Howqua Lodge

Description

Private. Relaxed. Yours for the weekend.

Located near Mansfield in Victoria’s High Country, Howqua Lodge is our home, and we’re proud to share it with couples looking for a relaxed, genuine wedding surrounded by family and friends.

Rather than squeezing in weddings every weekend, we only host a limited number each year. That means you’ll have exclusive use of the property, plenty of time to settle in, and no feeling of being rushed - the weekend is yours to enjoy.

One of the things couples love most is the flexibility. You’re free to choose your own caterers, drinks and styling, creating a wedding that reflects your personalities and your budget. From food trucks to cocktail-style celebrations, a sit-down dinner or a spit roast under the stars, the choice is completely yours.

We also believe in keeping things simple and transparent. Our wedding package includes many of the essentials that other venues charge extra for - such as furniture, market umbrellas, wine barrels, cool room and more - so when you compare everything that’s included, Howqua Lodge offers exceptional value without compromising on quality or experience.

With panoramic views across the Howqua Valley, plenty of space to celebrate, on-site accommodation, and beautiful locations for your ceremony and photos, everything is in one place so you can spend more time with the people who matter most.

We’re hands-on owners who genuinely enjoy helping our couples. We’ll answer your questions, share local recommendations, and quietly make sure everything runs smoothly on the day, while still giving you the freedom to celebrate your wedding your way.

If that sounds like the kind of wedding you’re dreaming of, we’d love to show you around.

"Sophie and Simon are amazing! We had the best time of our lives — a wedding everyone will talk about forever. We are so lucky to have found this beautiful venue with fantastic owners. Sophie and Simon went above and beyond to make our day super special. We highly recommend Howqua Lodge!" — Georgia M.

"We recently had our wedding at Howqua Lodge and cannot recommend it enough. The venue and location are stunning, with excellent facilities for creating the rustic-themed wedding we wanted, along with beautiful views of the valley. We loved the on-site accommodation, which was comfortable and perfect for both preparation and rest. Sophie and Simon were incredible hosts who went out of their way to support us in the lead-up to and during the event. Thank you again!" — Nick C.
