Prepare to be inspired and taken on a breathtaking journey

Autumn is here but it still feels like summer! Wellington is the place to be packed with world class events, award-winning cuisine and great hotel deals, Wellington has something for everyone. It's a tough job being tucked between New Zealand's finest wine regions, but some city's gotta do it. So add a few days to your visit and take a trip to spend some quality time with our neighbours - Marlborough, Hawke's Bay, and Wairarapa. 

Want to get married in the capital of cool? I do! 

Marriage EqualityWedding fever is hitting Wellington, thanks to the news that New Zealand has legalised same-sex marriage.

In celebration, we’re offering an exclusive wedding package to be one of the first Aussie couples to get hitched on our shores.

Things have gotten bigger and better since we recently announced our competition. We’re busy now getting our wedding planning groove on, so hope you don’t mind being patient for a wee while longer.

Watch this space – more details to come soon. You can also check us out on Facebook to make sure you’re the first to know what we’ve got in store.
