Final Thoughts
The Hawkesbury area is conveniently close to Sydney, yet feels like a world away. Its greatest features are its natural beauty, with native bushland, majestic trees and the wide brown river itself.
This is a place of wonderful welcomes that is just right for a country or rustic wedding, and is also a gourmet food paradise.
Weddings anytime of year are enchanting in this lovely region. Because of the abundance of shady trees and the cool breezes off the river, even the height of Aussie summer can still bring you perfect wedding days on the Hawkesbury. And it is such a romantic place to cuddle up in winter, a mid-year wedding would also be idyllic.
