Ceremony Spaces

Hillstone St Lucia

Wedding ceremonies

Hillstone has become one of the most loved wedding ceremony locations to get married in Brisbane. With green parklands and a stunning golf course as our only neighbours, our home offers the perfect location for your wedding ceremony.

With such a big space at our (and your) disposal, the venue has hosted wedding ceremonies of all sizes, catering exactly to your ceremony’s requirements. Whether you’ll have 15 guests or 1,000, our personalised service will create the best wedding experience.

Our Directors Jen and Hans have brought their fresh and innovative approach to service from Sweden to Hillstone. They continue to provide flexible options for customers, ensuring you get what you want – from the time you first visit the premise and enjoy a one-on-one consultation with our coordinators, through to the final preparations.

We offer a complete wedding service with first-class features. These include:

  • Two onsite specialist wedding coordinators
  • Stunning wedding ceremony and reception spaces
  • Optional wedding golf cart photoshoot with over 100 acres of lush scenery
  • Wedding retreat accompanying The Grandview Room (to calm those pre-wedding nerves).

Ceremony spaces

Our two ceremony spaces have elegance, charm and breathtaking views.

FOUNTAIN

COURTYARD GARDEN

RUSTIC EUROPEAN ELEGANCE

The Fountain

The Fountain is one of Hillstone’s most iconic ceremony spaces. With 180-degree views of the parklands and golf course that engulf the area, you’ll have a long list of beautiful backdrops for your wedding photos. This means you’ll achieve the perfect portfolio of memories that can’t be beaten – you can see for yourself in our photo gallery.

Surrounded by manicured hedges, The Fountain is encased by an open gazebo wrapped in jasmine and bromeliads. It features exquisite foliage and also rests on the top of a hill, enjoying a beautiful breeze at all times of the day.

This gives the venue a European elegance that is as alive as the nature around it. The Mango Tree terrace also overlooks the space, giving couples the flexibility to have up to 200 guests at their ceremony.

History

Built after the Second World War in honour of those who lost their lives, The Fountain is a special place bringing immense joy to the lives of Australians. It has evolved into the most exquisite ceremony location for weddings in Brisbane.

Capacity

Maximum of 200 guests (seated and standing in both The Fountain and Mango Tree Terrace spaces).

Facilities and Features

  • 180-degree sweeping views of the golf course
  • External styling available, including red carpet entrance
  • Beautifully manicured gardens
  • Wheelchair access
  • Open gazebo – provides shade, a roofline, and frames the greens

Any wedding couple that books The Grandview Room for their reception receives exclusive access to The Fountain for their ceremony. Otherwise, The Fountain is available on a case-by-case basis.

CHARMING AND INTIMATE

The Courtyard Garden

When you first see the Courtyard Garden, you’ll surely notice it’s been designed specifically for weddings. With a wooden gazebo and tall, green hedges framing the area, the space is uniquely beautiful. Its whole layout offers you a warm, intimate ceremony location that will bring photographs to life.

The inspiration came from an old pavilion in Sweden that was dedicated to weddings, which is where its rustic European elegance comes from. We’ve also made sure it’s a place your guests will enjoy, with comfortable lounge seating, alfresco surroundings and a sweeping view of the golf course.

Capacity

Maximum of 100 guests (combined seating and standing).

Availability

The Courtyard Garden is packaged with The Rosewood Room and The Library Bar.

Facilities and features:

The space is very appealing with its versatility, as the ceremony space can transform into a reception venue comfortably seating up to 32 guests. Later in the evening, guests can move to The Library Bar for personalised bar service, dancing, port and sweets to finish the perfect day.

With a French country garden feel and gorgeous setting, this intimate and romantic space is one to fall in love with. Its top features include:

  • Sign-in table
  • Rustic timber chairs
  • Basket of rose petal cones
  • Wooden furnishings
  • Natural surroundings with hedging and lush foliage
  • Private restrooms and bar (there are no shared facilities)
  • Wheelchair access.

What makes wedding ceremonies at Hillstone so unique?

The whole venue has been designed and styled by a duo team of decorators with Australian and Italian heritage. With their combined 30 years of experience, they work onsite to maintain the highest standard of décor.

There’s just something about the lighting, lush foliage, the rustic décor of the bars, and the natural undulations of St Lucia Golf Links that gives Hillstone its enticing atmosphere. And our open verandas and outdoor terraces ensure you won’t miss out on this incredible landscape.
