Ceremony and Reception Venues in One Place

Say your vows by the river, drift into a cocktail hour on the lawn, and sit down to dinner under the lanterns, without a single guest getting back in a car. Our own team hosts the day from first arrival to last dance.

With both indoor and outdoor spaces, your day is never hostage to the forecast: every package carries a wet-weather contingency plan.

A Romantic Escape in Nature

A short drive from the Gold Coast's beaches and within easy reach of Brisbane, the estate trades traffic for the Coomera River, lush lawns and gardens that flower purple with jacaranda each spring.

The setting does the styling for you: photographs on the jetty, under the trees or in front of the barn need no backdrop but the place itself.

Hosted by the Rivermill Family

A dedicated event coordinator plans the day with you and runs it on the ground, and the kitchen, bar and service staff are all ours, not contractors meeting each other on the morning.

Your dog is welcome at the ceremony too; we are a pet-friendly venue.
