    "Settlers Rest..what a magical place! From the first moment we went there, we knew it was the right place for us to get married. We loved how big the venue was - it accommodated our 170 guests very easily. We loved that everything was held at the property, from a welcome dinner the night before the wedding, to both bridal parties getting ready in different areas of the property, ceremony and reception and all the photos. There were a few other little things that made this venue special to us, like the bright stars in the sky, the chance to have a fire pit, the beautiful cows to set the scene."

    "WOW – what a spectacular venue! We couldn’t have asked for a better place to have for the weekend of our wedding. From all the different spaces within the venue, to the little details – it was all perfect! Emma & the team at Settler’s Rest have such a special thing going on here and the feeling we had while being in this little slice of country paradise is something we will never forget. We absolutely loved all aspects of the accommodation and felt so well looked after. We will be forever grateful for your support leading up to and on the day of our wedding. Couldn’t recommend Settler’s Rest, Emma & the team more!

    "Settlers Rest is the most perfect wedding venue with the most helpful team! We cannot thank Emma and her crew enough for everything they did in the lead up and on the day. We were able to customise our wedding to exactly what we wanted, a relaxed and fun vibe, and Emma was able to curate this perfectly. Emma made sure the day ran smoothly and that everything was set up to perfection. All our guests enjoyed the onsite accommodation and ammenities, especially the plunge pool, and shared how much they loved the venue. Set in a valley surrounded by green hills and beautiful trees with no neighbours to hear the music, Settlers Rest was the perfect option for a perfect day. Thank you so much Emma and Settlers Rest for making our day so special!
