Story

‘Casabella’ – The Perfect Affordable Ceremony Venue
‘Casabella’ means ‘Beautiful Home’ It is the home of Peta Hardley – Celebrant, and her lovely husband, Ian.

'Casabella' is set on an idyllic 10 acre country property.
The home has a Spanish mediterranean feel and is a mix of established gardens, orchards, woodlands and open fields. It even has a covered courtyard as a wet weather alternative.
‘Casabella’ is a perfect affordable ceremony venue for elopements or an intimate – medium sized ceremony up to 35 people. Casabella is 5 minutes from Kumeu with all its fabulous wineries and restaurants, and a stone’s throw from beautiful Muriwai beach.
At Casabella there are two specific grassed wedding areas, each with a gazebo and surrounded by mature trees. A signing table, sun umbrellas and some seating for guests are all included. Alternatively you may like to get married by the pool, in the courtyard, in the apple orchard or on the expansive hilltop overlooking a rural scene. (All fabulous for photos) We even have a small lake!

In Auckland the weather is often changeable, so Casabella has a lovely covered Mediterranean style courtyard as a wet weather alternative. You could even have an evening ceremony here if you wish.
The presence of farm animals, 2 cats, a dog, assorted chickens, doves and/or sheep are likely in your photos. (Their presence is free of charge)
A congratulatory glass of bubbles and nibbles can be arranged for your guests for a small extra fee.
I can recommend some lovely restaurants in the Kumeu area for the reception, or why not follow your ceremony with a picnic at one of West Auckland’s fine beaches or parks).
Some of the advantages of using Casabella over a park or beach include:
√ Guaranteed privacy
√ A wet weather option at the same venue (the covered Mediterranean courtyard)
√ Clean bathroom/preparation facilities
√ Parking facilities for up to 20 cars
√ Availability of electricity if required
√ A signing table and chair.
√ Preparation or ‘dressing’ of the area with flares/candles, tablecloths.
√ Seating for 6 -10 guests and sun umbrellas.

Enjoy the beauty and tranquility of a delicious rural environment. The venue cost starts from just $400
