Relax and enjoy your special day at The Lodge at the Inlet, one of Wellington's most picturesque and tranquil wedding venues.

Our friendly professional team will help ensure that your wedding day runs smoothly and truly is a day to remember ...

We offer an all-inclusive wedding package that includes venue hire and a buffet meal accompanied by wine, tap beer and non-alcoholic beverages for a six hour period. We are happy to tailor our sample menu to your individual requirements. Please talk to us about set menu options.

You have the choice of two reception venues, The Harbour View Room and The Stables, both of which feature indoor and outdoor areas for your ceremony. Either room is yours to enjoy for the entire day. You can also hire the entire complex for your exclusive use.

Vue Restaurant & Bar is also available for smaller cocktail weddings.

Because of The Lodge's rural setting, the bar will close and the entertainment will cease at midnight.
 

The Lodge is also able to provide accommodation in its six rooms for the bride and groom and guests from out of town.

And if you need assistance arranging entertainment, photography, flowers or limousines, we have excellent contacts and are only too happy to help. Aspasia Beauty Solutions is also on site.

 

Please note that we do not allow petals, rice or paper confetti either inside or outside the venue.

The Lodge at the Inlet has a No Smoking policy throughout the entire complex including the accommodation areas, The Harbour View Room and The Stables. There are three courtyards that are suitable and adequately sheltered for your smoking guests.
