Goolawah Retreat
Just a stone’s throw from the magical beaches of Crescent Head, Goolawah Retreat is the ultimate destination for couples seeking relaxed luxe wedding vibes with a coastal soul.
Blending thoughtful architecture with natural beauty, the retreat’s stunning pavilion sits at the heart of the property—an open, light-filled space that flows effortlessly into a charming courtyard. As day turns to night, festoon lights cast a warm glow overhead while guests gather around the fire pit, creating an atmosphere that feels both elevated and wonderfully laid-back.
Goolawah Retreat is a DIY-style venue, giving you the freedom to design a celebration that truly reflects you.
With a curated list of trusted, high-quality vendors at your fingertips, you can design a day that feels completely personal—whether that’s a barefoot beach ceremony, a long-table feast under the stars, or a relaxed cocktail-style gathering.
With a curated list of recommended vendors, you can handpick your dream team while still enjoying guidance from trusted professionals who know the space well.
More than just a wedding venue, it’s a full weekend experience. With five self-contained cottages on-site, plus additional camping options, your closest friends and family can stay and celebrate alongside you. The exclusive three-night stay invites you to slow down, settle in, and savour every moment—from welcome drinks to farewell brunch.
This is where weddings become more than just a day—they become a shared experience. A weekend of connection, celebration, and unforgettable memories, all set against the relaxed coastal beauty of Crescent Head.
Goolawah Retreat isn’t just a place to get married—it’s a place to truly be together.
