"My Perfect Wedding" review

My Perfect WeddingRomance was alive in the rainforest during heartfelt open air ceremony.
We got married under a magnificent 300 year old fig tree in an open air chapel in the rainforest standing in a circle of jade flowers.

Testimonials

Thank you Sharon & Gene for sharing this piece of paradise with us! It is a magic spot, a world away from Sydney and a place where dreams come true. Sharon your recommendations for the in-house catering from Red Ochre on our first night was glorious! The food was excellent, and there was no pressure to eat quickly! Very spoilt. The massages got us both very relaxed very quickly and then the Hot Air Balloon (Champagne Balloons) was incredible! Nothing was too much of an effort for them. It was luxury.

Paronella Park capped off a weekend of “Dreams Come True”. This was such a special holiday for us and we will definitely be back. LOVED the glass bar (Steve wants one!!).

Thank you for opening your paradise to us, we loved it.

~ Irene and Steve, Sydney

Our stay at Misty Mountains Nature Retreat was a week of pure romance and indulgence. The sheer beauty of the place, and the fact that it was our very own playground created an experience unlike any other - you are a hard act to follow!

Every detail has been meticulously thought of, such as the fabulous glass bar, the enchanting lights in the pool and garden at night and the think tank next to the most beautiful and secluded creek that allows all your cares in the world to be dissolved by the magical sounds of the rainforest.

It was the most romantic place imaginable to propose to my partner and we both decided that we could not find a more stunning location and venue to have our tropical wedding and reception.

Thank You Sharon and Gene for your truly wonderful hospitality and support in making our special days something to cherish forever, (and mostly thanks for affording us the privacy we were looking for on our honeymoon/holiday).

~ Michael and Kate, Sydney

Having stayed at some of the leading resorts around the world we didn't realise that Australia offered such a private retreat which is so unlike any where else where it is impossible to share privacy together - a great big thankyou (we look forward to visiting M.M. again soon to see all the beautiful attractions we missed this time).

~ J & D, Perth

Your website doesn't do full justice to Misty Mountains - we were expecting something out of the box but nothing like the actual experience. Thanks for a fabulous holiday.
