The Retreat Port Stephens

Rustic bush setting for the perfect wedding ceremony

Unique and private wedding venue

When you book The Retreat as your wedding venue you will find all the help you need to ensure your dream wedding plans become a reality. The experienced, friendly staff are on hand to help transform the beautiful outdoor venue space into as intimate or dramatically styled wedding area as you wish. Also, great as an indoor wedding venue, The Retreat can transform the onsite function room into a beautiful sit-down wedding reception, with a capacity of 100 guests. Choose to have your ceremony on the stunning sand dunes or against the natural rustic backdrop of the bush or at one of the many local beaches or parks. Take advantage of the Retreat’s brilliant wedding catering team and work closely with the chef to design the perfect menu to match your style and budget, or choose to bring in outside caterers or self-cater if you prefer.

Indoor wedding reception in the function room

The Retreat is, as its name suggests, a secluded, peaceful and relaxing sanctuary. It is a complete escape from the hustle and bustle of day to day life.

The Retreat is set in the natural bushland and backs onto miles of sand dunes for a truly unique backdrop for your wedding ceremony.

The beauty of The Retreat, as your chosen wedding venue, is that you and your wedding guests can all stay together onsite. You could even extend your wedding day into a wedding weekend or longer, to take advantage of this stunning part of Australia. Everything Port Stephens has to offer is on your doorstep, and all the facilities of The Retreat are free for you and your guests to enjoy.
