Say ‘I do’ at the Runholder
We invite you to celebrate your wedding at The Runholder, the landmark destination of Wairarapa’s boutique wine village, Martinborough.
Nestled between vineyard rows and the edge of the Martinborough Terrace, The Runholder is a spectacular location for your special day.
“From the very moment we stepped into The Runholder, we knew it was the perfect spot for our special day. The venue itself is absolutely stunning — with a beautiful modern vibe and lots of space — and it provided an amazing backdrop for our reception dinner” - Nicola Johnson
The stunning architectural design of the Restaurant & Tasting Room is a warm & elegant space for you to celebrate with your guests, while the Cottage & surrounding gardens offer a peaceful & intimate setting for your ceremony.
Capture lasting memories of your day against a backdrop of breathtaking views of Martinborough’s rolling countryside, in our atmospheric underground barrel hall, or amongst our vines.
Start your celebrations with Lighthouse Gin, distilled on site, then feast on a menu of local Wairarapa produce complemented by the wines of Te Kairanga & Martinborough Vineyard.
