Getting married in one of Queenstown's most popular venues is
likely to become more expensive for those living outside the
district.
The Queenstown Lakes District Council's community services
committee yesterday decided a new ''wedding rate'' of $1720
be imposed on users of the Lake Hayes Pavilion during the
December-May wedding season.
Two-thirds of couples getting married at the facility come
from elsewhere in New Zealand or Australia. Local couples
will continue to be charged $650.
