WHERE TO WED

While we simply adore traditional spaces, we’re saying ‘yes’ to finding a wedding spot that’s perfectly suited to you.

Break free from tradition with a modern venue

For centuries, it has been customary to marry your beloved in a religious house, under a white canopied tent, or inside a majestic stately home. But over time, couples have decided to break free from tradition and are instead opting to wed in regional parks, restaurants, and even aquariums (true story!). The desire to find the next best thing is filtering into the details as well, with cakes swapped for cheese towers and paper invitations for e-vites.

We take a look at some wonderful venues with a difference that have popped up around New Zealand – and let you know where to find them and what to ask.
