One small piece of advice for anyone writing their One small piece of advice for anyone writing their own vows… Don’t make remembering them part of the challenge. Write them down. Wedding-day nerves do funny things to perfectly capable brains, and there’s absolutely no prize for delivering your vows from memory. The important part isn’t remembering every sentence exactly as you wrote it. It’s being present enough to mean it when you say it. 🤍 @simplyperfectnz @ricky.b.good.photography
Wedding transport options:⁠ ⁠ 🚌 Bus.⁠ ⁠ Wedding transport options:⁠ ⁠ 🚌 Bus.⁠ ⁠ 🚗 Car.⁠ ⁠ 🚕 Taxi.⁠ ⁠ 🚢 A 1912 steamship across Lake Whakatipu.⁠ ⁠ The TSS Earnslaw can take your guests from Queenstown across the lake to Walter Peak, where the celebrations can continue at the Colonel’s Homestead. ⁠ ⁠ And for a destination wedding, we love the idea that getting from A to B isn’t simply logistics.⁠ ⁠ It’s another 45 minutes of the day that your guests will never forget.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @real.newzealand⁠
Tiny guests, big question…⁠ Do you have to pay Tiny guests, big question…⁠ Do you have to pay the full guest price for children at your wedding?⁠ ⁠ With our wedding packages, no.⁠ ⁠ There’s no charge for children under two who don’t need a children’s meal. For older children, pricing depends on their age and comes in below the adult cost.⁠ ⁠ So if your guest list includes nieces, nephews, your own little ones or a small army of flower girls, tell us their ages when we’re putting your quote together.⁠ ⁠ We’ll make sure you’re quoted accordingly. ♡
Everyone talks about summer and winter weddings in Everyone talks about summer and winter weddings in Queenstown, while spring quietly gets on with being rather lovely.⁠ ⁠ Blossoms in the gardens. Longer days. Warmer afternoons. Snow still hanging around on the peaks.⁠ ⁠ And because the season changes so quickly, an early September wedding can feel completely different from one at the end of November.⁠ ⁠ Our advice: If you’re trying to choose when to get married in Queenstown, don’t overlook the months in between. 🌸⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @queenstownweddings⁠ @ryandomenicophotography
One of the easiest mistakes to make with reception One of the easiest mistakes to make with reception styling is choosing every detail in isolation.⁠ ⁠ You find a centrepiece you love. Then beautiful candles. Then menus. Then perhaps a little favour for each guest.⁠ ⁠ Individually, perfect.⁠ ⁠ Together? That’s where things can get interesting.⁠ ⁠ When we design reception tables, scale and space matter just as much as colour, flowers or stationery. A low arrangement can leave room for conversation. A narrow candle gives the table height without taking over. A simple place setting might give a more detailed floral arrangement room to breathe.⁠ ⁠ You don’t need every element on the table to be the star.⁠ ⁠ Usually, the best tables work because someone decided which elements shouldn’t be.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @qtweddinghire⁠ @katerobergephotography⁠ @queenstownweddings
Nobody has ever looked at a photo of a mountaintop Nobody has ever looked at a photo of a mountaintop elopement and thought…⁠ ⁠ “Ooh, I wonder what paperwork they had to fill out.”⁠ ⁠ But if you’re travelling from overseas to get married in New Zealand, you’re going to have to think about it eventually.⁠ ⁠ The good news is that it’s nowhere near as complicated as it sounds.⁠ ⁠ Your marriage licence can be applied for online before you arrive. You’ll need a registered celebrant and two witnesses. Your celebrant takes care of the paperwork after the ceremony. And yes, there are a couple of extra things to know if you’re planning to marry somewhere remote.⁠ ⁠ We’ve explained the whole process for How to Legally Get Married in New Zealand as an Overseas Couple in our latest Queenstown Wedding Packages guide.⁠ ⁠ Paperwork first. Mountain next 🤍 🌄⁠ ⁠ Read the full guide at the link.⁠ 👉🏼https://queenstownweddingpackages.com/how-to-legally-marry-in-nz/⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @emily_adamson
