Parking at the Venue

Parking is available at the venue for all guests. If you're planning to enjoy a drink or two, please arrange a safe way to get to and from the venue so everyone can celebrate and get home safely.

Ride Share Options

Uber operates in Palmerston North, but availability may be limited later in the evening given the venue’s rural location. We recommend checking ahead rather than leaving it to chance on the night.

Taxi Options

Taxi services are available from Palmerston North, and we recommend booking ahead where possible. Sorting your ride home before the day means one less thing to think about once the celebrations are underway.

Places to Stay

For guests travelling from out of town, Palmerston North has plenty of places to stay, from hotels and motels to Airbnb and Bookabach options. Staying in the city is a smart choice if you plan to enjoy the celebrations, with transport options available to help get you to and from the venue.

Keep the Good Times Going

The celebrations don't have to end on Saturday! We'd love for you to join us on Sunday 29 November from 11:00 am for a relaxed BBQ lunch at ours. Drop in whenever suits, stay as long as you like, and enjoy one last catch up before everyone heads home.

We'll have the BBQ on, and if there are any drinks left over from the wedding, they'll be there too!
