Even just driving up into Puketutu Island Estate is a magical experience that transforms you: to enter, you must cross a narrow strip of land that leads you into the island, up a path framed by magnificent arching trees. The sudden serenity and silence you feel as you cross that slim veneer between reality and dreams is an experience unique to this wedding venue, tucked in bustling Auckland.
Once a couple said to us: “We want to have a fairytale wedding experience,” and well, what could be more fairytale-like than magnificent Puketutu Island Estate, with its lush dense tropical gardens; that stunning historic Spanish-style villa as the centerpiece of it all! Talk about an Auckland luxury wedding venue dream.
Whether it’s an intimate wedding celebration or a full-on party, Puketutu Island Estate can accomodate up to 200 guests with both their indoor and outdoor spaces, featuring manicured garden terraces, waterfalls, a pond, and of course ocean views amongst the trees.
With the historic Spanish villa interior, Puketutu Island Estate’s homestead offers a beautiful location for intimate wedding evenings, or a gorgeous space to get ready for your wedding—and for us Auckland wedding photographers to capture your wedding day in the midst of those wooden details and architectural beauties!
Puketutu Island has three main spaces for large outdoor gatherings: The Lawn, The Pavillion, and The Terrace. Below you can take a peek at a setup of the Lawn, the main sprawling green space for everything from a sunny afternoon wedding ceremony to a lustrous evening reception, framed by the Spanish villa in the background.
The Terrace is an intimate tiled space on the wraparound deck of the Spanish villa, while the Pavillion is a newly renovated indoor gathering space underneath a sweep of luxurious white. With an abundance of options, and even more intimate indoor villa rooms for you to explore, Puketutu Island Estate has everything you need for a luxurious Auckland wedding experience.
Next time, it could be you, dancing under the golden glow of lights as the soft summer evening sets around you, basking in the warmth of the love and joy at your wedding day in the gorgeous environment of Puketutu Island Estate.
