Wanaka has been named in the top 10 by Life Books as a dream destination in 100 of the world’s best vacations. It is a peaceful place and drop dead beautiful. There has been a marked increase in the number of weddings in Wanaka in recent years.

Wanaka  is topped by India’s wild flower Hall and the Camargue in France. The book says of Wanaka: “More than 300 metres above sea level, in the centre of New Zealand’s gorgeous South Island, lies this 43 kilometre long lake. The lakeside town is a charming place to stay, with sheep farms dotting the surrounding countryside.”

It is a very peaceful place, not crowded and very beautiful. Homes are built in keeping with the landscape colours and materials. Wanaka inspires people and there is a large art community. The mountains and the lake are very restful and Wanaka has not become as busy a destination as Queenstown. Among some of the choice spots couples choose to be married include: up on the mountain; on skis in the snow; or out on the lake at sunrise. Wanaka certainly creates a romantic atmosphere.

Wanaka’s resident population is 7000. A romantic meal might be a nice piece of venison and a local pinot noir. Perhaps our most famous architecture is Puzzling World, considered as Wanaka’s answer to the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
