The Sign of the Bellbird is a lovely wedding location in a scenic and remote venue not too far from Christchurch City. Perfect for intimate elopement weddings, this remarkable venue, unlike a lot of other wedding venues outdoors, has the added bonus of the old ruin tearoom remains for shelter if required.
Located high up on the Port Hills of Christchurch overlooking Christchurch and the Southern Alps on one side, it is just a quick 5 minute walk to the other side giving you views down on the panorama views of Lyttelton and the harbor, as well as the bays and ocean.

It was just over a year ago that we got married in Christchurch, NZ. Thanks to Donna our wedding was exactly as we had imagined. Donna organized everything and we didn’t have to worry about a thing leading up to and on the day itself, we couldn’t of asked for anything better. Regards, Shari and Dan (Australia)
