Hello Eydie! (wedding planner)

We have just got back from our glorious honeymoon in Bali. We had the best wedding day ever. Nothing went wrong and we were both very relaxed. It was such a beautiful day at fig tree and we have had so many people saying it was the best wedding ever.

Thank you so much to yourself and the whole team and please give a big thank you to kristen our day of coordinator for all her help.

We had a fairy tale wedding thanks to you 🙂

Big love

Simone and Joe PATINO

Thank you Annabel. (wedding planner)

Our day was beyond perfect and we couldn’t fault a single thing. The service has been amazing the whole way through.
Thank you for all you have done to help create our day.

Hi Maddie, (wedding planner)

A very belated thank you from us to you, Michelle and the wider Byron Bay Wedding team. (Since the wedding its been a fairly crazy time since we’ve gotten back but we are now taking a breath of air to reflect on the day and experience)

We had the most amazing time and we are so thankful to you all for helping us put together such an amazing day. Memories we will cherish for a lifetime. Speaking to our guests they had the best time ever, from all the small touches with the decorations to the kindness of the staff. Many mentioned it was the best wedding they have ever attended, from the atmosphere and energy of the day. (I agree however perhaps a bit biased) Everything went smoothly, the silent disco was a big hit and the place looked so beautiful, truly a special day. Thank you so much for playing a big part in pulling it together with us.

All the best to you,
Marty + Nicola

Hey Laura, (wedding planner)

Thanks so much for all of your efforts. Initially I questioned a wedding planner in the package hahah but boy was I wrong. You made the whole process so stress free and so many people would ask us if we had things organised etc and we were like- ahh yeahh like 6 months ago that was all booked in. All of those early phone hook ups definitely took the stress away closer to the event, so thank you for all your guidance and follow up calls!

Thank Che, Jimmy and all the staff please. They were amazing on the day, a 10 out or 10. The elite location was matched with elite service from every single staff member. The wet weather was quickly put behind us with the staff’s positive energy and service. So many of our friends even commented on how good all the staff were.

Thanks for playing such a big part in our perfect day!

Hi Maddie!! (wedding planner)

I wanted to send you an email first but needed to get a presentation done for this morning. So I’m sorry I didn’t get there!
Thank you for all of your help with our wedding preparations. We honestly couldn’t fault a thing! I think it all came together so well in the end and we could just sit back and enjoy the night without having things on our mind.
BVF was gorgeous, we just wished we could have stayed for longer. Archie also became best friends with their brown border collie and I think had more fun than anyone else.
We also can’t wait to see photos!
Thank you again for the help and guidance, our week-of and day-of coordinators were great too.

Regards,
Bronwen & JP

Hi Eydie and Soph 🙂 (wedding planners)

Thank you so so so much for your beautiful email! 💛

We literally had the BEST day of our entire lives, and we still can’t stop talking about it! Beck just sent us through our full set of photos too because she’s the quickest photographer on planet earth, so we are reliving it all over again!

I nearly exploded from excitement when I saw the alpacas!! Ben says that I cried more when I saw the alpacas than I did seeing him haha!

Byron Bay Weddings completely exceeded our expectations, and we can’t thank the two of you, Kate, Dan, Che, and the entire team enough for everything you did for us! You were both so incredible and helpful in the whole lead up to our wedding, and we are so grateful for the two of you! Kate was so kind and supportive on the week of our wedding, Che was amazing and such a legend, Dan was wonderful at the rehearsal and on the day, and all of the staff on the day were just so great! The food was INCREDIBLE – our friends and family are still telling us how amazing it was!

Thank you so so so much for everything again 💕

Julz and Ben xxxx

Hi Laura, (wedding planner)

It was magical! We both want to thank you so much for your INVALUABLE help with everything. It truly made this whole process easy and stress-free. We had an absolute ball. I was blessing your name all day as each thing fell into place!!

Big hugs,

Claire and husbo Mick ❤️❤️❤️

Hi Maddie, (wedding planner)

Thank you so much for everything, the day was absolutely perfect!

There is the saying ‘something must go wrong’ – but nothing did! Everything was planned & executed to perfection!

A special shout out to our day coordinator Dan, one of my bridesmaids was a bit stressed the morning of (she is also 8 months pregnant so understandable) Dan was so calming & helpful 😊

And of course a special thanks to yourself, it could not have been made possible without you & the BBW Team

Thanks again!
Rachel & James

Hi Maddie, (wedding planner)

Thanks so much for all of your help, and the rest of the team both behind the scenes and there on the day. And Michelle was incredible!

The day was pure magic!

And it was seamless! I felt like everything was taken care of. I never had to check anything or follow anything up. An absolute dream! Please pass on our thanks!

Thanks so much again!

