A beautiful beginning, however you choose to celebrate.

Hidden amongst ten acres of gardens and native bushland in Pullenvale, Temple Retreat offers a private and peaceful setting for wedding weekends, bridal preparation and intimate celebrations.

Stay together before the day. Get ready surrounded by the people you love. Celebrate beneath the trees. Or simply return somewhere calm once the festivities are over.

Just 30 minutes from Brisbane, Temple Retreat gives you the feeling of getting away without having to go far.

Space for the moments around the day.

A wedding is more than the ceremony itself.

It is the night before. The slow morning. The getting ready. The laughter, the nerves, the photographs, the quiet moments with family and the people who have been there through everything.

Temple Retreat gives those moments room to unfold.

Whether you are preparing for a wedding nearby or planning an intimate celebration here at Temple, the property offers privacy, beautiful natural surroundings and the freedom to make the experience your own.

Temple Retreat is ideally positioned near some of Brisbane’s beautiful western suburbs and wedding destinations, including:

Bundaleer Rainforest Gardens
Wild Canary
Pullenvale Hall
Brookfield and surrounding venues

It makes Temple Retreat an easy home base for couples, bridal parties and family who want somewhere peaceful to stay without being far from the celebration.

A little more calm.

For couples and bridal parties who want to slow things down even further, optional wellbeing experiences can be added to your stay.

Private yoga, meditation, restorative movement and massage can all become part of the lead-up to the day, giving you a little space to settle before everything begins.

Stay for something special

Some stays are about getting away. Others are about what you're coming together for.

Temple Retreat offers a beautiful home base for celebrations, wedding weekends, time with family and those occasions that deserve a little more space.

For bridal parties, our Wedding Preparation Weekend offers a private place to stay together, get ready and enjoy the moments surrounding the wedding day.
