Idyllic Wedding Venues at Woodlands

If you’re looking for wedding reception venues, look no further than the historic Woodlands of Marburg.

Located on 250 acres of rolling hills and gardens in the picturesque Marburg Valley, the restored 122-year-old site has everything needed for your perfect day – and more.

Just a 15 minute drive from the Ipswich CBD, Woodlands of Marburg offers a range of beautiful settings for couples looking to tie the knot, blending history with modern facilities.

Among the options for wedding ceremony locations is the Woodlands of Marburg chapel. Seating up to 65 guests, the chapel is the newest addition to the estate but is more than 100 years old, retaining its old-world charm.

The quaint chapel, built in 1881, serviced the small German community in Tallegalla before it was relocated to the Woodlands in 2006. On the Woodlands site, the chapel has been given a second lease on life and looks set to wow visitors for many years to come.

But the glorious wedding ceremony options at Woodlands do not end there.

A range of stunning gardens and lawns make an open air ceremony more amazing than you ever imagined possible. From the open-aired grotto with serene rock altar to the veranda of the mansion or the Bunya Pine garden with views over the Marburg ranges, each setting is a thing of beauty and offers ample seating and standing space.

Once your dream-come-true wedding ceremony is over, Woodlands of Marburg can play host to a stylish reception in one of its four function and event spaces. All four spaces are located in the century-old Woodlands mansion and have undergone extensive renovations and restorations.

The Thomas Lorimer Parlour, which seats up to 40, and the Brockwell Gill Banquet Room, which seats up to 35, are the mansion’s original dining rooms and are located on the ground level. With chandeliers and the original fireplaces creating the perfect atmosphere for a wedding reception, the dining rooms are a sit to behold.

For couples looking for a bit of mystery in their wedding reception, the mansion’s Sandstone Cellar, which is rumoured to be haunted, fits the bill. The cellar seats up to 30, allowing for a small but intimate gathering.

The Woodlands mansion’s Jacaranda Room seats up to 70 people and overlooks the Marburg ranges from the wooden decks.

Finally, the marquee is Woodlands’ largest space for a wedding reception, seating up to 350 people to make for an unforgettable event. Large windows and sliding doors on either side of the marquee allow the cool evening breezes, as well as the magnificent view of the mountain ranges, to add to the ambience.

And for those wanting something more unique, Woodlands of Marburg can tailor a reception space to suit in any of its outdoor gardens.

So when you’re looking at wedding venues, Queensland people agree – Woodlands or Marburg is the place to be.
