Rose & Smith is a beautifully restored teahouse nestled in the lush Wairarapa landscape, offering a rustic yet elegant setting with a relaxed, intimate ambience. Whether you're dreaming of an outdoor ceremony beneath the trees, a candlelit family-style feast, or dancing under the stars, this versatile venue brings it all to life. Created by owner and creative director Paula Bevege—who brings over 20 years of wedding planning experience and a deep love for the region—Rose & Smith delivers a seamless and stress-free celebration. At its heart is a signature family-style dining experience, where guests gather over generous sharing plates cooked over fire and coals in the custom-built outdoor kitchen. Here, food is more than a detail—it’s a defining part of the celebration. Couples booked for the upcoming season are invited to the annual “Taste” event, a special opportunity to experience the full food, beverage, and service offering that makes Rose & Smith truly unforgettable.
