Heli Glenorchy

Are the mountains calling for your special day? Our team of local pilots are experts in recommending exclusive landing spots to make your proposal flight, elopement or mountain top wedding photography extra special. We’re a small family-owned business (endorsed by Qualmark) with a genuine connection to the Southern Lakes and over 65 years of combined flying experience. Choose from rugged landscapes in Mt Aspiring National Park, breath-taking fiords, waterfalls and glaciers, or take advantage of our exclusive landing concession at Rees Valley Station – a 18,000-hectare high country sheep and cattle station. Whatever you choose, our team will help create a memorable and unforgettable experience. We work closely with Glenorchy-based suppliers to ensure planning is hassle-free and enjoyable including photographers Holly Wallace and Dawn Thompson, florists Orange Blossom Design, wedding planners Hitched in Paradise, and celebrants. Our wedding packages operate from the township of Glenorchy, just 45-minutes from Queenstown. Heli Glenorchy’s modern helicopter fleet includes two AS350 Squirrel machines and an Airbus EC-120, all designed with the highest level of comfort and safety in mind. Get in touch to discuss a bespoke package for your big day.
