Mountain Weddings offer stunning elopement adventures amongst the mountains of Queenstown & Wanaka in New Zealand with an emphasis on authentic storytelling

Mountain Weddings is run by Warren & Steph - a dedicated and passionate wedding team from the North, having traded in the surf of rugged Bethells Beach and set up our new roots in the South amongst the mountains, on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. We’ve been in the wedding industry for a combined 20 years, indulging in many areas of the photography industry around the world. Our passion for weddings

has taken us to the frozen lochs of Scotland, to the colorful reefs of the islands and now, rocky mountain peaks of Queenstown, New Zealand. Mountain Weddings is a bespoke mountain wedding planning service – creating your dream intimate wedding or elopement in one of the most beautiful wedding destinations in the world. Get in touch with us to hear more about how we can help you with your wedding adventure!

Finally, the Bassils! ❤️ A big congratulations to Sarah and Alex for getting married TODAY!!!

We had an incredible afternoon flying around the mountains, starting with their lakeside ceremony at the beautiful Lochnagar, a crisp snow landing looking back at Tyndall Glacier, enjoy breath-taking vistas and a picnic at Coromandel Peak and finally climbing epic rocks in the afternoon sun surrounded by mountains at Vanguard Peak. Talk about an adventure! 🙌

It was a blast to spend the day with you both and we hope you have the best honeymoon!!! Enjoy being married!!! 😄🫶🥂🏔️🚁💍

This August is throwing a few extra curve balls our way, with unsettled weather and challenging forecasts usually reserved for spring 💛 Luckily, we have a team of brilliant pilots behind us combined with understanding and passionate suppliers who help us bend over backwards to pull things off. Sometimes this means rescheduling plans or compromising on locations in an effort to work with what Mother Nature has on offer 🏔️⚡️🌦️ These kinds of conditions call for us to lean in to the fundamentals of what it’s all about - getting married to your best friend, taking on the world together, and having fun in the wilderness 😍

Here’s Morven and Rory doing just that, on a freakishly windy day that saw us traverse Lochnagar and the Rees Valley while laughing in the wind and holding each other tight to keep warm 😍 Although we can’t change the weather for you and don’t always have a crystal ball, we are here to help and will always do our best to bring good vibes, offer experienced advice and capture whatever moody magic there is! ☃️

Oooh sweet niblets! Throwback to these gorgeous humans and their winter adventure. Adam and Kahn were the “ultimate wedding guests” for 10 years until it was finally their turn and (if we can say so ourselves), they made the best decision to prioritise the things we that they love and enjoy - snow, skiing, travel and food 🙌 So, eloping in Queenstown was the perfect fit 😍🥳 Especially after Covid stopped us all from travelling for so long 🩵 We so enjoyed pulling their beautiful itinerary together and adventuring around the mountains with these two - thank you guys for having us! 🥰

It’s been a long time coming but we’re finally breaking the seal with these legends - Tiffany and Khang 🖤 While a whole host of things has been keeping us busy over the past few years, from Covid and life in general, to our growing team and increased interest in destination weddings…our demand for intimate weddings has skyrocketed. These amazing gatherings, filled with your day ones and VIPs, are so special. The true hybrid between elopements and weddings - still with a taste of adventure but also with a few special details (and cake!) - they are such a lovely option for anyone wanting to celebrate in Queenstown or Wanaka without compromising on your guest list. So if you’re wanting a wedding in the mountains with a party in town afterwards - you know where to find us 🌟🥰

We’re back here on Insta with irregularly scheduled content coming your way 😉 Shoutout to all our gorgeous couples that have been tagging away and sharing their experiences online so y’all know that we are still in business 🙈

(And yes, we snuck in a Taylor Swift reference 😉)

Hello! 👋 We thought it was about time to share our faces around here again. This is our Mountain Weddings team: Warren, Steph, Anaïs, Chris and Rosa. We also cannot forget about our office pup, Willow! 🐶 We have a shared passion for incredible outdoors, helping create the best days for our lovely couples and, of course, photography. 🏔️🚁📷

Mountain Weddings was founded in 2015 by Warren, to help couples seek true adventure and to create something truly unique amidst what was originally a very narrow helicopter wedding scene at the time.

Since then, our team, our offerings and the wider industry have grown considerably. Warren is now our head photographer, leading our 4-person photography team. In 2019, Steph officially joined and became a co-owner of Mountain Weddings. Steph brought her wedding planning expertise and a dedication to client-focused experiences.

We have countless adventures to share and celebrate from the past 9 years but for now, here’s a few team photos ⚡️

1: Warren and Steph on Franz Josef Glacier during the rocky COVID months of 2021. Warren was harnessed into the H500 with the doors off, so he could capture some incredible photos of Mt Cook and the glaciers.
2: Warren at Lake Quill, with Heliworks’ H130
3: Rosa at Tyndall Shelf
4: Chris at Coromandel Peak
5: Anaïs at Lake Erskine
6: Steph at Lake Hayes
7: Willow in the autumn foliage
8: Wedding day selfie with Issy and Dave at Earnslaw Burn, featuring Pilot Eddie (a fan fave!)
9: Team Astro night at Homestead Bay, with Ashton who has headed back home to Auckland but was such a treat to have with us in 2022 + 2023.
10: Aoraki Mt Cook (“the cloud piercer”) with an inversion layer over the Tasman Valley and Lake Pukaki. (From that doors-off flight!) We are very lucky to often see stunning landscapes with our job but being this deep in the Southern Alps was truly breathtaking. The mighty expanse of the glaciers along with the quiet and solitude - serenity - left us both speechless and in awe of the power of Mother Nature. It was truly majestic. If you love the mountains, we would 100% recommend making the trip to the West Coast and flying with .nz
