About Hunter Concierge

Hunter Concierge was founded by Luke Mesiti and David Lacey in 2014, two hospitality operators who had opened and run venues around the country before settling on helping visitors make the most of the Hunter Valley. The business works as a concierge and event planning service: rather than a single venue or supplier, it pulls together the accommodation, food, activities and people that an event in wine country needs. Weddings are a large part of the work. Couples get help with planning and decisions, introductions to local celebrants, florists, photographers, hair and make-up artists and live entertainment, and a team on the day to make sure everything runs. The same approach covers engagement parties, birthdays, reunions and hens weekends, often built around one of the large private estates offered through its accommodation partners, Hunter Valley Stays and Hunter Valley Holiday Homes. Catering is arranged through its caterers and chefs, from cocktail-style menus to formal sit-down dinners, and a private chef can cook for a group in its own house. Activities include private winery tours with a driver for up to six and a half hours, sunrise balloon flights over Pokolbin, Lovedale, Rothbury or Broke, and mobile massage. For businesses, Hunter Concierge organises conferences, meetings, incentives and team-building getaways, coordinating on-site catering, services and activities. Day-delegate catering packs, from breakfast boxes to grazing boxes, can be delivered to the group's accommodation from Monday to Saturday.

Pricing

Event planning is quoted to suit each wedding or event.

How We Work

An enquiry with the date and guest numbers starts the process, followed by a meeting to understand the vision. The team then books accommodation through its partner properties, arranges catering or a private chef, and brings in local suppliers such as celebrants, florists, photographers and entertainers. On the day staff look after the details, from setting tables to topping up drinks, so the hosts can enjoy themselves. Corporate groups get the same coordination for catering and activities.
