Shimmering Nights - Byron Bay WeddingsApr 08

Set amongst 10 acres of private, sub-tropical gardens with 4 magnificent 250-year-old fig trees, The Figs Byron is your perfect wedding venue. Panoramic views encompassing the Nightcap Ranges, through to Mt Warning and Mt Chincogan, and then to the ocean, with surreal sunsets. The expansive gardens feature a myriad of rare and exotic palms, flowering trees and shrubs, and more than 500 metres of meandering pathways, much of it wheelchair accessible. Its central location, near the beaches and towns of Byron Shire, and just off the M1, provides for easy access to both the venue and all the attractions of Byron Bay and the hinterland.

The Figs Byron includes 3 newly built, high quality, self-contained deluxe suites (sleeps a total of 8), and a newly renovated 3-bedroom cottage providing onsite accommodation for a total of 14 people. One deluxe suite is fully disabled friendly.

There are a number of stunning wedding ceremony sites from which to choose, and a large marquee site able to accommodate either a clear sided tent or tipi of your choice for up to 120 guests.

We believe that your wedding day is one of the most important and memorable days in your life. By providing you with relaxed and beautiful surroundings, we encourage you to take your time to enjoy the preparation period, the actual day and the pleasure and afterglow in the day/s after the special day.

This is the perfect canvas for you to create your unique dream wedding.

Hinterland House is a beautifully refurbished 1906 mansion hidden just one minute from Bangalow and 10 minutes from Byron Bay. This stunning heritage listed homestead offers uninterrupted hinterland views and is open for weddings and elopements of up to 140 guests.

Sitting on a 20-acre macadamia plantation the homestead boasts vine-covered walls, handcrafted stone masonry, leadlight windows and large wraparound verandahs, creating the ultimate romantic backdrop for your celebration.

Guests are greeted by a winding palm tree-lined driveway as they make their way up to the hilltop wedding venue. The picturesque property offers a variety of ceremony locations and lush manicured lawns for outdoor receptions.

Those looking for onsite accommodation can choose to stay in the sprawling homestead and its two adjoining cottages. Hinterland House can sleep up to 18 guests with a total of eight bedrooms, four bathrooms and two fully equipped kitchens spread across the home. The venue is home to soaring 16ft ceilings, a 14m swimming pool, fire pit and BBQ facilities

At the end of a single stretch of sand, your guests look to the north to the most easterly point of Australia – the Byron Bay Lighthouse. There is salt in the air, eucalypts crowded thick over the hills, and waves rolling in from the point.

After the ceremony, the guests walk a minute over the sand dunes through a simple back gate to reveal the minimal Balinese-inspired masterpiece that is Barefoot at Broken Head.

The huge central living pavilion opens up through accordion doors to the tropical garden and huge decks in which are set four other buildings, where the families and couples that are staying can have perfect privacy when they desire, and huge common areas when they would like to commune.

There are five luxury bedrooms and a separate kitchen and dining area overlooking the pools where you can watch the kids frolic in the 30cm deep reflection pool or dive deep into the 20m lap pool, both set in golden sandstone.

In the days before and after your reception have relatives or friends to stay, ride the bikes along the beach at low tide, or drive 10 minutes into town to enjoy Byron’s restaurants. With the sound of the sea from your bed and a world-class point break a minute from your room – this is the ultimate Australian beach house.

Co-ordinators love weddings at Barefoot at Broken Head because it’s all here – no need to organise a professional kitchen, bathrooms, electricity, decorations, cool room, marquees, public liability insurance, gate attendant, rubbish removal or indoor/outdoor ceremony options. All this is included in the reception fee.
