  Jon and I were so grateful for the help that we recieved from Kumeu Valley.  We were orgainising our wedding from the UK and they were amazing at communicating with both of us and also my parents in NZ.  Nothing was ever to much of a hassle for them from organising our own combination of their wonderful menu and answering our continual questions.  On the day of the event they were even more amazing.  I had come down with a stomach bug and they were able to provide me with a bed to snooze on during the evening and they were also very flexible with the running of the evening due to my illness! 

  We had an amazing time and all of our guests enjoyed it as well.  We cannot thank them enough for all they did for us.

  Kumeu Valley was recommended to us by a friend along with two other venues. Once we met with Annette at this venue we didn’t look any further!
  The professionalism, stunning grounds, and flexibility with options on menu’s and alcohol really suited us. The wedding day was the most stunning event and every thing ran so smoothly. I would highly recommend this venue.

  FANTASTIC!!! 

  We had the most amazing day.  The stress was totally taken off us so that we could enjoy spending time with family and friends.

  KVE was only the second venue we looked at, but once we had walked in we knew it was the venue for us.  And that was before all the fairy lights and flowers!!

  Annette and Katy were amazing leading up to and the staff were outstanding on the day.  They were all very professional, courteous, helpful (with the oldies), and generally a very well trained lot!
  The food was sensational, the wine chilled, the beer cold and the music groovy.  KVE’s food and booze packages cater for everyone.

  Our day was totally relaxed, nothing ran behind time and all of our guests enjoyed themselves immensely -alot even mentioning it was one of the best weddings they had been to.
  We would safely recommend KVE to anyone who wants an amazing day that you both will never forget.

  Annette and Katy and their team at Kumeu Valley Estate ensure that our wedding day was just perfect!  The venue, staff, food, service, and every little detail absolutely exceeded our expectations and we knew from the first time we met Annette that we were in safe hands.  Katy and Annette were fantastic at answering all the emails I sent, and they were so friendly…they made my husband and I feel like our wedding day was the most important day of their lives - what more could you ask.

  Without a doubt I would recommend KVE to absolutely anyone.  It is such a beautiful, stylish, relaxed, yet specatular venue with amazing food, but it’s the staff that make KVE so unique - they are just the icing on the cake, and I simply can not speak highly enough of the experience they gave us and our wedding guests.

  If I could rate KVE with 1000 stars - I would!

  This was the 2nd venue we looked at and we did not need to look at any others, this venue was stunning and on meeting Annette and Katy we were soon put at ease. They were both very knowledgable and professional and i knew i would be safe with them.
  The whole planning process was made so easy with the help of Katy as our wedding coordinator, she was amazing and during this time i really considered her more like a friend! KVE really went out of their way to answer all my questions, allow me to bring my family for ‘look throughs’ and were really on the ball with details and time schedules.
  Our day was fantastic, not a problem at all. Just having Katy there made me at ease and from my arrival with a glass of water, to a hug from her at the end of the night i was blown away by everything. Our guests still comment on the food and particularly the service. If we could do it all over again we wouldnt change a single thing!
  Thank you so much. Our wedding was special because of you and we will always treasure our special day.

  KVE was the second venue we looked at and i knew as soon as i walked in the doors that this was the place for me.  We booked that day.

  My experience leading up to the day was painless, i felt that this was one area i didn’t need to stress about.

  Annette is amazing i felt like i could totally trust her to look after everything.  We also used a couple of her preferred suppliers that were just as amazing, gorgeous flowers & great DJ.  Compared to other venues KVE is fantastic value and there were no hidden surprises.

  Our wedding day was incredible, everything exceeded my expectations, the place looked stunning & there was not one hitch that i know of.  I had tonnes of comments about the huge food selection and how good it was.  A huge number of guests told me that it was the best wedding they had ever been to!

  Me and my husband would definitely recommend KVE for any occasion.

  There is not one thing I could fault about Kumeu Valley Estate. Annette and Katy and the team did an absolutely amazing job and the whole event ran so smoothly. They were professional, as well as being flexible and approachable - which made my husband and I feel relaxed and confident that the ceremony and reception would be well taken care of, so we could enjoy the day without stressing.

  The food was delicious and very plentiful (we went for the buffet option) and the drinks flowed nicely. What I really liked was the drinks package option, where you pay per person for a certain number of hours, instead of on consumption. This way you are all paid up before hand and don’t need to keep worrying about the bar tab during the night.

  The venue looked stunning and so pretty with all the fairy lights and tea light candles. Having only really been out there during the day time prior to the wedding, I knew that it was a beautiful venue, however at night it surpassed my expectations. I had one friend tell me it was the prettiest wedding she had ever been to.

  We have had so many compliments from guests about the food, drinks and the venue. Everyone had so much fun, which was exactly what we wanted.

  It is a little more expensive than some other venues, however the service in planning leading up to the day, and on the day, as well as the quality of food, drinks etc is completely worth it.

  It was just perfect and we both couldn’t be happier that we chose Kumeu Valley Estate.

  Kumeu Valley Estate was the first & last venue we looked at for our special day. We were completely taken with the rustic country charm of the bell tower & surrounding buildings which have superb indoor outdoor flow.

  Annette was great to deal with. We wanted a cocktail style wedding which she hadn’t done previously but this was no problem. She gave great advise on things such as how much food to have available to guests to wearing heel protectors to stop me from sinking into the grass when walking down the isle.

  She a great selection of florists, photographers, djs, & bands that she regularly deals with. Some of which we used &  we are very pleased we did.

  On the day we wanted it to be relaxed, fun & romantic. All of which were achieved. The fairy lights & tea lights certainly helped set the mood.
  The guests were blown away with the venue & the excellent service they received. They are still talking about it!

