Venue Testimonials
From the moment we booked to the day of our wedding, the team has been hands-on every step of the way (for a year and a half!). It was very good to have the ceremony and reception at the same place, and the best part is if you book with Crowne, you get a wedding coordinator for the day to run the event. Our dedicated wedding coordinator has been absolutely wonderful in keeping us up-to-date throughout the year.

The Crowne Plaza was an amazing all-inclusive venue that we chose for our wedding. The team were very organised and provided a high-quality service. They catered to all of our dietary needs and provided support and guidance throughout the planning process.

We recently had our wedding (both ceremony and reception) at Crowne Plaza Hawkesbury Valley, and we were so amazed at how lucky we were to have such a helpful team at the hotel to make sure our day ran without any hitches! The day ran so smoothly with the staff checking in with us to ensure our ceremony was okay to go ahead (lakeside) after rain the day before, and the reception (Glasshouse Gazebo) was a perfect place to celebrate with our 110 guests.
