Parting Notes

Maleny and the Sunshine Coast hinterland is a picture postcard land of rolling hills, majestic mountains and lush rainforests. Cooler than the coast and less subject to the whims of ocean breezes, it provides a more temperate climate that is ideal for wedding celebrations.

It is warm all year round, but still subject to the Queensland wet season, with the highest rainfall in Summer and Autumn. Weddings between April and December will be ideal.

The views across the mountain ranges, as well as the bay, offer some incredible backdrops for your photos, so be sure to choose a venue that gives you maximum access to these. The region is known for wonderful food and wine, so you are sure to be treated to a feast for all of your senses on your wedding day.

A romantic and relaxing getaway, your guests will love making a whole week or weekend of this special occasion.
