wedding of Renae and Wade

The First “I Do” at Bollerang House. A South Coast Wedding to Remember

Some moments stay with you forever and for us hosting our very first wedding at Bollerang House is one of those milestones. On 25 October 2025, local sweethearts Renae and Wade became the first couple to say “I do” at our boutique wedding venue in Wandandian, just 15 minutes from Jervis Bay. It was the perfect start to our story as a South Coast wedding venue and we could not be more excited to share it with you.

A local Shoalhaven Love Story

Renae and Wade are the kind of couple who radiate warmth relaxed down to earth and deeply in love. They wanted a wedding that felt beautiful but not fussy, filled with laughter, music and incredible food. With 140 guests gathered under the pines their day was everything they dreamed of. They had the perfect crew to make the day feel full, warm and joyfully loud in all the right ways.

Why Bollerang House Was the Perfect Setting

If you are searching for wedding venues on the South Coast NSW you will know how much the setting matters. For Renae and Wade nature delivered in full force with blue skies golden light and a gentle breeze through the pines. Their ceremony beneath our fragrant trees felt like a scene from a movie romantic intimate and authentically Shoalhaven.

Guests arrived to the scent of pine soft acoustic music drifting through the trees and that unmistakable energy of “something big is happening today.” It is moments like these that make South Coast weddings so special.

Seamless Planning Stress Free Celebration

From the first guest arrival to the last dance the day flowed effortlessly. Our dedicated event coordinator handled every detail behind the scenes so Renae and Wade could stay present and soak up every moment. Here is what they had to say:

“We had the most amazing wedding at Bollerang House. From start to finish, our coordinator Jess was absolutely incredible, always there to help and make sure everything went smoothly. No request was too big or small! The venue was absolutely stunning and the food was out of this world our guests are still raving about it! A massive thank you to the Bollerang House team for making our day so special and unforgettable!”

That is exactly what we aim for stress free weddings where couples can truly enjoy their day.

Food That Guests Cannot Stop Talking About

When it comes to wedding catering on the South Coast Apple Tree Catering is legendary and they delivered in spades. From shared mains to decadent desserts every plate was a celebration of local flavours. Weeks later guests were still saying:

“This is the best wedding food I have ever had.”

Great food happy guests and a full dance floor that is the recipe for an unforgettable wedding.

The Soundtrack to a Perfect Day

Live music brings a wedding to life and Dan from @grooveunion.au nailed the vibe with relaxed acoustic sets during the ceremony and upbeat tunes when it was time to party. There is something magical about music drifting through the property as the sun sets it is pure South Coast wedding magic.