Jodie

Hello everyone,

My husband and I would like to acknowledge our wedding planner Laura from Byron Bay Weddings and the entire staff at Fig Tree Restaurant for assisting with our wedding.

Firstly, Laura –
it has been an absolute pleasure working with you leading up to the big day. Through time differences and Zoom calls, Bohdi and I have very much appreciated working with you. Thank you for helping us in making the wedding day perfect for us, our personalities and for our guests. We are grateful for the wedding planning reminders and your time and effort to support us.

To Che and his incredible team at Fig Tree Restaurant –
Thank you for making our wedding day absolutely perfect, in every way possible! Originally Bohdi and I was interested in the Byron Bay Surf Club for our wedding venue, however as it did not tick all our boxes, Che took us to the Fig Tree Restaurant as an alternative. We immediately fell in love with the place and started discussing wedding details as soon as we saw the property. Thank you for providing us with Sunrise House for our accommodation, such an incredible home for myself and the girls and for our wedding night. It was wonderful to experience having Che taking our coffee orders the morning off! The entire day worked smoothly, thanks to Jimmy and the staff on the day. If there was any issues, we didn’t notice! We loved how the day flowed, with the natural movement of people from the ceremony to the pool, and then inside to the reception. Everything felt relaxed,

In general, we feel so grateful with the accommodating, service-minded and professional staff at Fig Tree Restaurant. Our guests and us have not stopped talking about how well you looked after us on the day! We could not have asked for a better venue and staff.

To Kate, Rhonda, Che, Jimmy and the Fig Tree Staff –
for going above and beyond in search of the missing bouquets. We still don’t know what happened to them. We have received the pamper present for our honeymoon days gifted from you – this was an amazing gesture, thank you so much!

We will never forget this day or stop talking about it – thank you so much! We look forward to be visiting Fig Tree Restaurant in the future!

Humble gratitude from,

June and Bohdi, Mrs. and Mr. Jay-Eggebo.

Hi Maddie! (wedding planner)

Thank you so much for all of your help, the day was absolutely perfect!!!

Dean was an incredible celebrant, even my mum wanted to leave him a glowing review. He felt like an old friend.

Sarah Archer (musician) and Dan from Party Liaison (DJ) were so great and such wonderful people.

Silvy from Mi Casa did an incredible job of the flowers, they were perfect, especially when I didn’t give her anything exact. She was also super sweet.

Dan (on the day coordinator) was so great on the day at keeping the whole thing running and there was a really lovely woman (Michelle maybe?) who was working that night who I can’t thank enough.

I was so nervous before I walked down the aisle and she came up to me and said a few things that was much appreciated.

The only thing that wasn’t great was how quickly it went! It felt like I blinked and it was all over 🥲

Thanks again, everything was perfect

❤️❤️

Hi Maddie, (wedding planner)

Thank you so much as well for such a wonderful experience planning our wedding – you made it seamless & so enjoyable!! The team taking care of us was amazing, we couldn’t fault them.

We absolutely love our pics too – Brendan is a true talent 🤍

Jack & Jane xxx

Hi Laura, (wedding planner)

Thank you!! We are still on cloud nine. The whole day was so seamless and absolutely perfect!

You did an amazing job and it was so reassuring knowing you were only a text or an email away. Especially when the last-minute stress started kicking in! We’re so grateful for all of your hard work and support.

We loved working with you and the entire team at the Fig Tree. Everyone has been so genuine, helpful and calm throughout the whole process.

We had such a lovely conversation with Che when we checked out on Sunday. The culture of Byron Bay Weddings is truly special and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to have our wedding with you!

Thank you!
Sarah & Josh

Hi Maddie, (wedding planner)

Sorry for the silence, we’ve been non stop since the day with family friends and ultimately holiday fun!

We wanted to extend the BIGGEST thank you to you ❤️😍🥰 it was just the most insanely wonderful and special day ❤️🥰😘

We’ve just loved dealing with you Maddie and you really had thought of everything! There were so many wonderful details and moments ~ everything was used and in the right place, and the cushion pack / rugs were so nice for the kids to hang out. The crazy part was we almost need sun umbrellas not the heaters!

Rhonda (on the day coordinator) was also fantastic on the day and just made everything so seamless and easy. Everything we needed we always had and the team at Frida’s Field are just so impressive.

Thank you again Maddie, we’re so pleased to have chosen Byron Bay Weddings and get such wonderful heartfelt service from you.

Catherine and Paul

Hi Annabel, (wedding planner)

So sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you.

Life has been crazy since we got married and now, we are heading into the festive seasons.

It was the best day of my life! Everyone enjoyed themselves so much that we still speak about it. We keep saying that we must re-do it again every year 😊

Have a great rest of your week 😊

Thank you,

Tiana

Eydieeeeeeee ❤ (wedding planner)

I actually don’t even know where to begin! In fact I’m tearing up just writing this email hahaha.

