Nation’s First Wedding Auction for Telethon

Nation’s First Wedding Auction for Telethon

In association with the Big Night In Telethon, supporting KidsCan StandTall Charitable Trust, Canterbury’s leading businesses are banding together to donate their goods and services to form a very unique wedding experience!
If thinking of getting married, Christchurch is the place to be- international visitors also welcome!

This is an amazing opportunity for a lucky couple to bid at auction and receive an entire wedding, all ready prepared for them, which includes a designer dress, limousines, photos, hair and beauty styling and much, much more.
The lucky bidding couple will be receiving an entire wedding package that may only cost them a fraction of the cost, with no stress and be donating their support to the needs of children in New Zealand. What a way to start up their commitment of marriage!

The nation’s first ever The Canterbury LIVE Wedding Auction & Fashion Show will be taking place at the Chateau on the Park on Sunday, 2nd August 2009. The event will be starting at 2pm with a meet and greet with the sponsoring companies followed at 3pm by a Fashion Show of new season Bridal Wear, culminating with the Auction of individual items and the Wedding Packages at 4pm.

This promises to be a wonderful afternoon of entertainment with a celebrity auctioneer, Phil McGoldrick, local business leaders and, of course, the event will be recorded and televised for the Big Night In Telethon.

All proceeds from the Auction will be donated to the Telethon Kisdcan.
“Kidscan StandTall Charitable Trust is a national charity dedicated to ensuring all Kiwi kids affected by poverty can look forward to a brighter future”.
