Wow!!! Can you imagine being married in this spot? I fell in love with this location a couple of years ago.
Situated between Lake Tekapo and Lake Alexandrina with an elevated view of the turquoise lake and mountain backdrop.
Russell Lupins are colourful wildflowers, which blossom along the shores of Lake Tekapo in Canterbury on the South Island of NZ during the summer months. The landscape comes alive in pink and purple hues while the unique colour of the lake sparkles in the lighting as a blanket of clouds lingers over the mountaintops.
Truly a remarkable landscape to say those special vows to each other.
I would recommend that you travel down to Lake Tekapo the day before your wedding. The driving distance from Christchurch is approximately 3hrs.
Please note that this location is weather dependent. If weather is not suitable for your outdoor wedding then wedding will be transferred into a location that will still give you views of the Lake.
The basic package for this wedding includes everything you need for your wedding, including documentation for back home.
These prices are for bride and groom without guests.
Due to Lupins being seasonal flowers, this wedding packages is only available December and January.
