ceremony through to the lively reception, the details tied together seamlessly to reflect their vision.
Every part of the day carried the easygoing energy that defines Gavin and Angela’s relationship — proof that when you keep things simple and fun, you create the most memorable celebrations.
