Venue Testimonials
The Bower Estate made my dream wedding come to life. I couldn’t be more grateful for the journey the Bower Team created for us, from planning to the wedding day. The communication and planning with our wedding coordinator and vendors were seamless. I love the online platform the team use. It helped us stay with our budget and made planning a breeze. The venue is absolutely stunning and all at one location. This was important to us as we didn’t want guests travelling between the ceremony and reception. I can’t thank the team enough for the passion and love they put into our wedding day. You only get married once, and this team made sure that every detail and moment was one to remember.

The Bower Estate was a joy to work with from start to finish. They were friendly and polite, quick to get back to us, as well as flexible and helpful in accommodating our desires. The venue itself is a dream come true. Make sure you get pictures taken at sunset for that afternoon dappled glow. The Bower Estate was the best possible venue we could imagine for our wedding. It truly is an amazing outdoor rainforest retreat set in an amazing secluded piece of hinterland with mountain backdrops. Honestly, the photo's alone are out of this world, let alone the day itself!

The Bower Estate is truly breathtaking, and the team there is nothing short of exceptional! Everyone is so supportive every step of the way and will go over and above to bring your wedding dreams to life. We couldn’t be more grateful for their dedication to making our day perfect, and the whole package with Ridgeway Group for catering and Wilde Flora for florals makes the whole experience so seamless. Knowing that everything was planned to perfection and waking up in the complete serenity of the cottage was everything you could hope for as a Bride! Our day was absolute perfection, and after months of planning, it was so special to have everyone from the Bower team there with us and supporting us on the day too. A huge thanks to everyone. We wish we could do that day over and over!
