A wedding and event venue on Meeanee Road in Napier, known as The Old Church and described as an iconic Hawke's Bay venue. The in-house caterers, Orton's, have been helping couples through weddings for over 35 years, and they run weddings, corporate events and private functions. The site has several spaces for a day: a courtyard for the ceremony, the grand chandelier main hall for dinner, a conservatory for dancing, and the garden and grounds. The Villa is a separate space listed on the website.
The menu runs to canapés such as sumac-rubbed brie, crispy lamb croquettes, pork belly pinchos and quark filo cigars, and to mains such as crusted market fish and roasted lamb rump. Past couples write that the food and service were faultless and that the team was calm and helpful with their many questions. One guest group said they had never seen such high standards of food presentation at an event. The website says the venue has been planned for couples with a calm and professional approach from the first enquiry.
