We had a fabulous time at the Maryborough right across the wedding weekend. The staff were fantastic and really looked after our guests as well as ourselves. The wedding day itself was a dream come true and even the rain added to the atmosphere of the ceremony in the orangery. Claire and Brian were looking after us in the ballroom at dinnertime and were exceptional in their organisation, working around the spontaneous chaos of our speeches and grand entrance and very helpful overall. Many of our guests paid their compliments on the food claiming it's the "best wedding dinner" they were ever served. We really appreciate all the work you have done yourself in getting the big day in order for us. 

Really can't thank you and your team enough and we can't wait to return for a stay soon.
Best Wishes,

We honestly had the best day ever as did all of our guests! Everything from start to finish was absolutely perfect. Every one of our guests complimented the food and the quality of food. 

 You made organising the whole thing so easy. We really appreciate it especially as we were doing it from Australia! 

Thanks so much again!

Ellis and all the staff were so wonderful to deal with. Each and every staff member was so friendly and willing to help. We felt we were in very safe hands and would absolutely recommend it as a venue for any occasion. Our guests all were raving about the food and service Behind the scenes we had a lot of communication and couldn't get over the flexibility offered to us, even down to what colour we wanted the lights to be! Just all round fabulous.

Rob and I got married here on 10th Feb 2024.
Ellis, the wedding coordinator, is the most fantastic person to have look after every fine detail of your wedding day. She went through packages, menu tasting, and the extras we wanted to include, and the day went so smoothly and perfectly—what a dream.
Claire and Brian looked after us on the day of the wedding, making sure we were all on time for the ceremony, pictures, and reception evening. They are lovely, friendly staff.
We have received so many compliments on what a fantastic day it was, and it was definitely down to a fantastic team and stunning venue.
Guests with dietary requirements also expressed gratitude for the variety and for not having the same basic meal they had in other places.
5*, not one complaint.
Thank you

Better than perfect.
My now husband and I got engaged in the Maryborough, the staff on the night were so excited for us, they felt like friends and the hotel quickly became a special location for us.

A friend of ours asked if we were going to get married there too and recommended we meet Ellis, their amazing Wedding Coordinator, needless to say, Ellis could answer any question, provided supplier recommendations, help us outline the day from start to finish. We'd pop in for a coffee, lunch or a celebratory dinner.

In the midst of Covid, the hotel went above and beyond to help us reschedule and make sure we kept the planning magic and excitement. We stayed the night before the wedding and got separate rooms to be somewhat traditional! Getting ready in the hotel was so relaxing and it meant from the second we drove down the hill, we could enjoy the wedding build up. I had crept down the stairs of the main house to peep out a window to see my husband and his groomsmen getting ready on their balcony, the wedding photographers had given me a heads up, and they were there - it's a fantastic photo and memory now.

Our bridal party and families loved the hotel and my heart burst with happiness (and maybe nerves) when the doors to the Orangery opened and it was full of our friends and family.

The Orangery is like something that comes to life out of a fairy tale storybook, full of light, flowers, candles and honestly, the photos from there are all more beautiful than the last. The drinks reception was hosted there and the room carries music and laughter like you've never experienced.

The wedding meal was in the banquet room and the tone and setting changing to soft lights, chandeliers and fairy branches at the entrance is exquisite. Our guests raved about the food (and the wine), and, the staff on the floor, bar and entire hotel couldn't have been more helpful.

We danced the night away with our friends and families, I couldn't recommend the Maryborough highly enough, it is a dream venue.

Magical Maryborough. Must-see venue.
We were married in March and everything was marvellous. Ellis was a dream to deal with and everything she promised was delivered by the team with elegance and effortless professionalism. The Orangery was gorgeous for our ceremony and perfect for dinner and dancing for our small wedding. The whole venue was photographed beautifully. Our guests remarked on the exquisite food & wine, the quality of the service from very friendly staff and also the character of the venue itself. The fitness centre and spa are 5-star with wonderful staff. We are so grateful to everyone for going over and above to make our wedding such a memorable celebration.
The gold standard of wedding venues. Highly recommend the Maryborough.

Ellis and the wonderful team at the Maryborough,
John and I are still basking in the glow of our wedding day, and we simply cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional experience you provided at the Maryborough. From the moment we chose Maryborough as our wedding venue, we knew it was the perfect place to bring our dream wedding to life, and you exceeded every expectation.

Your support, understanding, and attention to detail were evident in every aspect of our special day. From the stunning decor to the impeccable service, everything was flawless, and we are endlessly grateful for your hard work and dedication.

Ellis, your expertise and guidance were invaluable throughout the planning process. Your unwavering commitment to ensuring our day was perfect did not go unnoticed, and we are truly thankful for your kindness and professionalism.

The Maryborough holds a special place in our hearts, not just as the backdrop to our wedding, but as the venue where memories were made that we will cherish for a lifetime.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for making our wedding day more magical than we could have ever imagined.

We cannot recommend the Maryborough highly enough after our wonderful wedding experience. From the first phone call to the final check in with us on the day itself, our wedding coordinator Ellis was so kind, warm, friendly and attentive to our needs. During the planning process we knew we could email or arrange a meeting about any concerns or questions, even the tiny details. We were always made to feel very welcome and taken care of every time we visited the hotel, in particular when we stayed the night for our menu tasting. We found Ellis' attention to detail very reassuring; everything was clarified, particularly as regards decor, timing of the day and food for our guests. We were lucky to have a sunny wedding day so our guests were able to enjoy the drinks reception outside in the garden. Many have complimented the hotel's excellent service and food on the day as well as the beautiful surroundings. All of our requests were taken care of and we never felt like we were asking too much including small but important things like moving and arranging decor items. Despite 2022 being the year of multiple weddings we were always made to feel like we were the only ones in the world getting married! Every couple wants to feel that their day is special and ours certainly was. The gardens, fountain and front entrance provided a lovely setting for our photos and the Maryborough will be a memorable place for us to come back to in the years to come.
