Tap to open
With joyful hearts, Ross and Lucy invite you to share in the celebration of their marriage — an afternoon of love, laughter and garden romance amongst the hedges and blooms of Lone Pine Estate.
Where forever becomes official
The Amphitheatre
Dinner & dancing to follow
Marble Hall
Summer pastels
Garden formal
It all happens on the one estate — the ceremony at the Amphitheatre, then dinner and dancing in the Marble Hall.
Please arrive by 2:30 PM — and we do mean 2:30. There is parking on the estate, but the walk from the car park winds through the gardens to the Amphitheatre and takes longer than you would think. The ceremony begins at 3:00 sharp.
Drinks are on us all evening, so please sort a ride or settle on a sober driver before you set off. There is more than enough parking — but far more fun in arriving together.

Last song, long hugs & goodnight
Shhh — not a word to the aunties and uncles. For anyone whose night isn’t finished when the music stops: doors stay open late, and we make no promises about how any of us will feel on Sunday.
We met in Melbourne in February 2015 — the same university, the same student accommodation, and many years of deciding we had very little to say to one another. We each came home to Auckland in our own time, years apart, and met properly all over again. It turns out we were only ever in the wrong city at the wrong time, and that some things keep finding their way back to you until you finally pay attention.Melbourne 2015 · Auckland, ever since

Kindly avoid white, ivory, cream and red.
We would be honoured to have you with us as we begin our forever. Kindly let us know if you are able to celebrate with us at Lone Pine Estate.
