We are very pleased to be recommended as one of the BEST wedding locations in New Zealand! The Olive Grove is such a beautiful spot and we are so happy to share it with our lovely couples. Thank you Rentabus.co.nz

Please contact Emma on 021 222 1375 or email [email protected] to enquire about having your wedding at The Olive Grove looking out over the beautiful Lake Wanaka.

If you’ve already said “yes” to the one, planning the wedding is likely the next step. We know it can be stressful, with finding the right dress, the budget, invitations, and the future mother-in-law to contend with. On top of all that, is the burning question of where you will get married?

There seems to be a lot of uncertainty around the public taking the right actions to self isolate after arriving in the country.
Raspberry creek and the Olive grove both have weddings tomorrow.
Both fall below the government’s 100 cap on gatherings.
We take these restrictions very seriously and have taken action to ensure the safety of all that will be on site.
We Follow the ministry of health guidelines.
Implement our own safe workplace practices over and above what is our regular practice.

As of next weekend, Raspberry Creek has postponed all weddings until later in the year.

We can only hope everything will be back to normal by then!

Stay safe everyone

If anyone would like further clarification on the procedure we have in place, please contact Emilie on 021374844

Our priority is the health & safety of our precious community …and you ALL!!

We are committed to fulfilling our obligations to create wonderful weddings and events.
We also hold our breaths as the upcoming decisions to hold large scale events going forward.
