Weddings & Events

Lake Hawea View seamlessly combines venue and accommodation, providing the perfect setting for your event while offering a comfortable stay for you and your guests. With the main house and adjacent guest house accommodating up to 14 people, you can enjoy quality time with your loved ones as you prepare for your special occasion and take some time out after the big event too. Additionally, we have the option of a charming three-bedroom self-contained Earth Cottage with breath-taking lake and mountain views, just a short 5-minute walk from Lake Hawea View. As this is managed by a third party, it is however subject to availability. This means that across three separate dwellings, there is the potential to accommodate up to 20 guests in total. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, our property is designed to cater to your needs. Lake Hawea View can host events of up to 80 guests (excluding vendors) for a traditional seated dinner. Please note that a minimum 3-night stay is required for all events. Contact us to schedule a site visit.

Exchange vows at our dedicated ceremony site set upon a groomed sprawling lawn, with the breathtaking teal backdrop of Lake Hawea and the Southern Alps. Our venue offers the perfect location for your wedding ceremony or any outdoor element of your event. With ample space and flexibility, you have the freedom to design and set up your event as you’ve always imagined. Our dedicated Event Coordinator offers on-going support for all venue-related detail. As part of our commitment to making your event truly memorable, we provide a selection of complimentary event supplies included in our event packages.

Please note that Lake Hawea View is not available for ceremonies only.

We offer three distinct event packages at Lake Hawea View, designed to cater to events of different sizes: Intimate, Small, and Grand. Our Intimate and Small wedding packages are perfect for traditional seated dinners without the need for additional infrastructure, such as a Tipi or marquee. For larger events, our Grand package includes the necessary provisions including a Tipi we organise and hire in for you, by Gather & Gold. If you’re unsure about the size of your event, don’t worry. You have the flexibility to upgrade your package as needed down the line.
