Getting there

Travel

Ballina Airport is a short 30-minute drive to the heart of Byron Bay. However with limited direct flights, guests may consider flying to Gold Coast Airport and hiring a car for the one-hour trip down.

Accommodation

We’ve found a few accommodation options for a range of budgets:

Warung Guest Houe ~ $250 per night
Bayhaven Lodge ~ $250 per night
The Lord ~ $300 per night
Crystalbrook Byron ~ $350 per night
The Atlantic (Adults Only) ~ $400 per night
Waves Byron Bay ~ $500 per night
Basq House ~ $575 per night*

* Discount available when booking directly

If you're travelling with a group, there are plenty of Airbnb & Vrbo (Stayz) house options. We’d strongly recommend booking early as it is school holidays so accommodation may go fast!

Finer details

Little Ones

As much as we love your little ones, we’ve decided to keep our wedding day as adults only.

For our welcome and recovery events, kids and family/friends who have travelled up with you are more than welcome to join.

If you're in need of a babysitter over the weekend, please let us know and we can help organise group or individual childminding. Alternatively, we have been recommended Coastal Babysitters or Rugrats as local childminding services.

RSVP

We can't wait for you to join us! We ask for you to please RSVP by 7 July 2025 to assist with planning.

Please include any dietary requirements and reach out if there's any changes to your RSVP prior to our wedding.

Unplugged Ceremony

Although we know everyone loves to get a photo of the happy couple during the ceremony, we ask for guests to please respect our wishes for an unplugged ceremony so phones are not front and centre in our professional photos and video.

Our celebrant will however announce a quick photo break at some stage, so this will be your chance for a quick snap!

Gifts

If you do feel the need to give us a little something, there will be a wishing well on the day.

If cash is not your thing, then we would love for you to make a donation to 'Let's Beat Bowel Cancer' in honour of the beautiful Lynne Kennedy-Bush. We will have a donation box available on the day.

Dress code

Think formal but fun! Our little spin on formal attire so people dress fabulously, add some colour but are also comfortable on the day.

As our wedding will hopefully be outside and with plenty of sunshine, lighter materials may be preferred and full tuxedos are not required for the guys.

And ladies, as the ceremony will be outside (think sand and grass), might be worth keeping the stilettos at home and going with a more block heel selection.

Byron can get a little colder in the evening in October, so we would recommend a jacket/coat, although our reception will be inside!

Share your photos!

We'd love to see all your photos taken across the wedding weekend, so please upload here!
