Venue, Central Celebrations Wedding Planning Guide, Central Otago

Why is the Golden Gate Lodge and Central Otago so very right for your wedding or function?

Our answer? A stunning location in the heart of the Central Otago wine region… excellent value for money… lodge-style stand alone wedding reception venue with attractively planted, sheltered courtyard... 47 spacious ensuite rooms on site together with a choice of restaurants and bars... but importantly, we know what it takes to make your wedding day the best day of your life.

We begin the moment you contact us by transferring you to our Wedding Planner, Karen Lindsay, who when living in Auckland was one of the first in New Zealand to offer wedding planning. Karen specialises in answering the hearts' desires of brides and grooms. Grand entries by helicopter. Wedding photos in Central Otago's most beautiful private gardens. Themed reception décor. Menus that make the most of Central Otago produce. Pinot Noir wine with your own wedding day label. Anything is possible!

“Wedding receptions are all about people having a wonderful time. A big contributor to this is wedding guests not having to worry about organising to get home. Time and time again we're told by wedding parties how much their guests appreciated only having to walk a few metres to their rooms.” explains Karen, “On those occasions where we are unable to accommodate everyone there are four excellent motels within a hundred metres of the Golden Gate. We also operate a courtesy bus.”
