Welcome Drinks - Cocktail
For those joining us the night before, come dressed in cocktail attire for a fun and relaxed night.
Wedding Day - Formal
Wedding theme: A Blooming French Chateau in Spring
Our wedding theme is inspired by our European holiday travels when Corey proposed so we would love to see our guests dress colourfully!
Ladies, think of blooming pastels and vibrant colours to brighten the day— reach for your ruffles, silks, and spring patterns (avoid white).
Gents, we encourage you to mix and match your pastel or opt for a dashing neutral suit (beige, navy, black) if that’s more your jam! Accessorise with ties, pocket squares or relax in an open collar.
Can’t find anything to wear? Do not stress, as long as you don’t show up in your pyjamas, anything you have will be fabulous!
-
Our wedding ceremony and refreshments will be outdoors. Our reception and dance floor is indoors.
-
Yes, on-site parking is available at our wedding venue at the “main car park”.
Please do not park in front of the hotel entrance or Bathhouse.
If parking spots become full, the hotel will guide you to park elsewhere nearby.
-
For those arriving the night before the wedding, we invite you to join us for a pre-wedding drink at the Milton Park Country House Hotel & Spa's bar called the Polo Bar.
This will be hosted on Wednesday the 20th of November at 4pm - 7pm. Dress code is cocktail.
We don't expect everyone to be able to make it, this is totally optional!
-
Unfortunately, the venue we’ve fallen in love with has a strict number capacity, so we are not able to accommodate extra guests.
-
Welcome Drinks
Children are welcome to attend welcome drinks!
Wedding Day
Whilst we love your little ones, our venue has a strict head count so we cannot accommodate your children at our wedding with the exemption of immediate family.
However, one of the reasons we chose our venue is to allow parents with young children to hire a nanny who can mind the children at the hotel while their parents enjoy the wedding.
See the nannying recommendations section we have provided.
Tip: we recommend staying at the wedding venue's hotel or nearby if you would like to check up on children throughout the day.
-
If you are travelling to Bowral with your children, the hotel has recommended the below nannying services for wedding day so you can let your hair down.
We recommend parents to stay at the wedding venue hotel or nearby villas so you can check up on your children if you wish.
1) South Coast Nannies call 1300 662 072
*Recommend for young children/babies
-
Please contact our wedding planner for any additional questions you have leading up to and on the big day so the bride and groom can be present.
