Whether you want to elope, or bring a planeload of guests with you, New Zealand promises to make your wedding day memorable for all the right reasons. Maybe you see yourselves having a heli-wedding on a mountain top, a traditional service in a tiny lakeside chapel or a bare-foot ceremony on a vast surf beach. With a landscape as varied as ours, almost anything is possible. Blessing ceremonies are also available for honeymooning couples who want a special celebration.

Arranging all the details doesn’t have to be a headache. There are professional wedding organisers who can take care of everything - just show up with your passports and wedding rings. Most wedding venues also have organisers who can help you to make arrangements.

To get married in New Zealand you need to hold a valid marriage licence. Find out how to apply for a marriage licence by visiting the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages website www.bdm.govt.nz
