Markovina Vineyard Estate

Markovina Vineyard Estate has always been one of my favourite Auckland wedding venues to photograph.

I have photographed many weddings here over the years, so I know the gardens, ceremony areas and reception space extremely well. More importantly, I understand how a wedding day at Markovina usually flows and how to make the most of the venue without your photography taking you away from your guests for hours.

Markovina gives you something that is becoming increasingly difficult to find: a beautiful country wedding setting that is still close to Auckland.

Everything happens in one place. You can get married in the gardens, enjoy drinks and canapés with your guests, explore the estate for photographs and then move naturally into the reception without anyone needing to organise additional transport.
