Venues
To go with great catering you need a great venue. We have catered for events at venues of all shapes and sizes in the Wellington region and even further afield. Here are a list of great venues we are partnered with:
Erskine Chapel was a popular wedding venue in the 1990's prior to its restoration. Loved for its soaring vaulted ceiling forms, it is a light, airy space of awe-inspiring and undeniable beauty. The ornately carved altar was sculpted in Rome, and like the apse floor, is of Italian Carrara marble. No longer a parish church, Erskine Chapel is non-denominational. Religious, civil, LGBTQIA+, or renewal of vows ceremonies are all warmly welcomed. Enjoy the convenience of having your ceremony and reception in the same venue. Upon arrival your guests will make their way up the grand staircase to be wowed by the unique gothic chapel. After the ceremony the beautiful light filled space next door is ideal for Champagne and Canapes whilst the couple's wedding photography occurs. Then finally, the downstairs ballroom is perfect for dinner and dancing. Erskine is exclusively yours when you hire.
