REAL WEDDINGS

Isha & Nikhil

My husband and I recently had the most magical, Indian wedding at the Lodge. From the moment we stepped into the premises, we knew the place was for us. As the first wedding to be held there, we were a little nervous & joked about being the Lodge’s guinea pigs- however in the lead up to the big day, the team were incredibly attentive and supportive in helping us plan everything. It truly felt like they were just as invested in making our wedding perfect as we were. The Lodge team went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and address any queries. Their expertise and attention to detail were evident as they guided us through the planning process, offering invaluable suggestions that made a significant difference in creating the wedding of our dreams. On the big day itself, we were blown away by the level of service provided by every single staff member- from Brent waking at 5am to receive the make-up team through to the fun bar tenders who kept the party going until midnight. Throughout the day, every single staff made sure that all our needs were met, and they did so beyond our expectations. They were attentive, polite, and seemed genuinely happy to be a part of our special day. We felt like royalty as they catered to our every need, ensuring that our guests were well taken care of over the 3 days we stayed there. The wedding venue itself was simply breathtaking. The elegant and intimate grounds added a touch of luxury to the whole experience. Whether you’re looking to have an intimate wedding or a full blown big fat Indian wedding (like we did) we cannot recommend the Lodge enough. Brent & team- see you all at our 1 year anniversary on the 5th June 2024!

We chose The Lodge as our wedding venue and were married there in September 2023. It was an amazing experience. Compared to other venues we looked at prior to finding The Lodge, the pricing of the venue was very reasonable and we were really happy with the value for money. The venue itself is stunning. Every direction you look is tranquil and beautiful. The styling is next level - Lulu’s Restaurant and Finn’s Bar are beyond charming! From our first inspection, to when we visited for a tasting, to our actual wedding day, the venue only continued to be improved and perfected. There are so many spots for photo ops, our personal favourite was the pool area! All of the food served was exceptionally presented and super tasty. Our guests could not stop commenting on how amazing the food was, lots of them stating it was the tastiest wedding meal they have ever had. We had a welcome dinner at Lulu’s, a grazing table after the wedding ceremony, and a two course banquet style meal at the reception with our wedding cake for dessert. The accommodation was clean, practical and lovely. We utilised all of the rooms during our stay, with the majority of our wedding guests staying at the venue. We (and our guests) loved the fact that everything was in one place, and if they wanted to duck back to their rooms to freshen up or if they were ready for bed, they could simply walk home! It made logistics so easy and we did not need to organise any transport or vehicles for our day. We utilised the games room for the groomsmen to get ready and the river room for the bridal party to get ready. They were both spacious and styled to perfection! The tree cathedral and wedding hall are both stunning. The venue had lots of decorations we had access to if we wanted them to use in the wedding hall which was wonderful. We had 150 guests and there was plenty of room for tables to seat everyone as well as a large dance floor area to fit everyone. The staff working the reception were friendly and genuinely seemed happy to be there. All of the staff went above and beyond to cater to our needs during our stay. Nothing was an issue, and we were honestly treated like royalty. The team are a well-oiled machine and thought of everything. They were only a text or phone call away the entire time and on our wedding day were on the ground checking in regularly to attend to any need we may have had. They took small jobs off our plate like meeting vendors on the day and organising food and drinks for the bridal party whilst getting ready so we could just relax and be fully present. We honestly cannot fault The Lodge. If you're thinking about booking it for your wedding, stop thinking and just book, you won’t regret your decision! 🙂 Thank you so much Brent, Laura, Holly, Bek and the rest of the team for an unforgettable experience. We were absolutely flawed and super grateful for everything you all did for us. The venue is spectacular and the service is beyond exceptional. It is an absolute gem! We will be back for a visit soon! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Where do we start with this amazing venue? We chose The Lodge for our Wedding Venue and it did not disappoint! From the moment we arrived on-site, everything was absolutely perfect. The venue itself was perfectly up-kept and ready for our special day. The staff worked tirelessly ensuring we as the Bride and Groom had the most perfect day, and every single one of our guests commented on how magical their experience was. We got to enjoy a private Meet & Greet function the night before our wedding, in the champagne garden. The food and beverages at Lulu's Restaurant was second to none, and the service was great. Majority of our guests stayed onsite and we were impressed by the comfort and convenience of the accomodation. We LOVED that everything - the ceremony, the reception, and the accomodation was onsite, making it easier for our guests and less stress for ourselves. The games room (Groom Room) and the River Room (Bridal Room), were definitely an addition that made our experience intimate and one to remember with our bridal party. Organising food/catering for our wedding, was something that we were worried about initially, not being local, so we loved that this was all onsite also. The food was absolutely amazing all round, we opted for the shared feast menu and everyone commented on how good everything tasted. We loved that The Lodge, has something to offer at every turn - whether you are having a wedding, a birthday function or just after a nice place to have dinner or a weekend away. We will definitely be stopping by, whenever we are in the area. The Lodge was the perfect venue and made our wedding, more than an average wedding, and an experience that everyone will remember!! Special thanks to Amelia, Frankie, Teagan, Brent and the waitstaff & maintenance crew onsite, for making sure everything was beyond perfect! Every query, question or dilemma we had, they were there to help.

We were lucky enough to be the third wedding hosted by The Lodge Jamberoo. It was an absolute VIBE - there's no other way to explain it. The idea of planning a wedding was first overwhelming but with the right venue and team it was actually a process we really enjoyed. Ben and Brent went to every effort to make sure our guests were well fed and enjoying themselves. They had such a no-fuss, can-do attitude and 9/10 accommodated our requests. If they couldn't, they made up for it in other ways. Our guests stayed two nights which meant we could make the most of the facilities at the Lodge including, Lulu's the night before for our arrival party and on the day of the wedding our guests loved the tennis court, sauna and hot tub before getting ready for the ceremony at 3pm. We are so thankful for the planning and communication leading up to the wedding because on the day, we just enjoyed the time with our friends and family and everything just came together around us. Our guests did not go hungry, the food was incredible and so beautifully presented and the venue was, like I said, such a VIBE! The Lodge generously allowed us access to all their props and styling items which were all great quality and made the reception hall look stunning and Lulu's spoke for itself - styled to perfection. Couldn't have been happier with our experience! The rooms were basic but comfortable - we do understand that they are in the process of being revamped so with the rooms done, I would not be able to fault this place! Thank you to the awesome team at the Lodge - you helped us throw the wedding of our dreams!
