No two weddings can be the same and we are able to work with you to tailor your wedding arrangements for your personal requirements and budget.

To help you in your choice we offer examples of what might be included, but the final decisions are yours.

Pre-wedding pampering at Waoku Lodge

For the ultimate in pampering Moana Day Spa offers pre-wedding spa treatments, facials and massage, ensuring a radiant and relaxed bridal party. And Waoku Lodge's luxury apartments provide the perfect venue for pre-wedding grooming.

For the traditionalists, we can arrange alternative accommodation for the groom, Best Man and any other members of the Groom's party for the night before the wedding; for the couple wishing for a less traditional approach, the Groom's group can join the bride and her party at Waoku - it's a personal choice.

During the day prior to the ceremony we will get everyone together for a rehearsal with the celebrant who will conduct your ceremony. This will help you feel comfortable and confident on the day, and help alleviate those wedding day nerves!

The 'day-before' draws to a close with pre-dinner drinks and canapés and the group enjoying a quiet evening in the exquisiteness of Waoku Lodge with dinner being served in the intimacy of the apartments.
