Private island resort with stunning indoor and outdoor wedding venues.

Your private island wedding escape awaits at this five-star luxury resort in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef.

Your Wedding

Set your wedding against the turquoise waters and white sands of the Whitsundays at InterContinental Hayman Island Resort. Picture bridal preparations in the elegant Three Bedroom Hayman Beach House with its sweeping ocean views, before stepping barefoot onto Hayman Beach for your ceremony. As the sun dips low, move into the Formal Garden for a magical reception under the stars, surrounded by lush greenery and the gentle sound of the sea.

From your first enquiry through to your final send-off, their experienced team will take care of the details, tailoring every element to your vision. You’ll have the opportunity to enjoy private menu tastings, collaborate on custom styling, and make the most of their local expertise to create a celebration that feels truly your own. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or an extended multi-day experience for your guests, the island’s range of venues and flexible wedding packages give you the freedom to make it yours.

Your Stay

When the day’s celebrations wind down, retreat to one of the resort’s luxurious ocean-view rooms, suites, or private residences. Stay in the beachfront pavilions just steps from the sand, gather family and friends in the expansive Three Bedroom Hayman Beach House, or choose a secluded villa with its own pool for a private escape.

Inside, you’ll find a contemporary coastal style — think soft, natural textures, spacious indoor-outdoor living areas, deep soaking tubs, and terraces where you can sip your morning coffee as the reef glimmers in the distance. With options for groups to stay close together or enjoy their own space, it’s easy to create the perfect accommodation plan for your wedding guests.
