UNIQUE VENUES FOR ANY OCCASION

"Zealong is the perfect place for a wedding or function! 5 stars is not enough to give the team at Zealong. We had a small family wedding here recently and from the very first interaction, their service was impeccable. Malin and her events team are fantastic, they went above and beyond for us. Our wedding day was perfect, we wouldn’t have changed a thing. The catering options were incredible! We were treated like royalty throughout every step of the planning process. Highly recommend Zealong and we’ll back to explore all the other offerings of this fantastic location and the team. Thank you again Malin and the team, you all are so amazing."

"you and your staff were so great. From the pavilion to the vista, they were always so positive and happy, easy going and it really kept my spirits up! No one was grumpy or annoyed, even as the night went on, and I feel like that made such a huge difference. We have been to weddings before where the staff were grumpy and it did impact the vibe, so thank you soo much for that. I honestly can’t think of any constructive feedback, maybe still in the honey moon phase 😂 but if we think of anything we will definitely let you know! It ran so seamlessly and nothing needed to be mentioned on the night which is a real testament to you guys."

"We truly had an incredible time at the venue! The atmosphere was vibrant, the staff was remarkably friendly and attentive, and the food was outstanding. I want to express my appreciation for making our communication journey so seamless, from our first email exchange to the venue tour on the day of the event. P.S : The tea tasted incredibly flavorful. I shared it with some of my friends and family members. I'll definitely have to buy more next time I visit, haha. We're looking forward to the possibility of hosting more events at your venue in the future!"

"So my wife and I got married at the Zealong Tea Gardens in July and we felt like the location couldn't have been more perfect. Every time we got out of a meeting discussing our wedding, we always felt at peace and very comfortable with our decision. The onsite accommodation- There are 8 bedrooms, 2 Kitchens and multiple bathrooms, all with ample parking within an easy walk or a a 30 second drive to both the ceremony and reception areas meant we didn't have to stress about getting to and from places, which allowed us to really relax and enjoy ourselves. We had a vision of bringing 2 families and groups of friends together and it nailed this. It was nice having the day after the wedding to relax and continue to celebrate and have a quite day for my wife's birthday.

Every part of the venue was stunning - All of the photos look incredible - The food was absolutely amazing and 2 months later we are still raving about the NZ cheese board and the 12 hour slow cooked lamb - mmm so good!! The staff were exceptional!! In particular our event co-ordinator, Malin, was a great communicator and with an eye for detail and a warm and caring nature. Even when meetings ran over time and we had to wait, this was not a bad thing. My wife loved that it gave us an opportunity to sample the exceptional free teas and talk to the friendly staff. To the team at the Zealong, Thank you so much!!"
