Remote Wilderness Wedding

Flying into the spectacular Waimakariri Gorge you will enjoy a low level flight through this world-renowned river canyon, the gateway to the South Island Main Divide, the high mountain chain that divides the Island in two. You will then climb out of the gorge to land on the plains where two rivers meet and mountains with 360-degree views, which can only be described as breath-taking. Some couples say it is like a scene in the Lord of the Rings.   This is a location that is truly remote wilderness of New Zealand
