WEDDINGS & EVENTS on Magnetic Island
An Island wedding, special event or group getaway
Magnetic Island is the perfect place for a wedding, a special event, or a group getaway, not only because of its natural beauty, but also because everything you need is right here.
Whether you’re looking for a formal service with a huge marquee and all the trimmings, a function room at a luxury resort, a tropical garden setting, or a quiet place on the beach at sunset for your group, it can all be arranged for your perfect day.
It’s all here, great venues, tropical gardens, resident marriage celebrants, experienced people to take care of everything including hairdressing and beauty salon requirements, photographers, caterers, musicians and group transport.
