Tips for finding a unique wedding venue in Auckland

When you start planning your wedding, you’re probably hoping to put together a celebration that reflects who you and your partner are as a couple – your quirks, your personalities, the things you love and that make you special.

Not every couple wants a traditional wedding with the usual pattern of church ceremony and ballroom-style reception. If you’re looking for an alternative wedding venue to suit your unique style, there are non-traditional Auckland wedding venues to suit everyone.

Cast convention (and convention centres) aside and get creative! From community halls and libraries to outdoor locations and wildlife parks – the only limit is your imagination. Art galleries, barns and historic buildings can also make for unique wedding venues. If you've always dreamed of a wedding on a boat or on a secluded island beach, why not make it a reality?

Of course, some non-traditional wedding venues can require a lot of time and cost to set up for your special day. One of the newest unusual Auckland wedding venues offering something different, but fully equipped to host your wedding, is Hauraki Blue Cruises.

Hauraki Blue Cruises is a four-level cruise ship based in Auckland, offering wedding cruises around the Auckland Harbour and Hauraki Gulf. Hold your wedding at sea for a truly unique wedding venue and delight your guests!
