Say your vows on the shores of beautiful Lake Tekapo in a flawlessly planned elopement wedding package.
Lake Tekapo is an extraordinary wedding location. Winter time will give you snow capped peaks that surround the lake and in summer the golden glow of colour mixed with the bright colours of the lupins. Situated in the heart of the Mackenzin Basin in the South Island, the lake covers an area of 83 square kilometers and is 700m above sea level. We would recommend that you travel down to Lake Tekapo the day before your wedding. The driving distance from Christchurch is approximately 3hrs. This location is weather dependent, if weather does not permit for outdoor wedding we will transfer to shelter for your ceremony.
The basic wedding package includes everything you need for your dream Lake Tekapo Wedding including paperwork for back home (the below basic package can be adjusted to suit your requirements – These prices are for the couple without guests).
