Wānaka and Queenstown wedding planning packages

The unparalleled locations, the dreamlike photos, joyous faces - a New Zealand wedding is truly unbeatable.

But I know- planning a wedding can feel daunting. The same thing that makes our weddings truly spectacular can also be their undoing; unpredictable alpine environments, helicopter permits, unexpected weather. This is where I come in: with spreadsheets in hand and a wealth of local knowledge I take the hassle out of wedding planning and let you just fully embrace the adventure of the day.

My Queenstown and Wānaka wedding packages aren’t just a ‘how to’ checklist, but the framework on which you can layer your individualistic style and vision for the day, with a built-in ‘plan b’ if you need it.
