  • Enchanting wedding settings. Montsalvat boasts an impressive canvas of heritage-listed, fairytale-like wedding spaces you and your guests will adore. The Great Hall Gallery offers polished hard wooden floors, floor-ceiling stained glass, and whitewashed walls. The Great Hall Forecourt is perfect for an outdoor wedding ceremony — surrounded by majestic gardens that fuse European horticulture with Australian native life. The Bluestone Chapel boasts a grand exterior yet humble interior with locally-sourced bluestones handsomely ageing as Montsalvat does. For a more sunshine-soaked space, you may prefer the Long Galley with its stoned arched doorway, polished floors, crackling fireplaces, and large windows. And we can't forget about the Bastian jewel in the crown — the Great Hall — a heritage-protected space pronounced on the Montsalvat hillside, with bewitching gargoyles keeping watch, handcrafted wooden tables, and wrought-iron chandeliers.

After your picture-perfect ceremony, you and your guests can wander the mesmerising grounds for those one-of-a-kind photo ops, enjoy canapes in the Long Gallery, and recuperate in your own private bridal suite before enjoying a delightful meal in the Great Hall. 
  • Delectable catering options. From delicious plated dining options to cocktail parties, and high tea — there's a style for every couple. Focussed on crafting fine modern Australian menus, the talented Montsalvat culinary team won't disappoint. Enjoy the vibrant bursts of flavour and aesthetically pleasing presentations.