Thank you thank you thank you for all that you are and giving us the wedding of our absolute dreams. We’ve totally been in this bliss post wedding high for the past month and we credit you and the whole Fig Tree team for a huge portion of that euphoria. From beginning to end, it was simply the best. We really don’t have words to describe it! Every part of it was a 10 out of 10, there is nothing we could fault (shout out to Jimmy and Michelle (on the day coordinators)). We’ve had multiple guests tell us it was the best wedding they’ve been to and we genuinely know that to be the truth. Like I said, just thinking about it again as I write this email is giving me all the happy tears.

I feel like thank you doesn’t even cut it, but thank you again. We’re thinking about having our first anniversary up there so if you happen to have one of your dinner events around then, count the McNamaras in haha. This isn’t goodbye, we will most definitely be back.

Let’s do it all over again!! 💫

All our love, and thanks.

The McNamaras xx

Hi Annabel, (wedding planner)

Thanks so much! The day was absolutely perfect, thank you so much for all your assistance in the lead up and making sure everything was perfect for the day of! We wish we could go back and relive the day over again, I hope I can get back to Fig Tree as a wedding guest one day to experience it from the other side.

Thank you so much again Xx
Hilary and Andrew

Darling Laura!! (wedding planner)

THANK YOU sooo much for planning simply the best wedding day for us! We are on cloud 9! The day was even better than we had imagined and a lot of the credit goes to you! I felt so relaxed (which I didn’t think would be possible) and I managed to revel in every second of the day! Jimmy/Michelle were also superb yesterday and we just love the Figtree team! THANK YOU! Xxx

ps. I miss our 6 weekly catch ups already!

Hi Maddie, (wedding planner)

Thank you! We are so happy and thrilled with how everything turned out it was perfect from set up to service to the day running smoothly. So much better than I had envisioned. (and that was pretty amazing).

Thank you so much for your help and guidance and planning along the way. Sending lots of gratitude your way!

We also have to mention Kristen was amazing on the day, after so many guest cancellations and then fitting two back in she ensured the day ran smoothly and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Much appreciated from the both of us.

We had many guest comments saying Wedding of the Year and even Wedding of the Century!!

Thank you again, and all the best

Katie & Iain

Hi Sophie! (wedding planner)

We had the MOST magical day ever, and everything was perfect! We cannot thank you enough for your planning and all of your hard work that you put in over the last year. Our day truly exceeded all of our expectations, and all of the things we stressed about spending money on were worth every penny.

We could not have been more impressed with Fig Tree, Kate’s week of coordination, Jimmy’s day of coordination, and Che’s thoughtful gestures. We will remember our day forever and are still on cloud nine from it.

Hope you had a beautiful week!!

Kindest,
Elisabeth & Mat xx

We had the most magical time. Thank you for all your hard work, Eydie (wedding planner). The details were just exceptional.

Michelle and Jimmy (day coordinators) looked after us on the day and they were brilliant. Everyone raved over the service of all the staff and of course the amazing location.

We are so thrilled. Can’t wait to come back and spend more time eating delicious lunches at The Fig Tree.

Hey Sophie and Eydie, (wedding planners)

We just wanted to thank you guys so much for all of your help with our wedding from start to finish. We were so thrilled with how the day turned out and honestly couldn’t ask for any better!

Everyone has been raving about the day, how beautiful it was and how great Byron Bay Weddings is. If you can pass our thanks along to the on-the-day staff too, that would be awesome. They were unreal!

Thank you again!

Kindest,
Lauren & Tom

Hey Sophie, (wedding planner)

Wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for all that you and the team did for us.
It was truly the most perfect magical day. And it was all thanks to you and the amazing team!

We could not have done it without you, and we are so glad we didn’t have to.
You made everything we visioned our day to be possible. The day flowed magically and beautifully!

Going to miss our catch-ups, and wish we could do it all over again!

Thank you again miss Sophie

Much love always,

Before booking our venue – Fig Tree Restaurant, the whole planning process seemed a little overwhelming and daunting. However, once we booked and began working with Byron Bay Weddings, specifically Sophie our planner, it was clear we were in safe hands. Sophie was a pleasure to work with, Sophie was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and patient, nothing was ever a problem. Sophie made the whole planning process a dream, she guided us through every planning module, kept us on track and was there to answer all the many questions we had along the way.

BBW think of everything, even when the weather was looking like it is going to pour with rain, we were reassured and comforted by the fact they had every possible contingency plan ready to go. We couldn’t have achieved our most perfect day without them.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Thanks Eydie (wedding planner), we couldn’t be more pleased with how the day turned out. Everything was perfect and our friends and family were blown away by the beauty and professionalism of the venue and staff.

Please pass on our sincere thanks to Jimmy (on the day coordinator) – he is a superstar!

