Weddings at Fig Tree epitomise the essence of a Byron Bay celebration, blending timeless elegance with effortless sophistication.
Nestled atop a hill, our stunning venue captures the charm of a European-inspired estate, surrounded by the awe-inspiring beauty of rolling hills, sweeping ocean vistas, and meticulously manicured gardens. Every detail – from the grandeur of the 150-year-old Moreton Bay fig tree to the lovingly restored farmhouse – invites couples and their guests to immerse themselves in moments of beauty, joy, and connection.
Your Fig Tree wedding journey begins the moment you arrive, greeted with a warm welcome from our dedicated team, whose passion and attention to detail will ensure every aspect of your day is flawless. Step onto the serene grounds and feel the peaceful atmosphere that surrounds you – truly magical! With anticipation building, you and your wedding party are invited to share an intimate ceremony rehearsal (with a glass of champagne in hand – of course), while soaking in the magnificence of the Cape Byron Lighthouse and the pristine coastline beyond.
Later in the afternoon, retreat to your luxurious on-site villa at either Sunrise House or The Dairy. A private sanctuary where you can unwind and embrace the excitement leading up to your special day.
Begin your wedding day with a sense of calm and joy as you wake in luxury to panoramic views of the lush gardens and sprawling coastline. The tranquil ambience of your villa creates the perfect setting for getting ready, while the thoughtfully designed interiors and private gardens ensure every moment feels magical. With your wedding party by your side, relish the excitement as hair, makeup, and final touches come together seamlessly without needing to leave the property, setting the stage for an unforgettable day.
When it’s time for your ceremony, Fig Tree transforms into a haven of romance. Set within lush, European-inspired gardens, the ceremony space offers a blend of intimacy and grandeur. With breathtaking panoramic views, manicured hedges and the iconic Moreton Bay fig tree as your backdrop, the moment is nothing short of extraordinary. Guests are greeted with refreshing drinks at the contemporary welcome bar, perfectly setting the tone for the celebration to come.
Styling at Fig Tree is as versatile as it is breathtaking. Whether your vision is modern and minimalist or romantic and whimsical, the venue serves as a blank canvas ready to bring your dream to life. Partnering with the planners at either Byron Bay Weddings or Elope, along with the style & hire team from The Wedding Shed, you’ll have access to an extensive range of styling options, from flowing linens and ambient lighting, to bespoke installations and statement florals. This collaboration ensures every detail reflects your unique style, creating an atmosphere that feels both personal and timeless.
The magic continues with a show-stopping moment in the majestic ‘Olive Grove’, where a bespoke tower awaits. Whether it’s sparkling champagne or zesty margaritas, this feature captivates guests and adds an unforgettable flair to the afternoon. Cocktail hour flows seamlessly from here, with expertly crafted cocktails served poolside by talented mixologists, paired with gourmet canapés made from seasonal, locally sourced ingredients – a nod to Fig Tree’s ethos and its commitment to homegrown, vibrant flavours.
While your guests unwind and explore the lush, scenic grounds, take a moment to step away together for your bridal portraits. With sweeping ocean views, rolling hills, and verdant gardens as your backdrop, every shot becomes a work of art. As the sun sets, the estate is bathed in a golden glow, providing the perfect transition into your reception.
As day turns to night, the reception in the restaurant space becomes the heart of the evening. Elegant, long tables styled to perfection with your dreamscape setting – from flowing linens to stunning florals and ambient lighting – create a sophisticated yet relaxed atmosphere. Dinner is a captivating gastronomic journey, where each dish celebrates Fig Tree’s garden-to-table ethos, transforming local produce into an exquisite culinary experience that delights the eyes as much as it does the palate. Each plate showcases fresh, seasonal ingredients, prepared with creativity and care.
Conversation and laughter fill the air as the evening builds in energy, culminating in the cutting of the wedding cake and your first dance – intimate moments shared with your loved ones. This is the perfect time to slip into your second look – perhaps a chic, dance-ready outfit that transforms from elegant to edgy as the music pulses. Twinkling lights and your favourite songs create a scene of pure revelry, with the dedicated Fig Tree team ensuring a seamless, effortless journey throughout. As the music fades and the night draws to a close, your villa awaits – a private retreat where you can unwind together, reliving the magic of the day over a glass of bubbles and your wedding cake.
At Fig Tree, a wedding is not just an event; it’s a unique, immersive experience crafted with passion, dedication, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of love and connection. Every detail, from the sprawling, luxurious grounds to the curated culinary offerings is designed to transport you and your guests into a world of elegance, warmth, and celebration. This is where dreams take flight, and the story of your forever begins.
