Let us know your dream date, and we’ll confirm availability. You can also browse our seasonal portfolio to see which time of year inspires you most. The earlier you book, the more flexibility you’ll have in choosing dates, but rest assured, we can also accommodate couples who wish to marry sooner.
To confirm your wedding date, we require a completed booking form along with a $950 NZD deposit. The remaining balance is only due two weeks before your wedding day, giving you peace of mind and plenty of time to plan.
No, sorry. Part of the adventure is knowing you’re in the hands of a team who live and breathe these mountains. With over 15 years of experience, we have our own trusted photography team who know these landscapes inside and out and aren’t just here to take pictures - they’re mountain-savvy guides, safety experts, and storytellers who know exactly how to capture the wild beauty of mountains with you. Their unparalleled knowledge of locations and weather ensures your experience is both safe, adventurous and extraordinary. Chasing the best light and the most breathtaking backdrops is what we do best.
Your safety and experience are always our priority. We’re flexible, if conditions shift, we can adjust timing, explore alternative locations, or even move your wedding to the next best day. To give us the best chance of perfect conditions, we recommend allowing 2 to 5 days in Queenstown, depending on your chosen package. This way, we can create the most seamless and unforgettable experience possible.
Absolutely! We can accommodate guests who’d love to share in your special day. Heli Weddings operates with a maximum of three helicopters, allowing for up to 14–17 guests to join your celebration.
Because helicopters are weight-restricted, we’ll need the full names and weights (in kilograms) of everyone flying to confirm the exact number of helicopters required for your group.
We recommend that guests travel to one mountain location for the ceremony, while the two of you continue on to additional photo locations if you wish. You’re also welcome to add extra photo time on the ground for relaxed family portraits or casual reception-style photos — a perfect way to capture more memories with your loved ones.
