Venue Review: House of Laurels

House of Laurels is a wedding reception venue, ceremony venue and luxury accommodation all in one. There is plenty of space available in the main house and guest houses for many, if not all of your bridal party and wedding guests. 

There is an innate romantic feel to the venue, the lavish rooms boast fifteen foot ceilings elegantly lit with antique chandeliers, marble spa bathrooms and French doors opening up to the veranda that leads to perfumed manicured gardens. 

Wedding ceremonies can be held in the beautiful gardens, while a marquee and pavillion reception allows you plenty of space to entertain up to 140 seated guests, or 200 for a cocktail-style wedding. With six varying wedding packages available, there is plenty of flexibility for you to choose an option to suit both the style of wedding you have in mind, and of course that pesky budget.

This Saturday and Sunday, January 12-13, House of Laurels is open for inspection to anyone who would like to stop in and have a nosy, as part of the Maleny Montville Wedding Professionals Bridal Showcase. There will also be a delegation of incredible Sunshine Coast hinterland wedding professionals exhibiting there, ready to meet you and answer all your questions about your wedding day and the services they offer.