We are sad it is over but we will definitely come for a visit and have lunch or dinner in the not too distant future!

Thank you for your support and guidance, it made what can be a hard and arduous process one of ease and enjoyment.

Love Stevie and Lou xx

Hi Laura, (wedding planner)

THANK YOU SO MUCH! We are on such a high from our day, it was more perfect than we could have imagined.

You made the whole process easy and stress-free and then on the day Michelle & Jimmy were a dream to work with. I cannot tell you how much our expectations were exceeded and our guests have been raving about the food and venue also.

Thank you so so much ❤

xx

Hey Annabel, (wedding planner)

Thank you so much!

The day and the whole lead-up was magical. The Figtree certainly lived up and exceeded our expectations. Jimmy, Michele and James (the chef) were particularly incredible, they certainly understand hospitality and were such a pleasure to work with.
I think all our guests had an incredible experience. They all had amazing things to say about the venue, food and cocktails!

Thank you very much for being part of it all and keeping us in line haha. Another big thanks for hooking us up with the best seats in the house on our ‘tasting lunch’.

Thanks again
George and Megan

Hello Laura,

We want to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU!!! You were incredible throughout the whole process we really can not thank you enough.

YOU ARE THE BEST WEDDING PLANNER IN THE WORLD!

Much love,

Lillie and Jayden X

Dear Che (BBW director), Annabel (wedding planner), Kate (restaurant manager), Jimmy (day coordinator) and the rest of the team at Fig Tree that made our wedding day what it was,

Sam and I wanted to thank you for all the effort you made to not only make it feasible for us to get married at your stunning venue, but to make the day run seamlessly. The professionalism of the team filled us with confidence, and the warmth and hospitality of everybody we worked with along the way made us feel that our wedding was not just another event, but a deeply meaningful and personal occasion.

The venue itself was more beautiful than anywhere we’d dreamt of getting married – every corner of the property holds its own magic. It’s clear that the grounds have been thoughtfully designed and nurtured to look their absolute best. The food was all next level, and the cocktails were a massive hit! Our guests could not speak more highly of their experience. We got messages for days afterwards saying what a great time they’d had and what an incredible venue it was.

Once again, thank you.

Warmly,

Jody and Sam

Hi ladies,

Whilst it’s already been a couple of months now, we would like to thank you so much for all your assistance leading up to and on our wedding day. It was simply incredible, and truly was our dream day.

Each of you made everything feel so easeful every step of the way. We appreciate your patience, your organisation, your excellent advice, your positive and bubbly personalities, honestly, we could go on and on!

So many of our guests raved that ours was the best wedding they’ve been too, they loved everything about our day but often people have no idea the hard work that goes on behind the scenes to create such a magical experience. We will always remember each of you for the part you played in making this the most memorable day of our lives.

We’d also like to share a special thanks to the whole team at Fig Tree;

• the gardener who keeps the grounds so perfect, literally there’s never a petal or a leaf out of place
• the waitstaff and bar staff who graciously served us and kept up with the many cocktail orders! We’ve had multiple friends reach out for the Pisco Sours recipe!
• the chefs who prepared a divine meal for us (honestly you wouldn’t guess how many people commented on how amazing the green leaf salad was, who would have thought the simplest of dishes would be such a hit!)
• and of course, Rhonda and Jimmy. Both Rhonda and Jimmy really looked after us and we were so thankful for the calm energy they brought to the day

Warm regards,

Serene and Matt

Hi Eydie, (wedding planner)

Wow, what a day!!!

Thanks for your kind words and for the enormous amount of effort in getting us to the finish line. It was such a busy day, but one filled with warmth, memories, and so so much love. The service your team provided was exceptional and no doubt played a huge role in the impression our friends and family will remember of our day – so THANK YOU (again)!!!!!!

You guys were amazing.

Cheers,

Chris & Cat

Hey Maddie! (wedding planner)

Hi Sophie, (wedding planner)

Thank you for the well wishes. It was incredible and everything we could have hoped for.

The crew on the day/night were outstanding. We had a lot of feedback from family and friends around the quality of the food, drinks and particularly the service.

A big thanks to you and your team as well for all the support and keeping us on track along the way.
It is a day we will never forget!

Kind regards,
Emilie and Nick

We couldn’t have done it without you, thanks so much for everything you did to help us have our perfect day.

Thanks again for everything! Jimmy was great on the day

Love,
Mil & Jay x

We cannot thank everyone at BBW enough! Firstly to you Sophie (wedding planner), all of your planning and advice and reassurance leading up to the day was incredible. Meeting Che (owner BBW) the day before and going through every scenario was amazing and I was so blown away at how he was so willing to go above and beyond for us. And then Lloyd (day coordinator) on the day of was nothing short of incredible. Everyone we met and spoke to from your team are truly exceptional people and made our day the best day of our lives and exceeded all our expectations.

