This romantic garden celebration might just be the perfect excuse you need, to elope!
Elope – a non-traditional, intimate wedding experience that focuses on the couple rather than the guests. Where every decision is intentional and celebrated.
Welcome to High Garden Estate, a truly spectacular venue with uninterrupted views from Stradbroke Island to Byron Bay. High Garden Estate is a boutique, bespoke venue who take a lot of pride to ensure every event is as unique as your love.
The European inspired gardens offer complete privacy and intimacy in an awe-inspiring environment. Offering exclusive use of the private gardens and estate grounds, including an onsite bathroom, parking and caterers kitchen.
Established garden celebrations need little dressing. A setting for a romantic garden celebration is as much the decoration as anything else. Set the scene with an abundance of colour, scent and tumbling textures.
Tables are for eating and drinking, as well as looking lovely. Plates, bottles, cutlery, napkins, menus and glassware can take up a lot of space, and candles. It is not an event without candles.
In addition to the most beautiful gardens, High Garden offers a chic two bedroom cottage onsite. It also makes for a wonderful pre-wedding night with the girls!
If you’re considering an intimate celebration in an exquisite garden, we’d love to hear form you! Now taking bookings for 2025, including an all-inclusive package for micro-weddings! To learn more, email ido@scenicrimbride.com.au
Planning a destination wedding all the way from LA, James and Elizabeth chose to say “I do” with an intimate wedding elopement, surrounded by their closest. Their whimsical micro-wedding took place at one of Australia’s most awarded luxury venue, Spicers Peak Lodge. Set 1100 metres above sea level on a stunningly beautiful grassy plateau, atop a soaring mountain of the imposing Great Dividing Range.
We can’t decide what we love more, that ceremony arch, the effortlessly elegant yet romantic style, or that utterly charming reception setting.
Red Tie Entertainment. Although I was skeptical having a band for such a small wedding, they were absolutely amazing. Everything from the ceremony music to the last song of the night was perfect. Our band brought such great energy to our celebration.
Gwen Floral Co. Going large on fresh flowers was my top request and Sarah nailed it! My sister loved the ground arch so much, she got an oil painting done for us as a wedding gift.
Spicers Peak Lodge. We cannot say enough good things about Spicers Peak Lodge. Especially for anyone planning a destination wedding. The lodge is gorgeous, the food was incredible and the staff could not have been more lovely, welcoming and helpful.
Scenic Rim Bride. Honestly, all the suppliers recommended were perfectly fitting. We felt so lucky to have Bronwyn from Scenic Rim Bride on our side! Despite the weather not cooperating, we felt so happy with all the decisions we made, with what we were able to control.

See some snippets below from an interview with Bronwyn McDonald, Wedding Planner/Stylist at Scenic Rim Bride. Featured on To the Aisle Australia.
“Bohemian inspired weddings aret one of my favourite trends, modern boho in particular! It was however an obvious choice for Riverwood Weddings. The Notebook theme was risky, it pushed boundaries while allowing our creative team to be open and explore new ideas.”
For those new to Scenic Rim Bride, prepare to experience the unexpected. Have you seen the styled shoot used to launch Scenic Rim Bride?
The Notebook theme became apparent when the venues wedding co-ordinator, Carmen,Kennedy shared news of a rowboat arrival. ” It was a perfect opportunity to create a modern take on the romantic drama film.” The Notebook stars Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams as a young couple who fall in love in the 1940s. The film is an adaptation of the 1996 novel by Nicholas Sparks.
Get ready to be inspired as we take you on a breathtaking journey. Filled with fresh inspiration for the romantic at heart. A play between romance, soft silhouettes and eye catching detail. A fresh look and unique influence for the modern day bride.
“I love you. I am who I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I’ve ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours.” ― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook
