OVERVIEW

Your guests board at Brooke Street Pier and spend an hour on the water before they even arrive. It's a show-stopper — a genuine opening act that sets a contemporary, celebratory tone for the day.

They cruise the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, views of Bruny Island ahead, and step onto your grounds already relaxed and ready.

You exchange vows under the 200-year-old oak tree or in another ceremony location with the Channel as your backdrop. Then the real story begins.

Food is at the heart of what we do. Fresh seasonal ingredients from our own garden, paired with local artisan producers across the Huon Valley — Tasmania's best produce, treated with respect and elegant simplicity. The same philosophy runs through the drinks list: locally produced wines, spirits, beers and ciders that reflect the region. Three service styles give you control: Cocktail (moving, social), Family Table (shared, progressive), or Formal Banquet (seated, structured). However you want it to flow, we've handled the coordination and we'll work with you to shape it to be yours. Your job is to be present with your people.

Couples return our way saying this was one of the best meals they've had at a wedding. They remember the staff reading the room, making the small adjustments that let the day breathe. They talk about the boat ride — how it changed the energy before they even arrived.

Peppermint Bay has hosted weddings on the Channel for over 20 years. We know what it takes to get a day right.

Capacity: 160 seated, 300 cocktail | Catamaran transfers: Up to 160 guests

April 2025

My husband and I are still in awe of how perfect our wedding day was — and we couldn’t be more grateful to Zoe and the entire team at Peppermint Bay for making it all happen. From the very beginning of the planning journey, Zoe was an absolute dream to work with: organised, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in bringing our vision to life. The venue was breathtaking, the service was seamless, and the entire day flowed beautifully. Our guests haven’t stopped talking about how stunning the setting was and how well everything was run. Every detail — from the cruise, to the ceremony, and to the reception — was handled with such care and professionalism. We are so thankful to the Peppermint Bay team for creating such a special and unforgettable day!

April 2020

The team at Peppermint Bay were amazing! We were their last wedding for 2020, unfortunately due to the current COVID-19 pandemic and they could not have been more accommodating with our very last minute changes (literally the night before) - even though a lot of our friends and family couldn't make it due to travel restrictions, Peppermint Bay provided us with such a magical afternoon/night for our special day with our closest family and friends, everyone had the best time! The food was amazing!

is a reception with a cash bar tacky?

Peppermint Bay

Good afternoon, 

Not at all, we are accomodating for a range of bar options. If you would like to focus on spending your money elsewhere that this is your decision. If you would like to only provide one drink per guest as a welcome drink, this is definately possible.

I hope this helps you make a decision! 

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

Peppermint Bay

Good afternoon Daniela,

Australia Day is a great idea! We don't charge any surcharges, regardless of the day. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

Many thanks,

Sara
