A purpose-built wedding & function venue like no other.
ABOUT GOODWATER RIDGE
Arches and stone wall construction seen both in our iconic Ruin and accommodation buildings, with fountain-filled courtyards and gardens, a Mediterranean, white-washed Chapel, 3 stone cabins, and an historic styled accommodation wing of 4 large studio rooms, together create a small European village atmosphere with unique romantic backdrops at every turn.
The complex has been designed with flexibility of use and choice in mind. There are outdoor and indoor options available so that the weather has little impact on your day, enabling your event to continue no matter what mother nature has in store. The layout and features of the complex enable everything to happen on-site so that the logistics of organising any event are simplified - everything can come to you.
Be involved in the planning process as much or as little as you choose. You have the freedom to engage all of your own suppliers or, for a hands-off approach, use our partner planning and styling experts - Maple Weddings and Events - to do all the organising for you. They have a wealth of industry knowledge, brilliant logistics skills and are well connected with the local suppliers simplifying the planning process for you (and they are masters at improvisation should things not go quite to plan).
The large function room easily seats 90 and the adjoining Atrium is perfect for pre-dinner or canape-style entertaining. There is a commercial kitchen on-site enabling final prep and plating for more formal dining. Food trucks are also able to operate easily on-site, providing you with a wide choice of catering options.
We are the perfect blank canvas for launching your next adventure.
On your special day, let everything come to you.
