To put it simply… we love weddings!
Let’s chat about yours.

Say Hello
Planning a wedding from overseas? Here’s how we ma Planning a wedding from overseas? Here’s how we make it possible.⁠ ⁠ You don’t need to fly back and forth.⁠ You don’t need to know every local supplier.⁠ And you don’t need to have it all figured out before you start.⁠ ⁠ What you do need is a clear plan, trusted people on the ground, and honest guidance along the way.⁠ ⁠ Here’s how we support couples planning their Queenstown wedding from overseas:⁠ ⁠ • We handle the logistics you can’t easily manage from afar⁠ • We recommend suppliers we know and trust, based on your style and priorities⁠ • We keep communication clear, consistent, and realistic across time zones⁠ • We plan with flexibility, especially around weather, travel, and timelines⁠ • We’re on the ground on the day… so you don’t have to worry about what’s happening behind the scenes⁠ ⁠ Many of our couples plan their entire wedding without setting foot in Queenstown until just before the big day. And it works… because the structure is there, the expectations are clear, and you’re never guessing what comes next.⁠ ⁠ Planning remotely doesn’t mean being disconnected. It just means having the right support in the right place.⁠ ⁠ If you’re dreaming of a Queenstown wedding but living elsewhere… we’ve got you.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @ryandomenicophotography
"Surprise… we’re married!" 😮 Secret elopements ha "Surprise… we’re married!" 😮 Secret elopements happen more often than you’d think… and for some couples, they’re exactly the right choice.⁠ ⁠ • No guest list politics⁠ • No pressure to please everyone⁠ • No explaining your decisions as you go⁠ ⁠ Just the two of you, a clear plan, and a wedding day that feels calm, intentional, and yours.⁠ ⁠ Some couples tell family afterwards.⁠ Some plan a celebration later.⁠ Some keep it just between the two of them for a while.⁠ ⁠ And all of those choices are valid.⁠ ⁠ A secret elopement isn’t about excluding people… it’s about protecting your experience. And when it’s done well, it still feels thoughtful, meaningful, and beautifully planned.⁠ ⁠ If you’ve ever joked about running away to get married… you’re not alone. And we'd love to help you. 💌⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @ricky.b.good.photography
Queenstown gets talked about for its views… but wh Queenstown gets talked about for its views… but what actually makes it work for destination weddings is everything happening behind the scenes.⁠ ⁠ • Easy to plan from afar⁠ Queenstown has a tight-knit, experienced wedding industry. Vendors know how to collaborate, timelines run smoothly, and planning remotely is genuinely manageable.⁠ ⁠ • All the options, in one place⁠ Heli elopements, lakeside ceremonies, vineyards, chapels, private estates… couples don’t need to compromise or travel between regions to find the right fit.⁠ ⁠ • Reliable infrastructure⁠ Accommodation, transport, weather contingencies, sound plans, permits… this town is built for hosting people. That matters more than most realise.⁠ ⁠ • Guest experience sorted⁠ For couples bringing loved ones, Queenstown offers activities, dining, and accommodation for every style and budget. It feels like a holiday, not a logistical headache.⁠ ⁠ • A destination that feels special, not stressful⁠ Time slows down here. The pace, the setting, and the support allow couples to actually enjoy their wedding… not just get through it.⁠ ⁠ That’s why Queenstown works so well for destination weddings.⁠ Not just because it’s beautiful… but because it’s prepared.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @kellifrancisphotography
You don’t owe anyone a plus-one explanation.⁠ ⁠ Gu You don’t owe anyone a plus-one explanation.⁠ ⁠ Guest lists are one of the trickiest parts of planning, especially when emotions and expectations get involved. Deciding who gets a plus-one isn’t about being difficult or excluding people. It’s about capacity, budget, and creating a day that feels right for you.⁠ ⁠ It’s okay to:⁠ • Keep numbers small⁠ • Prioritise close relationships⁠ • Set boundaries without over-explaining⁠ • Make decisions that suit your venue, your plans, and your comfort⁠ ⁠ A clear, kind decision is better than one made out of pressure. Most guests understand more than we give them credit for.⁠ ⁠ Your wedding isn’t a negotiation. It’s a celebration you’re hosting in a way that works for you.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @kelliefrancisphotography
A question we love asking couples after the weddin A question we love asking couples after the wedding… What’s one thing you worried about… that really didn’t matter in the end? The flowers being perfect. The exact timing. Whether everyone noticed every little detail. Most couples tell us the same thing. Once the day arrived, those worries faded fast. What stuck was how it felt, who was there, and the moments they didn’t plan for. If you’re in the thick of planning, take this as permission to loosen your grip just a little. Not everything needs your energy. We’d love to hear it… what’s one thing you’re glad you didn’t stress about?
We’re seeing more couples step away from tradition We’re seeing more couples step away from traditional tiered cakes and choose something that suits how they want the day to feel.⁠ ⁠ Millefoglie is elegant, unfussy, and made for sharing.⁠ It’s a subtle shift, but it says a lot about where weddings are heading next.⁠ ⁠ Saved for anyone planning a 2026 celebration 🤍⁠ ⁠ @simplyperfectnz⁠ @jinalgovindphotography
