Weddings and Events

Woodlands Farmstead offers an unforgettable rural events setting in one of the most peaceful locations you can imagine. Your arrival begins through a tree-lined tunnel that opens to vast outdoor spaces, creating a remarkable backdrop for marquee weddings and open-air celebrations. Your event will be enveloped by nature, with the estate’s lush gardens, heritage architecture, and rolling pastures providing a serene and timeless setting.

Perfect for couples seeking a rural and rustic atmosphere, the property offers endless opportunities for photography that feels authentic to the era in which the homestead was built. For black sand beach images, Urenui Beach is just a 15-minute drive away, making it easy to capture dramatic coastal moments alongside your rural celebration.

For more intimate lunches or dinners, we may be able to cater for guests in our casual Annex or formal lounge space – depending on your requirements. 

We welcome weddings and events on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us by email with your requirements and we will prepare a tailored quote, with on-site accommodation included if needed. 

Please note that Woodlands Farmstead is a dry hire Taranaki events venue. All elements must be brought in, and you may choose an outdoor celebration or arrange for a marquee.
