What is a Wellness Retreat Wedding?

A Wellness Retreat Wedding is a multi-day celebration that integrates health, mindfulness, and rejuvenation into the traditional wedding experience.

Think of it as your wedding day—and a restorative getaway rolled into one.

Alongside the ceremony and reception, couples and guests are invited to enjoy activities such as:

Morning yoga, Qi Gong and guided meditation*

Nature walks, Forest bathing, sound baths, or mindfulness workshops*

Healthy, gourmet meals made with fresh local ingredients*

This style of wedding is designed to reduce stress and create a calm, meaningful atmosphere for everyone involved. It's a beautiful way to connect with yourself, your partner, and your loved ones in a serene, nature-based setting.

*You may choose to use your own caterers and retreat facilitators, or we can provide you with a list of our preferred contractors including outstanding local chefs, yoga instructors, therapists, wellness speakers, bush walkers, and more.

Celebrate with Food

Food is a wonderful way to express love, connection, and joy, and we believe it should be at the heart of every celebration. That's why at EcoView Retreat, your wedding becomes a culinary journey shared with loved ones over three unforgettable days.

Starting with casual gatherings and culminating in a stunning wedding feast or grazing table, imagine breaking bread together throughout the weekend to celebrate your special day. Our recommended chefs will bring your ideal meals to life with creativity and care, whether you envision a menu that’s healthy and nourishing, indulgent and celebratory, or a perfect mix of both.

You’ll work directly with our trusted caterers to design a menu that reflects your unique budget, tastes, and preferences, ensuring every bite adds to the magic of your celebration. From intimate breakfasts to lively dinners, the shared meals will become cherished memories as your loved ones gather to honor your love story.

At EcoView Retreat, food is more than sustenance—it’s a way to connect, celebrate, and savour every moment of your special weekend.

Bring your own beverages

One of the standout features of our venue is the freedom to bring your own beverages, including alcohol. This not only gives you the flexibility to select exactly what you and your guests love, it also helps you save significantly by avoiding the typical venue markups.

Whether you prefer a self-serve setup for a relaxed, casual vibe or want to include professional servers as part of the chefs' catering package for a touch of elegance, the choice is entirely yours. This flexibility allows you to craft an experience that perfectly suits your style and budget while ensuring your guests enjoy their drinks.
