FAQs

Question

How do I get to the wedding venue?

Answer

Puketutu Island Estate is about a 20-30 minute drive from central Auckland. Parking is available for a limited number of guests, but we suggest using Uber to get to the venue. Additionally, we will be providing an Uber code for your ride home at the end of the night.

Question

Is there a dress code? What should I wear?

Answer

The dress code is cocktail attire. Keep in mind that June is the start of winter in Auckland, so dress accordingly! While you are welcome to wear any colour except for white, please note that the bridal party will be wearing forest green.

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for. However, if you’d like to give something, we’d be grateful for contributions to our cash fund. Shipping items from the USA to New Zealand can be costly (and may be subject to import taxes), and many products might not be compatible with our plugs or available locally. Therefore, the cash fund is the easiest way to send us a gift. You can contribute by credit card (with the addition of a small processing fee) through the registry listed on this website under the "Registry" section. From the United States, you can Venmo @EmmaCornwell without any additional fees. Our NZ bank account number is 12-3238-0233051-00 for those in NZ who prefer to do bank transfers.

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

The ceremony will begin promptly at 3:00 PM, so we ask that you come at 2:30. If you arrive after then, we kindly ask for your patience. Guests arriving late will be welcomed during the cocktail hour.

Question

What will the weather be like this time of year?

Answer

June marks the start of winter in New Zealand. During this time, temperatures in Auckland average from a high of 15°C to a low of 8°C (59°F to 46°F).

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Please let us know of any dietary restrictions or food allergies in your RSVP so that we can communicate them to the venue.
