Venues Reviews

We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect wedding venue than Bonfire Station. We had our ceremony and reception here in November 2025, and we truly had the best day of our lives thanks to this stunning venue and the team. Bonfire has the most breathtaking views of the Cathedral Ranges, beautiful open spaces, convenient onsite accommodation, and a relaxed atmosphere that our guests loved. The lakeside ceremony location was gorgeous, and the fire later in the evening created a great space to socialise during the breaks from dancing the barn. Florine and the entire team were exceptional. Communication in the lead-up was seamless, and on the day the staff made sure everything ran smoothly and that we and our guests were extremely well looked after, allowing us to completely relax and enjoy the day. The food was outstanding. We chose the Texas BBQ package, and guests are still raving about both the quality and quantity of the food (second helpings, yes please)! We couldn’t recommend Bonfire Station enough for anyone wanting a stunning venue and a relaxed, unforgettable wedding day.

Nutting Hill is an absolutely breathtaking venue. Since we live abroad, we weren’t able to visit beforehand, and neither could our family. We decided to take a punt—and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. The photos of the villa and its surroundings were already stunning, but experiencing it in person was on another level entirely. Our guests were equally blown away. Many commented on how gorgeous the venue was. One of the highlights was being able to stay at the villa before and after the wedding. It gave us the chance to truly relax, enjoy the incredible views, and soak up the beauty of the villa itself. Liz and Warren, the owners, were a pleasure to work with and made everything so easy. We can’t recommend Nutting Hill highly enough—especially if you’re looking for a destination wedding venue that is still close to home.

We were recently married at Kings Creek Vineyard and it was perfect! From our first visit Kim & Ian were so incredibly helpful & kind, working with us to make the day exactly what we wanted. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The venue itself is stunning, with beautiful vineyard views and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. We also loved being able to enjoy such amazing wines throughout the day. Thank you Kim & Ian for helping us make our day so special 💗

Where do I begin. We truly had the best day of our lives at our wedding at Eaglereach. No request was too difficult, and the day ran perfectly. The organisers were always only an email or a call away, and were super relaxed and easy to communicate with. The food was INCREDIBLE and nobody left hungry. The beverage package was extremely generous. The venue even moved my arbour florals inside for extra decoration for the reception. The space has been renovated beautifully and everyone is still talking about what a good time they had at our wedding. 10/10, would definitely do it all again.

The Boathouse Shelly Beach were great to deal with from the start. From our first meeting we knew we wanted to have our Wedding there. The venue is very special, but the staff take it to the next level. They were so accommodating, efficient and lovely. The staff that worked on the night of our small wedding were excellent. They were friendly, efficient and made the night so wonderful. Everyone commented on how good the food and wine was. We had such an amazing night and can't thank them enough.

We had a wonderful wedding ceremony at The Boathouse and Mark and I couldn't have been happier. It was everything we hoped it would be. The venue was perfect, the service and attention from the team were wonderful, the food and drinks were of great quality and there was plenty to go around. We've had lots of favourable comments from our guests, who had a great time. Our heartfelt thanks to yoy for everything you did to make our wedding memorable and a very special celebration.

We cannot recommend Manly Pavillion enough! We had the best day of our lives and couldn’t be happier with how everything went. Sherlie and the team were so attentive, helpful and wonderful to work with. We felt so well looked after and had a lovely bridal attendant on the day. The food was incredible and our guests haven’t stopped raving about it. One of my favourite things about Manly Pavillion was how easy they made wedding planning. We opted to go with the in-house florist, who did such an incredible job with the flowers and made our vision come to life. We also got our cake through them, and each flavour was delicious. We wish we could do it all again! Thank you Boathouse!
