What you’ll love about your wedding at Lake Crackenback Resort & Spa New South Wales:

  • Breathtaking wedding settings. Lake Crackenback Resort & Spa boasts some of Australia’s most majestic wedding settings, nestled in the gorgeous Snowy Mountains.

FAQ

Our alternative indoor location for a Ceremony would be inside Cuisine Restaurant or the Alpine Room (depending on guest numbers). Lakeview Stage is another location but is only semi sheltered, so this location is only suitable for smaller groups.

Absolutely, every couple is unique and therefore the wedding styling should reflect your personalities. You can assign a family member or friend to set up the reception/ceremony on your behalf or choose to book your wedding coordinator to do so for you at an extra cost.

*Ask about our great list of hire items available at the Resort*

Most definitely! The wedding coordinator’s role here at Lake Crackenback Resort is to be there from your initial enquiry through to a warm welcome at your reception as newlyweds. Once you have settled into your reception at the beginning of the night the wedding coordinator will hand over to the restaurant supervisor to see out the remainder of your special evening.

Once a Booking Quotation has been established and agreed on, a Deposit Invoice will be issued and we will require a 25% deposit along with a signed copy of the Terms and Conditions to secure the booking.

Lake Crackenback was our dream place to get married, but the thing that made our wedding was the events team. We cannot thank Tarah and her team enough for all the emails and planning that went into the wedding ahead of the big day to make it as special as it was. Not only that, but it poured rain on our wedding day, and all the staff were able to change our whole set up so we could still have our ceremony outside undercover. Tarah went above and beyond driving us around the resort, helping with photos, bringing us food, and checking in on us. I cannot speak higher of this venue and this team.

The team at Lake Crackenback Spa and Resort are the essence of professional. Nothing is too much trouble. I was planning our wedding remotely (2 hours and 30 minutes away) and I had quite a few logistical and general questions throughout the planning process, and they were able to answer all of them quickly and efficiently. It just made life so much easier to know that no question was a hassle for them. After our special day I really got the sense that the whole team at the Resort know their business really well, and are all about making your day just that much more special. I couldn't recommend them enough.

Crackenback was the perfect venue. All our guests loved it, we had a great weekend, and above all else the staff made it so easy we didn't have to worry about anything. And after all that it was one of the more affordable places we got quotes for. Great value for money without compromising the day.
