As versatile as it is impressive, invite your guests to enjoy for themselves the elegance and charm of this Victorian gem. With attractive grounds spacious enough for a large marquee, and plenty of on-site parking, Highwic is suitable for a wide range of functions including corporate dinners, cocktail parties and wedding receptions. Central but private, it is a haven in the heart of Newmarket, Auckland's premier shopping precinct. The motorway nearby means easy access from the central city, north or west Auckland and the airport. Out of town guests can find accommodation in a choice of motels an easy walking distance away. A tree canopied rise next to the croquet court is ideal for a garden ceremony, or you can choose to be married in the ballroom. The availability of both spaces means you don't have to be anxious about the weather. Being able to hold your ceremony and reception at the one venue saves a lot of hassle and hold-ups for your guests. A marquee wedding set on the spacious lawn at Highwic could be a highlight of your special day. Let us arrange a romantic marquee complete with clear walls so you can enjoy the view, luxury silk drapes and roof liner, lantern lighting, dance floor, flooring, and tables and chairs.

Voted one of the world’s top 10 barn wedding venues, Tarureka Estate is a wedding and conference venue in the Wairarapa, one hour north of Wellington. The beautiful houses and historic barn on the 8 acre estate offer everything you need for your wedding weekend, special event, mini-break or winter getaway. The sensitively restored historic barn “The Loft” is the perfect setting for your country wedding, with a chapel/banquet area upstairs and bar and dance floor downstairs. The Loft can accommodate 120 guests for a sit-down banquet and wood-fired heating makes it ideal for winter as well as summer weddings. We are thrilled that it is now almost as popular in the winter – because we believe it is the perfect winter wedding venue. The cosy wood fire ensures that everyone is very warm, no matter what the weather outside, and the sparkling lights and glowing totara beams create a wonderfully romantic atmosphere.
