Come along to our first open day!

Planning your wedding? Need a venue that is relaxing and takes the stress away from you? Look no further…

What we offer

If you are newly engaged and thinking of a garden ceremony and reception come and take a peek at Hewitts Homestead.

Hewitts Homestead was built in 1888 and has many original features. Set in a beautiful, private and relaxed garden with a view of the Ruahine Ranges.

Entry is a Gold coin donation (for charity).
Refreshments are available.

Ceremonies can be held all year round, during the day time or the evening. Imagine saying your vows under a beautiful oak tree that is over 100 years old.

We offer services from a convenient Registry wedding to a full bespoke wedding including ceremony and reception.

We have a room for the bride to prepare for her big day in peace and quiet, reducing stress and anxiety.

We will also have some amazing vendors here to help plan your dream wedding. Florists, caterers, photographer/videographer, dressmaker, event planners and more!

There will be a few special vendors running workshops on the day, check out our Facebook page for updates.

“Excellent surroundings”

The Homestead is real piece of New Zealand history and I loved that we could get married there. The huge oak tree was really special, I can’t wait to go back for our wedding anniversary!

“Love the place”

We changed our minds a few times about what we needed and you were so patient and accomodating! Thank you so much for an amazing day. We will remember it forever.