  We would definitely recommend Kumeu Valley Estate to others.

  Easy and straight forward to work with.
  The best bonus is you get your own planner who runs through everything with/for you and will sort out anything you ask. They also make sure the day runs as you wish which made our day the best ever.
  Couldn’t be any happier with how everything went.

  Never have I been to a wedding where there has been so much feedback from the guests about the venue (so i’m very grateful this one was mine).  Over half of our guests were from outside of New Zealand & I think Annette, Katy & the team really showcased Kiwiana attitude & beauty.  The main reason I chose this venue was because Annette & Katy were soooo obliging with all of my odd requests - there was absolutely nothing that they couldn’t be flexible with (this was not the case with every other venue I visited).  They really understand their business, from catering to all different kinds of guests - even children, making the bridal party so comfortable & exceptional catering.  I cannot recommend them enough!

  From our own personal point of view and feedback from many of our friends and family we can say that our wedding was professionaly planed and handled to a very high standard. At a series of meetings we were impressed by the thorough and detailed planning programme undertaken by Annette and her team. No detail however small was overlooked. Choices offered to us were wide and varied and as a result we were able to offer our guests a superb menu and a quality range of drinks. All who attended commented on the quality, range and wonderful presentation. The set up both outside and inside reflected the pride that it taken at the venue in providing excellence. The colours blended together to give the entire setup the wow factor. Service during the entire night was of the highest standard and managed in a friendly professional way. A stressful day proved not to be so thanks to the team at Kumeu Valley Estate. Our sincere thanks for a truely memorable day.

  It was only last night that I was looking at pictures of what was the most amazing day in my life and it was all thanks to the wonderful team at KVE.  I searched high and low for that perfect venue and KVE were everything we could have asked for and more.  Not only was this venue value for money but just so helpful…  flexiabe is KVE middle name!!!  Not many venues are willing to make changes like this team and that is what really made our day our own!  Their was never a bad time to contact these ladies and their knowledge and understanding is something I truely appreciate.  If I needed advise, quotes, extra this extra that… deducte this etc etc they would alway do this with a smile.  I felt like family to these ppl and they really wanted to know US.  We were not just a number and they truly cared that we got what we asked for.  We were able to attend the venue as we pleased (although I always gave warning) the grounds are the uttmost pleassure and the surrounding are devine.  I have a few friends marrying in the coming years and trust me I have put my hand up to rave about how amazing KVE are.  The detailed timeline, the food that is not only served piping hot but just such a array of choices from currys to seafood, hot cuts and salads.  Staff that work with a smile and are hands on without a flinge and it was all what we asked for not what they told us we had to have.  I have to give a special mention to Annette Simpkins.  This woman is just fantastic, polite, and more then helpful.  Overall this lady has a estimate of 100+ emails from me.  and each and every one of those emails was catered too!  On the day of my wedding it was Annette waiting for my girls and I with chilled water (timing was perfect)
  Once again I can not thank this team enough!  my husband and I had the day of our lives and KVE made it a piece of cake for us.  We are not rich ppl and have def had some hard times even postponing the wedding twice!  So once again we are in depth to this team.  We will never forget how wonderful our day was and how carefree it went.  We did not have to think ONCE!  and that to me is what I call a fairytale.

  Regards,
  Alisha

  Kumeu Valley really was meant to be for us as a wedding venue.  The rustic look and beautiful surroundings really makes it a special place.  We had looked at a fair number of venues but as soon as we drove in the driveway we knew it was what we wanted.

  The day went absolutely perfectly.  Everything was set up exactly as promised and of course everything went without a hitch (as far as we know)   The food was fantastic.  We had serveral comments after the reception how gorgeous the venue looked and how delicious the food was.

  Annette & Katy were fantastic.  Nothing was too much bother and the planning was relaxed and very easy.  Katy was always helpful.  As we arrived on the day we were greeted with water and a smiling face.  Katy even bought out a bowl of water and sponge when i noticed my dress had some marks on it from having photos taken. Nothing was too much trouble.  We were followed around with food and drink prior to dinner.  We were certianly well looked after.

  i would definately recomend KVE as a venue for any occasion.

  Even the most seasoned wedding attendee was wowed by the impressive set up at Kumeu Valley Estate.  The absolute perfect venue for a couple looking for an entire package - ceremony, reception, dancing, photography - it is all available within the one location.  Annette and Katy were outstanding - anticipated every move and looked after our wedding party with close attention.  Many of our attendees commented that the food was the absolute best they had received at any weddings - high praise!  I would recommend KVE to any couple contemplating their wedding venue - we loved it and were hugely impressed with both the lead up and on the day.

  Our wedding could not have been more perfect.  When we first walked into Kumeu Valley to have a look around we knew that this was the place for us.  We felt so comfortable and fell in love with the surroundings.

  Annette and all the staff were amazing, no job was to big.  The food was superb, so much variety and alot of it!

  We had an amazing day, with no problems whats so ever.  If you are looking at getting married,  Kumeu Valley is perfect and both myself and my husband would highly recommend it!!

  Our wedding plans didn’t start off as well as we had hoped, being double booked at our first venue choice. But now looking back we couldn’t be happier about how things turned out.

  We ended up re-booking at Kumeu Valley Estate and they were absolutely wonderful in every way! Annette our wedding planner was so calm and professional, we knew as soon as we met her this was the place for us. The lead up to our wedding was a breeze and the day went off without a hitch.

  The venue, service and food were outstanding! A year later our guests still comment on our awesome wedding making special mention of the food (the buffet is beautiful).

  I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone, you wont regret it!
