Public holidays and surcharges?
I'm planning a wedding and my mum thinks Australia day is a great day to get married. Wedding is Jan 2019. Australia day is Saturday and Saturday is a little expensive for my partners family. We were considering the Sunday 27th and the next Monday is the Australia day public holiday Is there any surcharges on Sundays or public holiday long weekends? We just don't want to be swamped in surcharges and have a super expensive wedding
Quamby Estate
Hello,
We do have a 15% surcharge on all catering from Weddings booked on a Sunday or a Public Holiday. We have this to cover the increase in staff costs on these days, and it applies to the food costs only.
Kind regards,
Quamby Wedding Team

Quamby Estate
We recommend seating arrangements depending on which of the many beautiful spaces you select within our venue.
For intimate weddings in our Homestead Dining Room (former ballroom) we recommend a long banquet style down the length of the room, this suits the grand style of the room and the long shape. For receptions in our Sir Richard Dry glass Pavilion, which has a much larger capacity we find round tables are most popular. Round tables allow for larger centerpeices / table decoration. Most couples choose to have a seperate rectangular bridal table; however, having no bridal table with the couple and bridal party intergrated into guests seating is now growing in popularity. We are always happy to discuss floorplans and seating arrangements with you, as every couple is different.
