We had our last wedding for the season mid March. We had a houseful of 3 generations staying for 2 nights, which made for a busy time but wonderful experience. We were lucky with the weather although it was a touch on the cool side. We wish the lovely couple all the best in the future.
A lovely fine day for our second to last wedding of the season. A very well planned day with family and friends for such a lovely wedding. We wish Kaylene and Brenton all the best in the future
A few pics from Bess and Trent's wedding a couple of weeks ago. Fabulous flower arrangements. A great day with the lovely couple, family and friends
It's with great sadness that we've had to say goodbye to our beautiful boy Max (Doggie). He passed peacefully at home with much love. He will be missed greatly. Wedding dog extraordinaire, probably in more wedding photos than any other dog. What will we do without the one collie welcoming committee. He was a much loved member of the family and he had the best life full of people, pats and love.
An extremely windy day for the other sister's wedding but none the less it was a lovely ceremony held under the pergola and marquee, out the wind. It was our 1st Non Binary wedding and it was lovely to see so many of the rainbow community as guests. Max the wedding dog even had his rainbow bow tie on. We wish both Daisy & Cassandra all the best.
We've had the absolute pleasure of having 2 sisters married here 2 weeks apart. Abi and Kieran had a very hot day, nearly 30 degrees, thankfully there was a nice cool breeze. A wonderful service and ceremony and some lovely Indonesian food. We wish them both the very best in the future
It is wonderful to see one row of our Pohutakawas in full bloom. We don't often see them all flowering at the same time
We had our last wedding for the year just before Christmas. The weather came right in time for the wedding. Such a lovely couple and family. We were delighted to be able to share their day. We wish them all the very best for their future
Because we have had so much rain this year the water table is very high and we lost access to half the photography sites in the native bush. So we've built a bridge, not the harbour bridge granted, but a bridge just the same
We were delighted to have another wedding here at Connemara with family from overseas. The weather was not what we all hoped for but a wonderful day nonetheless. A lovely couple, we wish them all the best
We had our 1st wedding of the season a couple of weeks ago. Such a lovely young couple. We did appreciate them choosing to get married here. We felt privileged to be part of their day. We wish them all the best for their future!

A selection of decorated arches
We had our last wedding for the current season on Friday 5th May. A wonderful couple from Queensland who only got to see where they were getting married on Monday 1st May. It all started back in February last year with their inquiry and then a Facetime call to talk to us and see our venue over the phone, just after a storm and there was debris from the trees everywhere, so it was not looking it's best. It was such a pleasure to meet Jess and Braydon and their families and have several of them staying. A really wonderful day despite the weather not being ideal. We put out the benches and the gazebo minutes before the ceremony so they could be married outside.
Great night, great job! Lovely couple from Australia

Connemara Lodge was our magical location. Based in Pollok (15 mins from Waiuku) overlooking the Manukau Harbour. This venue offers a Ceremony & Reception area for up to 100 max in one place. Kevin & Grainne are so amazing to work alongside. They open up their home for you and your family for your special day & they become part of your family too. It also offers overnight accommodation (up to 6 ppl) & cooked breakfast the day after. BYO food & drink with an amazing new bar area for easy serving or barrels can be provided to put your drinks and ice in. If you go for the big package you get access to table, chairs, linen, decorations all at your disposal, at no extra cost which helps keep the cost down. It's truly a magical location and it's worth seeing in the flesh! The views are incredible! It's also very affordable compared to what's out there!! Highly recommend!!
Something a little different from Connemara Country Lodge.

Some photos from a recent wedding. Photography by Katrina Cooke. It was such a wonderful day with the couple's family and friends
New seating additions to our deck
A few photos from a recent wedding. A fantastic day and lovely couple, so easy to work with. We were so lucky with the weather
We were sent this yesterday from a lovely couple that were married here some months ago.
It's been over 6 months since we were married but we're still gushing over the wedding and telling everyone how amazing and easy you made it all.
We really can't thank you enough for being such a big part of our big day and all the effort you put in to make it better than my imagination could concoct, including your trapezium act on the gazebo armature and consoling me the night before when I was reading my family's letters.
I've attached a couple of photos in case you wanted to see how incredible your place truly is and how it'll be forever cemented in time for us.
A few photos from our latest wedding, such a beautiful day. The bride arrived in fancy classic car accompanied by a Harley. Everything went smoothly and everyone had a great time. Another successful wedding.
We have been busy during the week making and assembling our 2 hanging floral arrangements. It turned out to be quite a mission to put up, definitely not a 5 minute job.
A few photos from our last wedding, fortunately, the weather was not as bad as forecast. It was a fantastic day with many performances making it extra special. It was a privilege to witness it all
Night time photos of new seated garden area
A few inside photos. of the new addition. All the fridge/freezers, freezer and new glass fronted fridge along with all glassware, champagne buckets, punch bowls, crockery, cutlery and grazing table items now have a new home in one place.
We have finally completed our new Bar/Utility room! It was a massive effort all round with the help of C & C Building and Paul who has been there from the start. Not to mention the countless hours we have put in ourselves. This will be a welcome addition for everyone to use, along with our newly developed seated garden area.
