Wedding Venues in West Christchurch

West Christchurch is the page for gardens and park-like grounds at the edge of the city, and it holds 6 wedding venues in Christchurch that sit close to the airport and the racecourse. They are found in Yaldhurst, Harewood, Hornby and around Riccarton Park in Broomfield and Sockburn.

Four of the six have garden settings, and three hold ceremonies on site.

• The Vines Club in Yaldhurst is close to Christchurch Airport and about 15 minutes from the city centre. It sits in well established gardens overlooking a miniature vineyard, down a tree-lined driveway, with a wedding dell for the vows. It is rated 4.7 from 118 reviews, and BYO alcohol is on offer there.
• Peppers Christchurch Clearwater Resort in Northwood is a five star waterfront hotel set within a championship golf course, with rooms and suites for guests and weddings for up to 144 people.
• Omarino Wine Park in Harewood is about 10 minutes from the city centre on five acres of country gardens beyond a vineyard. The main garden and lawn offer two to three ceremony spots among mature trees, shrubs and roses. A modern barn holds up to 200 guests for the reception and has a fully licensed bar, so guests cannot bring their own drinks.

Riccarton Park supplies two of the six.

• Riccarton Park Function Centre in Broomfield offers seven different venues, including The Pavilion and The Tea House, with catering to match, and hosts conferences, school balls and birthdays alongside weddings.
• The Tea House is an Edwardian building from 1903, restored to its original design, with a wide veranda and tongue and groove walls. Outdoor ceremonies can be arranged on the Tea House Lawn, and guests sit at round tables for the reception.
