Unique Wedding and Function Venue Hawkes Bay

Situated on the coast of Hawkes Bay, Cape Estate is large private garden venue on a 1000acre farm overlooking vineyards and the sea.

This unique venue opens up options from small intimate events with great views to hosting larger special events and weddings with your own self catering. We are happy to discuss your ideas and put you in touch with fantastic local event planners if you need any help to create an unforgettable experience.

Cape Estate is ideal for intimate special occasions such as weddings, private functions, or Christmas events, large and small, as well as corporate functions & team building. Working in with a family-owned adventure activity business called Outfoxed, activities before or after your function could be organised out on the farm.

The expansive gardens offer several locations providing spectacular views and atmosphere's for weddings. Wedding vows can be exchanged under the rose archway or in several area's of your choice on the elevated front lawn looking out across the sea to Napier. Afterwards, your guests can enjoy canapes on our front patio while you enjoy the numerous choices of backdrops around the garden or surrounding paddocks for your photographs.

For the reception, there is the barn as a rustic indoor facility or outside on the large marquee lawn overlooking two grass tennis courts and expansive gardens with the option of lawn games for your guests to help make your special event the one to remember.
