OVERVIEW

Bower Estate is a full-service wedding & events venue with onsite catering, event coordination & accommodation nestled in the Gold Coast Hinterland. We bring crazy ideas, stunning ideas & bespoke events to life with our team of suppliers.

The Bower Estate is 120 acres of unparalleled beauty and environmental heritage, surrounded by some of Queensland’s most stunning National Parks.

You are immersing in our family’s passion for preserving world heritage rainforest and wildlife corridors, sharing delicious food and supporting local growers and producers, including Bower’s own honey!

An event at The Bower is like no other. Every view, photo location, and secret spot has been carefully and lovingly crafted over decades of work on this estate.

The Bower Estate has an unlimited supply of beautiful locations for your ceremony.

Some of our favourite spots include:

*Hillview
Located between the Ridge, Cottage and car access, this is a stunning location for your ceremony. As your guests will look towards the west, the dramatic mountains of Lamington National Park frame your altar.

*The Fig Tree
Located on The Ridge and immediately next to the reception space, this is a fantastic spot for an intimate rainforest feeling with epic Springbrook views. A perfect location for fire pits and evening ceremonies.

*The Paddock
Perfect for a large open feeling or dramatic entrances. The Paddock is easily accessible by vehicle and makes the most of the sweeping lawns of the Estate. Follow your vows with garden games and a drink!

All our locations have good lighting for photography and stunning backdrops. 

Continue the party in our incredible clear marquee to make the most of our lush surrounds, no matter the time of day. Adorned with a roof of fairy lights, the marquee is a magical space to enjoy.

OR

Party under the stars with full private use of our reception area. The Fig Tree area offers a perfect relaxed area to enjoy post ceremony drinks and canapes whilst enjoying views of sunset lighting up the cliffs of Springbrook National Park.

The Bower Estate was so amazingly helpful in helping us to replan our wedding when the COVID19 restrictions lifted to 10 guests being allowed. It was such an intimate and picturesque day. Was so greatful that our fur baby (pet greyhound) was also allowed to stay with us and attend the ceremony/celebrations. The grounds were manicured immaculately and the on site cottage was perfect for all our family to stay in (the fireplace made it extra cosy during the cold nights). We can't stop looking at all our photos and have the best memories of our day, if only we could do it all over again.

The Bower Estate was a joy to work with from start to finish. They were friendly and polite, quick to get back to us, as well as flexible and helpful in accommodating our desires. The venue itself is a dream come true. Make sure you get pictures taken at sunset for that afternoon dappled glow. The Bower Estate was the best possible venue we could imagine for our wedding. It truly is an amazing outdoor rain forest retreat set in an amazing secluded piece of hinterland with mountain backdrops. Honestly the photo's alone are out of this world, let alone the day itself!

The Bower Estate made my dream wedding come to life. I couldn’t be more grateful for the journey the Bower Team created for us from planning to wedding day. The communication and planning with our wedding coordinator and vendors was seamless. I love the online platform the team use. It really helped us stay with our budget and made planning a breeze. The venue is absolutely stunning and all at one location. This was really important to us as we didn’t want guests travelling between ceremony and reception. I can’t thank the team enough for the passion and love they put into our wedding day. You only get married once and this team made sure that every detail and moment was one to remember.

Breathtaking venue. Words cannot describe this place, we had the best day here. The photos are forever and I cannot wait to look at them everyday!

This venue is stunning! The mountains and fairy lights were magical. The staff were friendly and accommodating to the vision we wanted to create for our wedding. The BBQ feasting menu was delicious and the best feed we've had (and any of our guests have had) at a wedding before. No one left hungry. The cottage was a great place to get ready with our bridal party (plenty of natural light upstairs for hair and makeup) and the men had plenty of space downstairs. Overall, the venue itself is breathtaking, the staff friendly and supportive, the accommodation clean and spacious, food was generous and delicious and everything on the day went off without a hitch, a credit to the organisers. Although the venue is pricey, you get what you pay for and my husband and I agreed that a beautiful place and a good feed was important.
