Staying in the Capital – a bit of a treat


Come and stay at the Museum Hotel if you want to treat yourself when you’re in town for the wedding. We’ve negotiated a special rate with the Museum Hotel for our guests. The Museum Hotel is one of the best hotels in town (they are a Film Festival sponsor and we host international filmmakers there).

Rebecca and the ladies will be staying there on the night before the wedding. (So you’ll be close to the action!)

Five Months To Go!



Things have slowed down in the wedding planning department. Bevan and I have reached that time of the year when work gets pretty busy. (Check out the Film Festival programme announced here - Wellington starts in two weeks).

We're finalising a caterer at the moment: this is the fun and challenging part! Deciding on the food so far out, and ensuring a company that gets the vibe we're going for. Whoever we go with, it will be delicious…

Next we'll be posting about accommodation recommendations in the city for anyone keen to get booking well in advance. 

In the meantime, how amazing does this cake look?! (Care of Sweetapolita.com)
So many fabulous potential wedding cakes out there. How to choose?
