The Hawke's Bay wedding event of the year was back on Sunday.
Many took the opportunity to visit the magnificent grounds of historic Mangapapa Petit Hotel on the outskirts of Havelock North, where they could enjoy a glass of wine, listen to live music, talk to wedding professionals and view the latest fashions and trends.
The popular outdoor Mangapapa Wedding Affair is one of a kind in Hawke's Bay - it's more than a wedding expo, it's a wedding experience, with everything set to a garden party theme.
New to the event this year was a fashion show featuring stunning creations from RSVP Bridal Couture, suits for the groom and groomsmen from Van Meer and some beautiful outfits for bridesmaids, flower girls and page boys.
More than 50 wedding professionals were on hand to help plan that special wedding day covering everything from bridal wear, hair, makeup and jewellery to photography and bridal bouquets.
