Meet the Sayer Family
Your hosts
Hi, we're the Sayer family- your hosts at Waingarara Valley. Karen, Pete, Alana and Sammy all work behind the bar at the venue. Pete will be your driver on your farm photo shoot.
We had always dreamt of one day opening our own rural events venue, and in 2020 that dream became a reality. The perfect property in the hills of Wainui (between Opotiki and Ohope Beach) came on the market and we were able to buy it.
In late 2021, with the building work finally complete, we opened Waingarara Valley - a rustic-style venue surrounded by stunning scenery that provides the perfect backdrop for your special event.
At Waingarara Valley Wedding Venue, you’re not just a business transaction. We treat every wedding with the care and attention it deserves because this is a once-in-a-lifetime day that you’ll remember forever.
Valley Moss & Vine.