Thank you so much to all of you, we are so grateful. Turns out we’re grateful for the rain haha, it kept everyone together and were in love with the photos!

Hey Eydie! (wedding planner)

Wow, where to even begin! I just want to start by saying a huge THANK YOU to you and to the rest of the team at Byron Bay Weddings and Fig Tree. Thank you for all of your patience, guidance and support during the planning phase. Thanks to you, our day was everything we dreamed of and truly went off without a hitch! We loved every moment and will treasure them forever.

We are still in complete shock to be honest that we were lucky enough to have the most perfect wedding and we realize now that it wasn’t luck, it was the amazing team we had around us and all of the hard work everyone put into our wedding.

I do hope our paths cross again one day and I will certainly be recommending you to anyone getting married in Byron!

Thank you again,

Love Amy & Liam

Eydie (wedding planner),

Thank you SO much for all of your help in bringing our wedding day together! You honestly made it so special! Everything looked and went so amazingly well! Literally no hiccups at all.
The place was absolutely gorgeous!!! Thank you so much! Xxx

Hi Sihanie! (wedding planner)

It was truly the best experience and day ever, the attention to detail was second to none – and we couldn’t thank yourself and your team enough.

Thank you once again for being part of such a monumental day for us.

All the best,

Libby and Nick x

Dear Sophie (wedding planner), Che (owner Fig Tree Restaurant) and Jimmy (day coordinator),

To Che, Jimmy and the entire Byron Bay Weddings team from the bottom of our hearts we thank you. You moved mountains for us that day, going above and beyond to make the most out of some very unfortunate circumstances. Your hospitality was truly out of this world and if it weren’t for that I think our day would have had totally different outlook. Being engaged for 4 years, planning a wedding over 2 of those, postponing during covid, driving over 3000km and battling extreme torrential rains and flooding; Shaun and I were adamant that we get married under that Fig Tree like what we had envisioned for so long. Thanks to Jimmy and the whole team- they made it happen for us that day making it magical, fun and unique for all. Without hesitation the team created a beautiful ceremony and reception for us bringing our vision to life. Our guests can not stop talking about how insanely incredible everything was from the venue, the food, the flowing drinks and professional service which was nothing short of perfection.

Hi Sophie!! (wedding planner)

Thank you so much! We truly had the best day of our lives and still are on the biggest high!

We can’t thank you enough for helping bring together our dream wedding, it was absolutely perfect from start to finish! Thank you to you and Carlie for making the process so easy to follow and thank you for picking it up towards the end and making it into reality!! It has been such a great experience.

Also please pass on a big thank you to Kate, Dan and all the staff on the day. Kate in the week leading up for just being there and being supportive! She really helped ease any worries we had. Dan was amazing on the day – super chilled and we could relax knowing everything was under control. The staff on the afternoon/evening were great also. We had many compliments saying how efficient everyone was as soon as we knew the ceremony was to be inside and how attentive the wait staff were. No one went without a drink!

Truly incredible from start to finish.

The biggest thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

Lauren & Curtis xxx

Hi Eydie, (wedding planner)

Thank you  It was honestly the best day ever. We can’t thank you enough for everything you did to help us have the most perfect day!!

We are so grateful for all of your help and recommendations!! We wouldn’t have changed a thing 

Beautiful Sophie! (wedding planner)

We have no words!

THE BIGGEST thank you TO YOU!!!!

You were next level in our planning and we couldn’t be more grateful.

It really was the best day of our lives and I am so grateful!

The venue was stunning, the team was amazing, and the food was BONKERS!!!

You really are a wizard!

Looking forward to being a part of more Byron Bay Weddings in the future!

YAY

Love M xx

Sophie (wedding planner),

Thank you so much for all your help over the past 12 months – your communication and response to all of my silly questions has been incredible and has made the wedding planning process so much easier, and completely took the stress out of the day. I am so grateful for your assistance in bringing the day together, and all of our wedding dreams to life – it was honestly the best day ever 🙂

Please also pass on my thanks to Kate (Fig Tree manager), Che (Fig Tree owner) and Jimmy (day coordinator) for coordinating the wedding in the lead up to and on the day. Getting caught in rain didn’t dampen our spirits at all 🙂 and all of our guests were raving about how beautiful the venue was and that the food was the best they have ever had at a wedding! We are so happy we decided on fig tree for our wedding, it was everything we could have hoped for 🙂

Sophie (wedding planner) and Che (owner Fig Tree Restaurant),

I don’t know where to begin to thank you both for what I can only describe as the best day of our lives, you both played a huge part in making this a wonderful day for us and our family.

My family who are extremely tough critics of good food thought every dish that came out was beyond delicious! Well done Che, you are a culinary genius!

