Mitchell & Liam 💕 What a day!

Your beautiful review absolutely made my day – thank you!!
As your Wanaka wedding coordinator,
I absolutely give every wedding my all because I truly want each couple to have the best day ever.
And you two? You absolutely nailed it! 👏

From setting up your ceremony site and styling the tables to personally greeting your guests as they arrived – I was there to greet themeith a big smile. I even played MC for the night, helped with group photos, kept the venue looking fresh all day, and yes… snuck in a little dance too! 🕺💃 I might not be a clone, but I did clock up over 45000 steps making sure everything ran seamlessly from start to finish.
It was such a joy to meet your fun-loving family and friends – what an incredible crew. Big love and big hugs to you both – it was an absolute honour to be part of your day. 🫶

It's not all about the bride 🤵

Picture this:
The bride is getting ready, surrounded by laughter, a glass of bubbles in hand, enjoying every special moment. Meanwhile, the groom? He’s running around the venue, double-checking table arrangements, chasing vendors, and making sure everything is perfect. Not exactly the calm, joyful wedding day he imagined, right?

Weddings aren’t just about the bride’s big day—they’re about both of you. And the last thing you want is for the groom to be stressed out managing timelines and logistics instead of soaking in the excitement.

That’s where hiring a wedding planner or On The Day Coordinator makes all the difference.

Let Us Handle the Stress

Venue? Done.
We’ll set it all up so the groom can relax with his mates.

Vendors? Covered.
We fix any issues—no frantic calls needed.

Memories? Made.
Enjoy every moment while we manage the details.

I'm Sonya from Girl on the Ground that's Wanaka Wedding Hires sister business, I bend over backward to make your day all about the two of you.

Let's talk about your wedding.
Comment, Yes and I'll contact you

I've been in the Wanaka Wedding industry for over a decade, My favorite part of the day is watching the groom see his very soon-to-be bride walk down the aisle.

I still get goosebumps and butterflies at every wedding
