Hip hip hooray to the start of a new week lovers!

As far as New Zealand weddings go - we cannot get enough of the incredible landscape the country offers, the unique creatives the wedding industry presents and the ever evolving fashion their couples embrace!

In today's REAL BRIDE episode we chat to Gracie Taylor-Hitchcock all about her wedding weekend to now husband Ali which was held picturesque New Zealand.

A few hairy moments in their planning journey added to the "COVID couple" experience, however Gracie + Ali were able to secure their dream day in between lockdowns and the rest of what a couple has to contend with over the last 18 months!

One of the things that drew us to wanting to chat with Gracie in the first place was her unique style and flawless take on a modern yet old-world concept for her wedding day accessories. Gracie wore statement sheer gloves, and a bespoke personalised headpiece. Having a friend who was a milliner allowed Gracie to design her head band around her dress concept - utilising fabric, design ideas and unique elements to become more than a fashion accessory, it took her whole look to the next level.