We felt very connected to the property and we are ecstatic to have our little Fig Tree at home thanks to Che.

Thanks again,

Evan and Tamara xx

Both Jason and I would like to thank you Sophie (wedding planner), from the bottom of our hearts for a truly amazing day. Everything was perfect!

And we aren’t the only ones who think it! Each time we catch up with one of our guests, the statement is the same every time, “that was the best wedding ever”.

So THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU😊

A special mention to Che and the Team at Byron Bay Wedding for such a seamless operation with amazing food and staff. Che you’re a wizard in the kitchen.

Hey Sophie, (wedding planner)

Thanks so much! We honestly had the best day ever, but like everyone says, it just went by so fast! Thank you for all your help in bringing our vision to life, the venue, the details, the food and the staff were all amazing, couldn’t fault a thing!

Thanks again xx

My partner, Lucas, and I first visited Fig Tree in 2017, and fell in love with the venue and it’s beautiful grounds, views across Byron Bay, incredible food, option to bring your own wine, and friendly staff. Fast forward to 2021 when planning our wedding, and we knew that Fig Tree was the perfect place for us. The whole wedding planning process was helped considerably by Byron Bay Weddings – they certainly thought about all of the details, some of which I hadn’t even considered! Thank you to Sophie for all of your help.

What we love about Fig Tree are the different areas which create unique ambience during the day. Under the fig tree is perfect for the ceremony, the pool area creates a relaxed ‘holiday’ vibe for cocktails and canapes, and the restaurant is just stunning with views over Byron Bay including the lighthouse and Julian Rocks. As you move around the property during the day you are struck by how beautiful it is.

We received so many compliments on the food – with guests commenting that it was the best wedding food they have ever experienced. Everything is so fresh and the ‘paddock to plate’ experience shines through. We are very into our wine, and as members of a Yarra Valley winery we could have our own wine at Fig Tree to complement the food – we loved this!

The staff at Fig Tree are simply phenomenal. Thank you to Che, Rhonda, Jimmy and Jack. You were so friendly, helpful and supportive and went out of your way to ensure we felt special leading up to and on our big day. There may be other weddings taking place while you’re on site the night before, but you wouldn’t know – the staff are a perfect mix of there when you need them, and in the wings when you don’t. A special shout to Jimmy, our on the day coordinator, who ensured that everyone at the wedding had a great time. All of the waiting staff were also so polite, friendly and fun.

Overall, Fig Tree is a beautiful venue which is brought to life by fantastic staff who create unforgettable weddings. We’d recommend Fig Tree to others in a heartbeat.

Matt and I truly had the best day ever. Everything went so smoothly, it was perfect! 🙂 All of the guests commented on how amazing the food was and that it was the best wedding they have been to. I can’t thank Sihanie enough for all of her help and guidance throughout the wedding planning process.

Hi Eydie (wedding planner),

We cannot thank you enough for helping us create our perfect wedding. My gosh I don’t even know where to begin, everything was just perfect.

The styling, the greenery ring and lights were so phenom I was OBSESSED it worked out perfectly I wanted to take them home haha The styling on the tables was just perfection with the plates and cutlery ect you really understood our vision from day one.  I’ll reach out to Mikarla too but her flowers and greenery were just absolute perfection I just can’t get over it!

Sunrise House was incredible too I am SO glad we stayed on site, Rhonda and Jimmy just made the day so stress free and it was such a lovely morning.

Thank you so much for making our day everything we had envisaged. We can’t thank you enough.

Holly and Pat xxxx

Hi beautiful Maddie!!

Thank you so much for your beautiful message after our wedding day. I remember reading it and feeling so loved, thank you!

We had the most SPECIAL day, beyond anything we could have dreamed. Everyone still talks about how amazing the venue was, the food and the amazing team of people.

Hey Sophie (wedding planner),

Our wedding was absolutely magical, all of our guests can’t stop talking about the venue, the food and atmosphere and the team and staff that were apart of our day. The staff were sooo attentive and nothing seemed to be too hard for them. They went above and beyond they were just perfect. The day ran so smoothly and everything was so effortless and natural. The styling was fantastic everything looked amazing. It was lovely seeing our vision come to life on the day.

Thank you for helping us plan our dream wedding. It was an absolute dream it was everything I hoped for and more.

Love from Sam and Jarrad x

Hi Sophie (wedding planner),

Thank you so much for all your help over the past year. You made what can be an overwhelming experience such an easy & exciting time. I got comments frequently on how relaxed I seemed and that is really a tribute to you and the team at Byron Bay weddings. The process was seamless, easy, fun and personable. Thank god we had you to make sure everything was checked off and locked in! On the day Jimmy was epic. We appreciated him introducing himself to us on our Sunday lunch. It was a tough day with the weather and the way the entire team stepped it up was so impressive and appreciated. The day wouldn’t have flowed so perfectly without them! We will always remember this time in our life. Thank you again!!

