Crab Farm Weddings

Bay view, Hawke’s Bay

You can spend a huge amount of money at an exclusive wedding venue where a lot of effort has gone into styling the perfect ‘rustic’ look, or, you can get married at Crab Farm. Effortlessly rustic in the true sense of the word, this laid-back venue in Bay View just beyond Napier offers the perfect Hawke’s Bay wedding with all the boxes ticked; set among lush vines that make fantastic Crab Farm wines, right beside the beautiful Esk Valley (home to some of Hawke’s Bay’s best photography locations) and just over the road from the beach (and, incidentally, my home and studio!). Country wedding vibes dominate at this groovy little venue, which is only a short 10-minute drive from central Napier. A locals tip; nothing beats a Crab Farm wedding in autumn and winter, when the colours of the landscape are beautiful and the venue’s open fire is roaring.
