About Gabbinbar
Gabbinbar is a place where love stories have been intricately woven for over a century. From its magnificent homestead to its serene 160-year-old gardens and towering ancient trees there is an indelible magic that can be felt by all who enter its grounds. In the 19th century, Gabbinbar was the summer residence for the Governors of Queensland. They would gather, with loved ones and friends, to enjoy long lazy days that merged into star-filled nights alive with laughter and relaxation—celebrating each moment that makes life special.
Honouring this tradition, our dedicated team, committed to crafting exceptional experiences, will stand alongside you, dedicated to intricately weaving your every desire into the fabric of your wedding day. We openly offer our warmth and mastery, crafting a profoundly personalised wedding experience tailored to your vision. With our seasoned touch, every detail and moment is meticulously planned, thoughtfully arranged, and harmoniously orchestrated.
Craftsmanship lies at the heart of all we do, and Gabbinbar offers a wedding package that accounts for even the smallest of details to deliver an exceptional experience. Seamlessly blending time-perfected planning, experienced attention to detail, and tailored hospitality, our offering ensures your wedding can unfold with excitement and joy.
The Gabbinbar package is all-inclusive, providing exclusive use of our 13-acre manicured estate and all of your wedding day furniture and equipment needs. The food and beverages for your day are taken care of with our four-course menu crafted from the finest ingredients, accompanied by 7.5 hours of sommelier-curated wine and beverages. At the heart of our offering is our bespoke wedding planning and highly trained team, who will ensure you and your guests experience extraordinary, personalised service both leading up to and on your wedding day.
At Gabbinbar you are invited to embark on a journey that will forever be etched into the tapestry of your lives. Our team would be honoured to help you write the next chapter of your love story.
