Katie was very profesisonal and super easy to deal with The suppliers she recommended did not disappoint ether. Our guests said the staff were very helpful and attentive. We complimented the chef the next morning. Not one dish was returned and everyone said how delicious their meals were. Our guests were constanly suprised with the way they were greeted, train ride (big thumbs up), Lost Valley wedding venue, photo opportunities, the wildlife (in particular our overseas guests) and the homestead (very classy, big surprise). Drinks and canapes on the Homestead verandah was very enjoyable while we were getting our photos taken. They loved the way the homestead was presented, the rest rooms and the attentiveness of all wait staff. We cannot thank Katie and your team (buggy drivers, volunteers, etc) enough. Still on a massive high. Please let us know if you would like a link to our professinal photos via drop box, or alternative. We will continue to tag Currumbing Sanctuary events on all our social media posts. Edwina and Brad

We had the most wonderful wedding in the Lost Valley followed by reception at the Homestead. All the staff we amazing and the events team leading up to the day were fabulous and so organised. We received so many compliments about the kitchen staff, the friendly volunteers, the food and the venue.

Absolutely incredible wedding planning process. We met with Katie two weeks after being engaged, and booked the venue immediately for the following May. Katie made everything relaxed, enjoyable and really relieved all the stress. She communicated effectively with the vendors and made the weeks leading up to the wedding so easy and enjoyable. She replies quickly and is always reachable. We booked the Hampton style venue and were the 3rd people in the venue. Our wedding was on a Sunday, the May long weekend. Figtree pond was our spectacular ceremony spot. Couldn’t recommend a more unique venue to get married at. The best part is the proceeds go to the animals. Love Britt and Ravi

Firstly Katie, our wedding coordinator was amazing. From the first day, she went above and beyond for us and I cannot fault her. The biggest thing that stood out to us was how the staff were so detailed and efficient on the night that even our guests told us how well looked after they were. It was incredible to have the team we had on the night. They were so flexible and accommodated our requests especially when I had arrived super early and requested to do the Lorikeet feeding which is one of my favourite animals. They took their time with us during our wedding photos, taking us through the different animals on the ground. Everything was so well coordinated and was such a smooth transition to everything. There was another coordinator who took over Katie and I was so blown away how much he knew even though I have never worked with him in the lead up to our wedding. Currumbin ticked all the boxes from the animals, the money going back to the animals, the location, the food, the staff - The venue was just outstanding !If I could do 100 stars I would.
