“If we elope in Queenstown in summer, can we sti “If we elope in Queenstown in summer, can we still get photos in the snow?”⁠ ⁠ This question comes up a lot. And the answer is… possibly.⁠ ⁠ The standard mountaintop locations around Queenstown can be snowy or snow-free depending on the season and conditions. If snow is really important to you, we can also look at helicopter options that head further into the Southern Alps. ⁠ ⁠ What we won’t do is promise you snow on a particular mountain six months in advance. Mountains are rather uncooperative like that.⁠ ⁠ Tell us what you’re hoping for and we can help you choose the season and landing options that give you the best fit.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @ricky.b.good.photography
When you picture getting married in Queenstown, ch When you picture getting married in Queenstown, chances are you’re picturing somewhere outdoors.⁠ ⁠ But you don’t have to.⁠ ⁠ A chapel ceremony gives you something completely different… a defined aisle, everyone gathered together in one intimate space, and none of your guests checking the clouds every four minutes.⁠ ⁠ You can still head out afterwards for those big Queenstown landscapes, but the ceremony itself gets to feel a little more traditional.⁠ ⁠ For couples who love Queenstown but always imagined themselves walking down a chapel aisle, you can absolutely have both.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @hollywallacephotosfilms
We sometimes see couples worry that there won’t We sometimes see couples worry that there won’t be “enough” happening at their reception.⁠ ⁠ Enough entertainment. Enough activities. Enough surprises.⁠ ⁠ Most weddings don’t need more things added to them. They need enough space for the good things already happening.⁠ ⁠ A champagne tower might become the big moment after the ceremony. Later there might be speeches and dancing. In between, people eat, drink, wander around, talk to someone they haven’t seen for years and actually enjoy being at the wedding.⁠ ⁠ That counts too.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @katerobergephotography
Private villa weddings give you a different kind o Private villa weddings give you a different kind of celebration. One long table filled with your favourite people. An in-house caterer preparing dinner. Wine being poured, speeches happening from wherever someone happens to be sitting, and nobody being ushered out because the venue is closing.⁠ ⁠ Basically, all the good bits of having everyone over to your house for dinner… without spending the afternoon chopping onions and panic-cleaning the bathroom.⁠ ⁠ Add Queenstown mountains outside the windows and a professional team taking care of everything happening inside them, and you’ve got a pretty good way to spend a wedding day.⁠ ⁠ Then... when you’ve finally had enough champagne, you can simply go down the hall to bed.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ This package is just one of many different styles of Queenstown Wedding Packages in our repitoire. Curious? We'd love to tell you more!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @queenstownweddings⁠ @alpineimagecompany
PSA: You can have a Queenstown wedding package and PSA: You can have a Queenstown wedding package and still invite your friends. Quite a lot of them, actually.⁠ ⁠ Wedding packages are often associated with elopements, but ours don’t stop at two people. Alongside our elopement options, we have Intimate Wedding Packages for up to 25 people and Small Wedding Packages for weddings of 25 to 60 guests.⁠ ⁠ And these are proper weddings. Ceremony, guests, reception, food, drinks, flowers, photography and all the celebrating that comes with having your favourite people in Queenstown with you.⁠ ⁠ Depending on the package, you could get married at a chapel, on a rooftop, at Walter Peak, Millbrook Resort, NZ High Country, a private estate or another carefully chosen Queenstown setting. There are also custom options if none of the existing packages quite fit what you have in mind.⁠ ⁠ The point of choosing a package isn’t to give you a cookie-cutter wedding. It gives you a starting point, with many of the big pieces already brought together by people who know the venues, suppliers and logistics involved.⁠ ⁠ Which can be particularly useful when you’re sitting in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Auckland or halfway around the world trying to work out how on earth you organise a wedding in Queenstown. @simplyperfectnz
There’s a lot more to Arthur’s Point than a ve There’s a lot more to Arthur’s Point than a very good spot to get married.⁠ ⁠ In 1862, gold was discovered here on the banks of the Shotover River. What followed was the largest gold rush Otago had seen, with miners arriving in their hundreds hoping to make their fortune.⁠ ⁠ More than 160 years later, the river is still at the centre of life here… although these days, we’re much more likely to be standing beside it with a bouquet than a gold pan. (Although you still can go and find yourself some gold!)⁠ ⁠ That's just one of the things that we love about getting married in Queenstown. There are endless stories of love woven into these mountains and valleys, and so many go back long before any of us arrived. 🤍 ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @wildfolkphotography
