Maybe to help narrow down the time period, when did your father marry?

Maybe someone here would know in general if there were dances in the area or at a long shot recognise part of the building the photo was taken in front of:
https://www.nzmuseums.co.nz/collections/3135/paeroa-district-historical-society-museum

They say "This museum carries an extensive photographic display and complete issues of the Paeroa Gazette from 1896 to 1996, as well as supporting books and magazines, and its own annual publication The Ohinemuri Regional Historical Journal. "

[Note The Ohinemuri Journal they speak about only started in 1964 http://www.ohinemuri.org.nz/journals/9-journal-1-june-1964 ]
...out of, through, and back from New Zealand to the ends of the Earth
