The Old Mill Napier

Tucked away in the historic brick buildings of the Napier Woollen Company’s Mill is a unique venue waiting to be discovered!

Hidden within the 1923 façade is a delightful brick courtyard garden full of flowers and lush greenery- it is ideal for smaller weddings from 10 to 90 guests in the garden with seating for 90 in the restaurant downstairs. The surrounding buildings were built in 1902 and all are in the NZ Historic Places Trust. We welcome you to celebrate here & let us help you create your day to be remembered!

Hold your ceremony in the courtyard garden, Or you may choose to arrive after you are married, and relax with your guests while you enjoy a glass of bubbles, wine or beer in the garden. Later, move downstairs to the warm, candle-lit atmosphere of our character-filled dining room (which you have decorated as you like it, the day before). A gourmet buffet meal is served before the evening winds up with dancing ‘till late.

Testimonial

"I would highly recommend the Old Mill as a Wedding Venue. We had our wedding here and could not speak highly enough of Charlie and Darryl. They both were running the whole night to ensure we were all taken care of and that we all had the best experience, even during the peak of COVID and a storm that didn’t look like it was going to pass for our day. They were constantly thinking ahead so that we did not have to. The food was incredible and the venue just looked AMAZING. It made our day much less stressful and we were able to sit back and enjoy every moment. Thank you both again for the hard work and all you did xxx" - Tina King
