SAY “I DO” AT LAKEVIEW — SOLD OUT 💍

Well… that happened!

When we created our very first Say “I Do” at Lakeview day for 31 October, we really didn't know how couples would respond.

Four ceremony times.
Four couples.

And they're now all booked.

We created the day for couples who want to get married without turning their wedding into months of complicated planning — a beautiful ceremony, the important people beside them, and the details taken care of.

And it seems we're not the only ones who think a wedding can be beautifully simple.

So… should we do it again?

We haven't chosen another date yet, but we're now taking expressions of interest for our next Say “I Do” at Lakeview day.

If you'd like to be the first to know when we announce it, DM us “I DO” and I'll pop you on the list.

And to our four October couples — we can't wait. ❤️

CHOOSE WHAT MATTERS
Why three nights?

Because your wedding deserves more than a few rushed hours.

Day one: Arrive. Unpack. Settle in. Your closest people are here. There's time to have a glass of w**e, catch up and actually enjoy the anticipation of what's coming.

Day two: Your wedding day.
Wake up already here. No racing between places. Get ready, get married, celebrate — and when the day is over, you're staying right where you are.

Day three: Wake up married.
Have breakfast. Talk about the night before. Laugh over the photos everyone took. Spend a little more time with the people you chose to have beside you.

Day 4: Time to slowly pack up and leave.

That's why our Signature Wedding Retreat isn't built around a few hours.

It's built around time.

Time before your wedding.
Time for your wedding.
And time afterwards.

Because after all the planning and waiting, shouldn't you get the chance to actually enjoy it?

Three nights. Your closest people. One wedding you don't have to rush through.

And because we're introducing our Signature Wedding Retreat, we're looking for our first three couples to experience it.

For weddings held by 31 March 2027, our first three Signature Wedding Retreats will be $14,000 — a saving of $2,500 on our regular price of $16,500.

Same three-night Wedding Retreat.
Same beautiful experience.
Just a rather lovely reason to be one of the first. ❤️

Planning an intimate wedding between now and March? DM RETREAT and I'll send you the details.

FOOD & W**E FRIDAY 🍷

Sometimes the best plans are no plans at all.

A bottle of local Orange w**e.
A little cheese.
A verandah overlooking the countryside.

And nowhere you need to be.

We love sharing the food and cool-climate w**es of Orange with our guests — but we also think they taste particularly good when you've got time to sit back and actually enjoy them.

No rushing off to the next place.

No timetable.

Just pour a glass, put your feet up and watch the afternoon disappear.

Perhaps that's what a weekend away is really for.

LAKEVIEW MOMENTS ☀️

What a difference a little sunshine makes.

The creek is still rushing down from Mount Canobolas into Lake Canobolas after all the rain, the canoes were out enjoying the calm water — and the Highland cows were making the most of a beautiful sunny day.

And a beautiful sunset at a recent cellar door.

Everything feels fresh, green and very happy to see the sun again.

Just a lovely spring day at Lakeview.

CHOOSE WHAT MATTERS
You could still be married in 2026.

And you don't have to squeeze your wedding into a few rushed hours.

Our Signature Wedding Retreat gives you three nights at Lakeview — time to arrive and settle in, time with the people closest to you, your wedding and celebration, and time afterwards to enjoy that wonderful feeling of actually being married.

No rushing from one place to another.

No wedding day disappearing before you've had a chance to take it all in.

Just a few beautiful days together, with your wedding at the heart of them.

And for our 2026 Wedding Retreat couples, we're adding something special.

Stay for a fourth night and make that one just for the two of you.

After your family and friends have headed home, slow everything down again and enjoy a chef-prepared dinner together at Lakeview, on us.

One more night.

Just married. Nowhere to be.

❤️

If you've been wondering whether you've left it too late to get married this year — you haven't.

Message me RETREAT and I'll send you the details of our 2026 Signature Wedding Retreat.

FOOD & W**E FRIDAY… on Saturday 🥓🍳

A blackout had other ideas for us last night, so Food & W**e Friday is arriving a little late this week!

One of the things we love about putting together breakfast at Lakeview is including some of the great produce from our region.

And one of the favourites? Trunkey double smoked bacon.

We love it — and judging by the comments we get, our guests do too. There's something rather nice about a slow breakfast in your villa, good local bacon and eggs, and nowhere you need to be.

And right now, breakfast is on us.

Book a stay at Lakeview between now and 30 September and we'll include our breakfast hamper for your stay.

So if you've been thinking about a little escape to Orange, this might be a very good excuse. 😊

Come for the views. Stay for the bacon. 😂

LAKEVIEW MOMENTS | After the rain 🌧️

We've certainly had some rain at Lakeview!

The creek flowing down from Mount Canobolas and into Lake Canobolas is absolutely rushing at the moment — so full it's almost spilling over its banks.

Everything around us is wet, green and very well watered... and the lake is certainly getting a top-up.

Meanwhile, life at Lakeview carries on.

The Highland cows are happily doing what cows do, and our pelican visitor has been back enjoying the lake again this week.

Just a few little moments from a very wet Lakeview.

And after all that rain, we're rather looking forward to seeing what spring brings. 🌱

NEED A LAST-MINUTE ESCAPE?

We've been rather busy talking about weddings lately... and suddenly realised we haven't told you that we have some lovely availability at Lakeview over the coming weeks — including this weekend.

So here's a little extra reason to escape to Orange.

Book a Lakeview stay from now until 30 September and we'll include our generous breakfast hamper for your stay - on us.

Come for the w**eries and restaurants.
Walk the trails around Lake Canobolas.
Say hello to the Highland cows.

Or simply close the villa door, open a bottle of local w**e and do very little at all.

Two people. A private villa. A couple of days with nowhere you need to be.

And if you're feeling spontaneous — yes, you could be here this weekend.

Book direct or message me and I'll help you find a date.

Complimentary breakfast applies to bookings for stays completed by 30 September 2026.

What if you could be married by 31 October? 💍

Not start planning.
Not choose a venue.
Not spend the next year organising it.

Actually married.

On Saturday 31 October, we're opening Lakeview for just four beautifully simple intimate weddings.

Your 90 minutes includes:

A styled ceremony at Lakeview
Your celebrant and legal requirements
Beautiful wedding photography
Bouquet and buttonhole
A beautiful small wedding cake
Celebratory bubbles
Up to 10 guests
And, if you'd like them involved, photos with our Highland cows ❤️

Then you're free to head into Orange with your favourite people for lunch or dinner and continue celebrating however you choose.

No months of planning. No huge guest list. No big production.

Just the two of you, the people who matter most, and a beautiful way to finally say “I do.”

We're looking for four couples ready to say “I do” on 31 October. Could one of them be you?

So I'm putting out a little challenge tonight.

Do you know someone who keeps saying they just want to get married without all the fuss?

👉 TAG THEM below.
👉 SHARE this post with someone who's engaged.
👉 Or if it's YOU — send me a message tonight with the words “I DO” and I'll send you all the details.

**FOUR CEREMONY TIMES.

A week ago, we asked:

What if you could be married by 31 October?

And you answered.

We've had messages, questions, couples come out to see Lakeview — and we now have two bookings pending for our Say “I Do” at Lakeview day.
