Vines, Views & Unforgettable Moments

‍

Set high above the shores of Lake Wānaka, Rippon is more than just a wedding venue – it’s a place where nature and celebration come together in breathtaking harmony. The rolling vines, the stillness of the lake, and the ever-changing light over the Southern Alps create a kind of magic you can’t quite describe – but you feel it the moment you arrive. At the heart of it all is the Rippon Hall, a warm, elegant space with a picture window that captures the view like a painting. Whether you're gathered on the lawn in the natural amphitheatre for your vows, dining under the canopy, or dancing fireside into the night, every part of Rippon feels intentional, timeless, and connected to the land.

At Moreish Kitchen, we’ve been lucky enough to cater countless weddings here – and every time, we fall in love all over again. It’s a venue that invites you to slow down and savour – the view, the wine, the company. We know how to make the most of the flow between indoor and outdoor, how to let the food reflect the season, and how to work in harmony with the space and the incredible team at Rippon to make the day feel effortless for you. If you're dreaming of a Central Otago wedding steeped in natural beauty, with world-class wine and unforgettable food – Rippon is the place. And we'd be honoured to help you celebrate it.
