Weddings

Nestled on the edge of the majestic Sherbrooke Forest in the Dandenong Ranges, Marybrooke Manor is the perfect one-stop destination for your intimate, boutique wedding ceremony and reception for up to 100 guests. Built in 1940 but recently refurbished, Marybrooke also offers 20 boutique four star accommodation suites.

The night before

You may want to stay at Marybrooke the night before your wedding – maybe with your bridesmaids in our three bedroom apartment while your partner stays in the Cottage we call the ‘boys zone’. You can then use our bridal lounge to get ready on your wedding day while the boys can prepare at the Cottage with a late check out.

Your ceremony

Your ceremony can be held in our picturesque outdoor garden gazebo with white Americana chairs, red aisle carpet runner and signing table with linen. Alternatively, you may prefer our indoor ceremony area with large windows and a magnificent garden outlook. For your piece of mind it is always available as a wet weather option.

Wedding Packages

You can choose from a range of all-inclusive ceremony & reception packages tailored to your individual needs. These include Dining, Shared Platter, Grazing and Garden Party Packages.

You wont have to worry about booking a DJ, designing table centrepieces, choosing a Master of Ceremonies, creating placecards or producing a guest list. We can do all that for you.

Pricing

Each package has an all inclusive price per adult but the minimum spend requirement varies by day of the week and season, meaning if you have a smaller number of people you want to invite you can make up the minimum spend by including additional items. This enables you to truly design a package to suit your specific needs with added value while avoiding the need for you to invite extra guests.

You may be interested in our Boutique Package if you want to be married on a Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday or on any day within three months of booking.

Predinner Drinks & Canapés

With spectacular garden views, our reception room will perfectly reflect your elegant style. Predinner drinks and canapés can be provided in the wine garden and on the verandah with the Manor providing a magnificent back drop. PJ’s Restaurant & Bar is right next door to the dining room and is always available exclusively for predinners as a wet weather option.

Why not stay overnight?

With 20 recently refurbished four star luxury accommodation suites able to sleep over fifty people, we can also cater for your guests’ accommodation needs. Breakfast is included in our room rates, and all rooms are located within the Manor. You can download our suite list which shows all our accommodation rooms and prices.

Green Haven Cottage

Our ‘boys’ zone’, the Green Haven Cottage, is only 300 meters away from Marybrooke and sleeps up to eight people. With a billiard table, BBQ and large deck it is an ideal area for the groom to spend the night before their wedding, and is a great accommodation option for the larger family or those willing to share.

Photo Opportunities

Eight acres of manicured gardens mean all your photography needs are catered for within our grounds. Indoors you can also use our heritage drawing room for photographs. It is right next door to our bridal lounge which is available as a retreat for your bridal party to use after your ceremony but before you enter your reception.

Our Promise To You

Importantly, we guarantee you will be the only bride and groom onsite, as we only host one wedding a day.

And for your wedding night our gift to you is a complimentary night’s stay in our beautiful bridal suite.

We’ll also invite you back to celebrate your first year wedding anniversary as a gift from us.

Taste Test Our Menu

You are welcome to attend PJ’s Restaurant & Bar to taste our food every second Thursday evening (please note, bookings are essential). We offer a delicious, beautifully presented menu with generous portion sizes. Your guests won’t go hungry!

PJ’s is also available for your guests if they want to enjoy a drink or a meal before your ceremony. But it will not be open while your reception is underway.

The day after

And of course you can join your guests for breakfast the next day, which is a great way to conclude your dream wedding celebration.
