Weddings & Events
The River House Wanaka provides the perfect riverside location to host the ultimate wedding or event. We can accommodate anything from a small number of guests to a large marquee wedding reception, an intimate cocktail party in the courtyard or a corporate lunch on the spacious lawns.
The property offers multiple ceremony options, including the scenic grounds which is perfect for a large outdoor event, while the indoor space caters for those wanting a more intimate setting. The huge lawn offers plenty of space for marquee’s, yurts, and bell tents. Utilise the outdoor entertaining area and patio with BBQ facilities, sprinkle the willow trees with fairy lights, bring in a band and dance the night away. Please note curfew for noise will apply accordingly – please enquire further detail.
