Some excellent summer dates are still available at both our venues. If you want your dream wedding on the date you'd like, now's the time. These dates won't last long, so enquire now.
There’s no need to wait for your dream wedding. We have premium venues ready to host your stressless pop-up/micro wedding for up to three and a half hours, at a very affordable price.
Whether you have 10 guests or 100, you can create your unique wedding package with mix-and-match features. Every wedding includes venue hire, chairs, set-up and pack-down, cleaning, a day-of wedding coordinator, food and drinks. Then you can add extras such as cake, use of the bride’s room, a photo booth and giant love letters.
Pop-ups are also a great way to have a ceremony-only wedding, with guests having time to celebrate and have group photos taken immediately after the vows.
What’s Included
All pop-up weddings consist of a ceremony followed by canapes and drinks from our house range of beers, wines and soft drinks. The standard option is 2.5 hours, and you can extend this to 3.5 hours.
Like any other wedding, you decide on styling, a celebrant and a photographer, and can add a planning meeting and rehearsal. Our team will guide you through the options from our lists of recommended professionals – or you can choose third party vendors.
There are no compulsory plans or packages. You pick and choose who and what you want and what you don’t. Pop-up weddings can cost as little as $1,900 up to several thousand dollars depending on guest numbers and options chosen and guest numbers. Minimum spends apply, with the minimum guest number set at just 10 people including the couple marrying.
Your Choice of Stylish Venue
Tui Hills and Abel Estate are premium venues in West Auckland providing a gorgeous backdrop, and just as importantly the sort of service, hire items, food and drinks that make your wedding stylish, fun and stress-free. These venues offer identical options and pricing – it’s just the look you have to decide on.
Tui Hills (max 120 people) is nestled in the bush of the Waitakere Ranges on Scenic Drive - a secluded slice of heaven with New Zealand style and kiwi hospitality.
Abel Estate (max 100 people) is an historic former vineyard estate just outside Kumeu in West Auckland’s wine region. There are expansive grounds, grapevines and a private lake.
Here’s what our couples say..
Ella Reshef-Trainin 2024
I just want to give a massive shoutout to Virginia for walking us through the process and helping us realise we could have our dream wedding within our budget. To Nikki for sorting out the details, being fast to respond to questions and never making us feel bad for asking something! And of course Chelsea and Stephanie who put it altogether on the day.
We had so many compliments from friends and family about how good Chelsea was - being a saviour with an umbrella for our parents and us when it was raining, decorating the place so perfectly and working with our MC to ensure the day ran smoothly. Truely a massive thanks! It was a real pleasure going through this wedding season with you all!
Daniel Levine 2024
The venue was fantastic, clean, quiet, classic and romantic. We fell in love with the venue when we saw it. The service is excellent.
Overall we had an amazing and intimate wedding experience although it was raining they still managed to make it special. The photo booth was so much fun.
Jacky Visagie 2023
Everything was amazing, the experience was top level, from the decor to the food the staff even before the day dealing with the planning felt effortless. Could not have been better - exceeded our expectations! The website attracted me straight away very easy to follow steps and very prompt on replying to my first send email. The food and drink was next level, everyone enjoyed it and had only good things to say!
Deeva Cardona 2023
We opted in to rent the silk corner flowers from the venue for the rotunda and indoors which definitely added to the beauty of our photos. The styling options were vast and I loved that for us.
The food was delicious and ample for everyone at our pop-up wedding. The drinks came fast and the venue had a wide range of them available for the guests which made them really happy.
Olivia Howe 2023
The stunning green space for our ceremony at Tui Hills was what we envisioned, it is well kept and the added drying and flowers to the space really make it pop and stand out.
The service was efficient and the planning of the pop up wedding was so simple and straightforward exactly what I wanted from the get go so I didn’t have to many logistics to worry about.
David Munt 2023
The venue was great value for the day we had. We were based in the UK and the planning was done all via video calls and email but worked really well and they day went perfectly.
The venue was a lovely location and made our wedding feel really special and looked great in the photos.
Dianne Eade 2023
Abel Estate was beautiful. Lots of room for guests. We still had photos outside as it was showery. Nicola was the celebrant she was friendly and helpful to us. She delivered a fast ceremony which was great for my nerves on the day. I chose Abel Estate because they offered a pop up wedding also supplied a list of people to choose as celebrants and cake makers etc. Katrina was an amazing photographer and put us at ease. Planning was helpful as I received lots of planning material by email for important times and dates for the wedding.
Mikayla Palffy 2023
Tui Hills was a stunning venue, even in the back up space. The pavilion was gorgeous, remaining bright and cheerful and full of lovely green nature colours thanks to the native plants and ferns. The staff went out of their way to give us opportunities to sample food in between the business of the wedding. The food itself was great! Especially the prawns.
