Hidden By Nature
Open to the world

The heritage-listed buildings and landscaped grounds that make up Abbeville Estate are over 150 years old and have been meticulously restored and contemporised for the needs of today.

They offer you a wealth of ways to tailor them to suit your event.

From relaxed cocktails on the lawn to memorable weddings and christenings in the Church. From fully catered celebrations in the Homestead to extraordinary corporate events and fashion shows in the Barn.

And all within easy reach of the growing amenities of Auckland Airport.

Your wedding day…

From relaxed cocktails on the lawn to memorable ceremonies outdoors or inside the Church.

The Homestead seats up to 80 in its main dining room.
The Garden Room seats 20 and with the doors open

An original part of the Homestead, the Barn offers an authentic and rustic air to your wedding. The hewn timber frames speak of over 150 years of history. Below your feet, rustic flooring adds an earthiness to the space.

The traditional landscaped grounds surrounding the historic buildings includes a kitchen garden whose produce is harvested freshly for our menus. Rolling farmland and trees ring the property for privacy, while the canopy of the Estate’s stately Puriri tree provides cooling shade. There is no limit to the number that can be accommodated in the gardens. Seating can also be organised, whether open air or on the lawn under a marquee.

Taking care of your event

With its close proximity to Auckland Airport, Abbeville Estate can offer facilities for small or large meetings, conferences, team building, product launches and client soirees. The homestead and the barn make for interesting destinations to have any number of corporate entertaining and training events.

There’s nothing more special than exchanging your vows in Abbeville’s beautifully restored 1850s church. Our Church Ceremony Package includes two hours of exclusive use of the church and gardens, full ceremony set-up, a signing table, and an on-site coordinator to ensure everything runs seamlessly. Then time afterwards to enjoy the grounds and capture those first newlywed moments.