Maddie (Wedding Planner) did a fantastic job leading up to the wedding, ensuring every detail was meticulously planned and that we hadn’t forgotten anything. She really understood the vibe we were going for and brought it to life. Her suggestions and advice were invaluable.

Jimmy and Kristen (Day Coordinators) couldn’t have done a better job on the day. There was severe rain and flooding on the weekend of our wedding, but we were definitely in safe hands. Both Jimmy and Kristen are true professionals, nothing was an issue and it was so nice to be able to relax, enjoy the day and not worry about a thing as they had it covered. Every staff member was so accommodating and really took care of our guests. Their passion for what they do and expertise are really evident. Even the day after our wedding when it was raining torrentially, the team had no problem with helping us pack up our car.

I’m a bit of a foodie so food was super important to me for our wedding. The food was absolutely amazing, the feedback from our guests was that it was the best wedding food they have ever had. The portions were huge and everyone loved that it wasn’t typical “wedding food” – the grilled prawns and watermelon salad were crowd favourites.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful – it has such an intimate, elegant feel to it. The rebuild turned out better than we ever imagined.

It was honestly the best day of our lives and we wouldn’t change a thing. We would absolutely recommend the Fig Tree venue, Fig Tree Catering, and Byron Bay Weddings to anyone. We really hope one of our friends has a wedding at Fig Tree so we can experience it all again!

Byron Bay wedding were so well organised and supportive. They had a huge array of support suppliers that responded so well. They are a truly professional organisation that will make your day perfect! Thanks to the whole team!

Thank you so much to Maddie (Wedding Planner) for all of her help over the last 12 months or so. We had an amazing day and it was truly down to the seamless coordination and great staff.

We just wanted to thank you to Sihanie (Wedding Planner) and Kate (Manager) for all of your help planning our wedding! We had the BEST day and it was everything we could have asked for and more; we couldn’t have done it without you.

Just wanted to say thanks to Carlie (Wedding Planner) for all her help organising our wedding. We had the best day. We were so happy with everything and absolutely loved the venue.

We really don’t know where to begin and how to express how grateful we are for everything Maddie (Wedding Planner), Sarah (Day Coordinator) and the Byron Bay Weddings team did to make our day perfect. Being forced to make the decision to postpone our wedding last year was shattering but we couldn’t imagine having to make that call without the support of the team at Byron Bay Weddings; we will be eternally grateful. We’d also like to extend our sincerest thanks to Che for taking time out to meet with us virtually during such a disruptive time for his business, again he only put our mind at ease, reassuring us that the team had all bases covered! We will be your biggest advocate and I know that everyone who attended our wedding came away amazed by what was delivered.

Thank you so much to Carlie (Wedding Planner) for being such a special part of the best day of our lives. You and the team at Byron Bay Weddings were amazing. Big shout out to Kate (Manager) & Kiel (Day Coordinator) who were amazing!

We just wanted to say a massive thank you to Sihanie (Wedding Planner) for all she did to make our day perfect! It all came together just as we planned and every detail was perfect! The venue looked beautiful, the wine and food were absolutely delicious, Andrew (Celebrant) was outstanding and Dan’s (DJ) tunes were awesome, not to forget the Byron Bay Weddings team, they were absolutely outstanding during the whole day & night, their service was amazing, and everyone commented on how awesome the day was and how friendly and lovely the team were so please pass our thank-you on.

Thank you so much Sophie and to Byron Bay Weddings for helping make our day so magical.

Hi Nicole, Che, Carmen and supporting teams of our A&D wedding

Thank you; we are ever so grateful that you played an integral part of our union of love. A day that was filled with joy, happiness and emotional loving energy.

Che, the food and service were impeccable, unforgettable, friends and family still talk of how delicious all the food was from the canapés, feasting mains and desserts. Not to mention the pig on a spit, that was off the charts.

Nicole and Carmen; I’m speechless, what an incredible experience and utterly perfect day… and there is perfect… we nailed it! The design of the day, the details, the music, the piano, lights… we and everyone else has been left in awe. Every detail played a special role in our love, our heritage, complementing our energy. Absolute magic and Carmen, the day was seamless you kept the energy alive on the day and nurtured our love bubble. I will never forget how you looked after me on the day.

To this day we are still beaming that we are married and look for every opportunity to call each other husband and wife.
May our video be a memory of an incredible day, a reflection of your efforts, we will never forget and all thanks to you and everyone involved.

