Tweed Wedding Trail 2026 Wrap-Up

The Tweed Wedding Trail returned on Sunday, January 11, 2026, and what a day it was. With blue skies, buzzing venues, and hundreds of couples exploring the region, the Tweed once again proved why it’s one of Australia’s most loved wedding destinations.

For one incredible day, nine stunning venues opened their doors, each styled to inspire and brought to life by an amazing lineup of local wedding suppliers. From intimate coastal spaces to sweeping hinterland estates, couples were able to experience the Tweed’s wedding offerings firsthand, meeting suppliers, discovering new ideas, and imagining their own dream day.

From the stylish, modern, light-filled waterfront setting of Ancora, to Osteria, one of the Tweed Coast’s leading venues perfectly positioned between the Gold Coast and Byron Bay, and the beachfront European charm of Babalou at Kingscliff Beach Hotel just steps from the sand, the rolling hills of Elysian Hills, the rustic beauty of Farm + Co. Weddings, coastal simplicity at Greenview, timeless elegance at Plantation House, the iconic grounds of Summergrove Estate, and the intimate charm of Pioneer Country, the Trail showcased the incredible diversity of wedding venues available in the Tweed.

Each location was thoughtfully styled and hosted an incredible mix of suppliers, giving couples the chance to see how different teams and aesthetics come together in real life.

Until Next Year…

The Tweed Wedding Trail continues to grow every year, and 2026 was truly something special. We’re already dreaming up what’s next and can’t wait to welcome couples back again soon.

Thank you for being part of it.
