Venue hightlights
“Oaks Lake Crackenback Resort was our dream place to get married, but the thing that made our wedding was the events team. We cannot thank the 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. They 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.” — Emma P.

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 and open to one side, 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.

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.
