KAURI BAY WEDDINGS

Welcome

Let the dedicated wedding team at Kauri Bay take your thoughts and ideas and turn them into your perfect day. We will organise every fine detail from bespoke menus and arrangements to specialised transport and entertainment options.

Your wedding with us will start with the collection of guests from the desired location and ensure they are transferred to The Lodge in comfort and style.  Your ceremony may be held on-site; we have all-weather options catered for boasting panoramic views.

Activities are available for your guests to enjoy and multiple bridal photography locations are available on the property.  A specially tailored menu to suit you and your guests will be served while you continue to enjoy the day’s celebrations.

YOUR CEREMONY

An idyllic setting
provides a breath-taking backdrop

Your ceremony may be held onsite, as we have covered all weather conditions, each boasting panoramic views. Our ceremony areas both provide a romantic and intimate space to share your vows.

YOUR RECEPTION

Delicious cuisine, fine NZ wine and outstanding service

After you’ve said ‘I do,’ your guests can enjoy canapés, bubbles and a range of light-hearted activities while your photographer takes some snaps before guiding you around the property to explore a number of secluded locations that provide the perfect backdrop for your memories.

YOUR CUISINE

Exceptional Menu Offerings

Enjoy a delicious seasonally crafted menu prepared by our resident Head Chef Jeroen. Celebrating farm to table ingredients, along with carefully selected wine pairings, your cuisine can focus on the Shared Platter Style or a more traditional Three Course setting.

YOUR STAY

The Painted Barn

The Painted Barn is a privately-owned accommodation option for the night before and/or the night of your Wedding. The Barn comprises of 2 bedrooms, 3 Queen beds, 1 King bed, a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, 2 large living areas, pool table and balconies with views overlooking the farm.

We also have a list of local Air BnB’s if you are looking at spending the night away.

To the whole KBB team,

Just WOW. Simon said this on the night and it’s so true, you guys are the absolute best in the business, there is no doubt about that. We are so incredibly grateful for the service every single one of you provided, in the lead up to the day to the day itself. Danica, Danielle, Joel, Grace, Jeroen, Amanda, Ollie and every single person on the night, you are all amazing. We had so many guests comment on how impressive it was that the staff knew their names as they came round pouring drinks, and Joel & Danielle thank you for your energy and calmness on the day even amidst the passing rain clouds!

Jeroen, I lost count of how many of our guests said that was the best wedding food they’d ever had. It was all unbelievably delicious. The burrata dish was my absolute highlight and Simon can not stop talking about how good the fish was (was it poached? How was it cooked? He is obsessed!) Thank you so much again for collaborating with us and allowing us to create a menu so perfect for us. Even my Italian family of big eaters who are impossible to please, were pleased! That’s the ultimate victory.

Ollie, we’ve mentioned this already but we’re so grateful for everything you did for us and your energy and dedication is second to none.

It was the perfect day, and we owe that to all of you. As I left at the end of the night, I felt a touch of disappointment that it was all over, not knowing when I would be back. But we have every intention to be back whenever we can, and hopefully will join you at one of your Winter series dinners.

As a small token of our appreciation, if any of you didn’t get one of my ceramic bud vases and want one, let me know and we’ll drop some off.

Thanks so much again,

Kaz & Si xxx

Thank you! It was the best day ever and we truly LOVED every minute of it. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue and team – so thank you!

I have attached some photos for you from our sneak peeks.

Our Kauri Bay experience was honestly above and beyond our expectations. From the get go nothing was too hard and the team was there to help with anything we needed. The day ran so perfectly and smoothly thanks to your team and I honestly can’t think of one thing that didn’t go to plan. Our guests are raving about the venue and how beautiful it is there, how great the food is and the service. We picked a goodie! Dave wants us to come back and renew our vows there next year hahaha. But seriously, thank you so much guys. Our day was amazing thanks to you!

Kindest,
Shani

Hi guys,

A massively huge thank you for the effort you put into Saturday night. Mike and I, along with our families really want to pay you huge homage for the bending-over-backwards-hospitality you showed us – unbelievable!
Thank you for accommodating dropping out guests by moving tables pre wedding, helping soaked photographers find dry clothes, helping Mike sort out unruly guests (sorry!) … the countless little things add up and they didn’t go unnoticed – thank you!
Thank you so much again,
Amy & Mike
