Christina and Kim | Poderi Crisci Italian Wedding

Christina and Kim’s love story began as a quiet connection at work. Gradually, it blossomed into a beautiful relationship that felt natural and meant-to-be. Over time, their bond grew deeper, culminating in a romantic New Year’s Day proposal. On the serene shores of Rocky Bay Beach, Kim asked Christina to marry him. This cherished moment marked the beginning of their wedding journey.

Their shared vision for an intimate, European-inspired wedding led them to Poderi Crisci. This stunning vineyard on Waiheke Island offered the perfect blend of Italian charm and rustic elegance. Surrounded by sprawling landscapes, Christina and Kim felt it was their dream setting. Poderi Crisci’s natural beauty and Italian ambiance perfectly matched their vision. With a soft palette of light green, white, and blush pink, the decor echoed the simplicity they desired. Indeed, their Poderi Crisci Italian wedding beautifully embraced the romance they imagined.

The celebration began with an outdoor ceremony framed by Poderi Crisci’s picturesque vineyard views. As Christina and Kim exchanged vows, family and friends shared in their joy. It made the moment unforgettable. Afterward, guests enjoyed canapés under the open sky, a welcoming start to the festivities. The highlight of the day was the “long lunch” from 4 to 7 pm. Everyone gathered for a relaxed sit-down meal, which felt like an extended family celebration. The laughter, heartfelt conversations, and delicious food brought warmth to the entire event.

Christina and Kim’s Poderi Crisci Italian wedding perfectly reflected their personalities. They are down-to-earth, deeply connected, and surrounded by love. Their celebration at Poderi Crisci was a beautiful testament to their relationship. It created a day full of happiness and memories that will remain in everyone’s hearts forever.
