Parting Notes

We would suggest avoiding the summer months for your wedding festivities, as the tropical weather in Brisbane can be quite warm and rainy. However, many of these venues offer covered or indoor wedding ceremony and reception areas, if you're looking to get married in the summer and have your heart set on a rustic wedding venue.
