A Summer Wedding at Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat


Colin and Vanessa tied the knot at the newly remodelled Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat in mid December, 2023. This is such a gorgeous property and great for an entire weekend of festivities, as the venue is exclusively rented for wedding parties for two nights/three days at a time. It was so convenient to have everything in one location!


Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat was severely affected by the 2018 bush fires, and they have since rebuilt their entire property. It is now gorgeous, modern, and a great destination for a wedding.

Kangaroo Valley Wedding Venues


Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat is one of my favorite Kangaroo Valley wedding venues because it really has everything - the on site cabins, the rock cathedral for ceremonies, and the reception area is the perfect size with the absolute most stunning lighting. Colin & Vanessa tied the knot with a 2PM ceremony in the rock cathedral. It was an absolute scorcher of a day; one of the 40 degree days that we had this summer. The staff at Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat were absolutely lovely, putting out waters and drinks for the guests. There were also parasols to help with the lack of shade at this time of day.