All our love and gratitude,
Alicia and Doug xoxo

Byron Bay Weddings Team,

We cannot thank the entire team at Byron Bay Weddings and Fig Tree Restaurant enough for how absolutely amazing our wedding day was. Sihanie was the most amazing wedding planner to work with, nothing was ever too much trouble and the staff at Fig Tree went over and above on the day to ensure every single guest was happy, fed and having a ball. We have received so many compliments on how beautiful the venue was and how amazing all the staff were. Again, a huge thank you for making our wedding day the fairy tale wedding we always dreamt of, you were all such a pleasure to work with.

Thank you again,

Mr & Mrs Stuart xx

Thanks, Sophie for guiding us through it all. And a HUGE thanks to Marty for being an absolute miracle worker on the day. He was everywhere you needed him and worked masterfully with the team to make the day possible and everything we had imagined.

We’re settling back into the groove of things now and it feels a bit strange to not be expecting a check-in call from you anymore!

Best regards,

Andy & Simone

We are still on such a high from the whole weekend!

Our wedding was absolute perfection and more. We cannot thank you and the team enough for everything you did for us. Not just with coordination over the months and managing everything over the two days, but approaching our wedding with so much love and warmth and excitement.

It makes such a difference knowing you all absolutely love doing what you do.

Every single member of the team at Fig Tree have been so lovely and accommodating to us which meant that the only thing we had to concern ourselves with on the day was to enjoy ourselves and feel all the love surrounding us on our incredibly special day.

We can’t wait to come back for a little monthiversary dinner sometime soon and hug you all again.

Thanks for everything Sihanie,

Lots of love,

Eloise & Jeremy

Hey Sophie,

Wow, what a day!

Firstly, I can’t thank you enough for helping me organise the wedding of my dreams! You were so easy to work with and helped me so much! Couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner!

The venue was just amazing and everything was so perfect.

From meeting Katie the day before and then Sarah on the day, it was just fantastic! She was so amazing and all the staff were just as amazing as well! The day went so smooth and I didn’t have to stress about anything. I knew I was in good hands! I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people!

I had the wedding of my dreams and I can’t thank each and every one of you guys enough, please pass this on to those involved.

I would recommend the Fig Tree and Byron Bay Weddings to everyone! The food was sensational and everybody commented on how good the day ran!

IT WAS JUST PERFECT! So, so, so happy!

Thanks again,

Love always Mr and Mrs Hart

Sihanie and the BBW team,

Firstly, I just want to thank you for all your advice, hints and tips, when it came to the planning and selection of EVERYTHING for our wedding day. And thank you for answering all my many, many enquiries, and helping me through the process when we had to make some unexpected changes. I know I couldn’t have done it without you!

Thank you for helping to create our dream wedding! It really was the best day! You truly have selected and created such a talented and passionate tribe of professionals and should be proud of the high standards and exceptional service they provide! Almost every single vendor exceeded expectations!

Every little detail was just what we imagined. I know its cheesy, and I’m sure every couple say it, but it really was the most perfect day, and thank you all for the part you played in making it that way!

Kind regards,

Mr + Mrs Patterson

Hi Sophie,

On behalf of Brenton and I, I just wanted to say thank you so much for helping organise our wedding and make our day so special!

We had the most amazing day, it was so much more than we could have ever picture. The way everything came together and how the venue looked was absolutely stunning and more!

Everything just flowed from start to finish and we all felt so relaxed. All of our guests and family had the most amazing day and complemented absolutely everything!  So, thank you and all the team for putting everything together and helping us we appreciate everything you all did for us!! 🙂

Kind regards,

Natasha xx

Mitch and I cannot thank you and the team enough. It was the absolute best day of our lives, we both went into it thinking being the bride and groom we wouldn’t get to enjoy the day as much as our guests but I can definitely say it’s the most fun we’ve ever had.

The accommodation was insane, the styling of the venue, the staff, the service – I can go on and on. They say your wedding day is one of the best days of your life and our day was just amazing.

We want to say a massive thank you to Katie and the little pocket rocket Chris. Chris was amazing on the night she made everything so breezy, always ensured the drinks where flowing and that Mitch and I were having fun. The chefs, oh my goodness! The food was to die for, I’m literally still dreaming about that lamb! The guests and ourselves were saying it was the best wedding food we’ve all ever had. We both can’t believe the amount of food supplied!

And a massive thank you to you, Sihanie! Thank you for everything you have done for us over the past year and a half and making it the easiest experience. You and the team at Byron Bay Weddings are all next level. So friendly, happy and amazing at what you all do!

Mitch and I are already looking forward to celebrating our first wedding anniversary under the fig tree next year!

So, so, so much love

From the new Mr & Mrs Munday xxx

Nathan and I had the most amazing day and we’re so grateful to you and the team for everything that you did for us to bring it all together. The planning process was amazing, the relocation was handled well and the on-the-day service from the team was perfect. We were so well looked after and everyone we met from the Fig Tree and Byron Bay Weddings teams were so lovely and professional.

Thanks again Sihanie,

Andrea & Nathan
