Maori & Pacific Wedding Venue
Allely Estate is a wedding venue which can accommodate any type of wedding. From weddings of 70, through to hundreds of guests. We understand the need for a strong focus on the culture of the couple, and guests.
Situated outside in our garden, or inside our exquisite villa, the sound of the cultural performances entertaining your guests, certainly makes for a memorable wedding experience.
Indian Wedding Venue
Indian weddings are a colorful, vibrant and lavish affair and they are often considered to be the most important event in an Indian family. They’re also an amalgamation of different cultures and religions when hosted here in New Zealand. The ceremony is typically followed by a grand banquet with much dancing and singing.
Indian weddings have evolved over time to include the best of all worlds – Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Sikhism and Jainism – into one celebration that’s truly special for the couple getting married.
Here at Allely Estate, we are no strangers to hosting Indian Weddings. Rest assured, we dedicate the day to you, because we understand this is a huge event for you and your guests.
Asian Wedding Venue
The traditional Asian wedding is a celebration of two families coming together as one. This includes both the bride and groom’s family, as well as the families of their respective spouses. The ceremony is traditionally held in a temple or church, but can also be held in any location that is meaningful to the couple such as Allely Estate.
Asian weddings are hugely diverse in terms of religion, culture, and customs. This means that there are many different types of Asian wedding traditions that may be unfamiliar to the Western world.
Allely Estate will ensure your cultural needs are met – taking into consideration customs, cuisine & other requests to ensure your wedding day is as special as can be.
Auckland most culturally inclusive Wedding Venue
We had our wedding at Allely Estate in March 2024 and it was everything we dreamed of. The estate is beautiful, filled with greenery and plenty of space to accommodate numbers.
We went with an outdoor ceremony in front of the hedge (same area can be used for the reception underneath their fairy lights) with the reception inside the marquee. The team were professional, friendly and very supportive when it came to incorporating cultural aspects such as the food and performances (lion dance performance).
There are quite a few places in driving distance which can be used for bridal party photos (we went to a forest area in Riverhead). We knew we were in good hands and had the utmost trust in the team at Allely. Catherine, Peter, Mariana and the team were nothing but amazing to us. Would highly recommend Allely for your next celebration 🙂
