escape to the country

Welcome to Pioneer Country

We are your exclusively private wedding venue – nestled on the glorious Northern Rivers amongst 200 acres of rolling hills, lush farmland and featuring picturesque ocean views as the idyllic backdrop for your country wedding – where you and your guests will be given our undivided attention and your only task will be… to savour every moment of your big day.

As a fifth generation, working cattle property, Pioneer Country offers everything you need in one convenient place – from our romantic plantation style chapel and stunning outdoor ceremony locations, to live music and our charming barn-style restaurant (which comfortably seats 220 people, is licensed until midnight and boasts a full commercial kitchen) – making us well equipped to bring your personalised hinterland wedding to life.

Included in all our affordable wedding packages are the services of our experienced in-house planner, so you can feel 100% confident knowing that every detail will be taken care of, any last-minute emergency will be handled and that your day is organised, relaxed and stress free.

As a private property, perfectly situated just 10 minutes from The Gold Coast Airport (less than a $20 Uber ride from world class accommodation in nearby Coolangatta) and a mere 3km from the M1 motorway – with direct routes to Byron Bay, The Gold Coast and Brisbane – Pioneer Country also offers guests unlimited free parking (day and overnight – for those wanting to relax and not drive home); making us undeniably, the perfect venue for locals and interstate visitors alike.

Why wait! Call us now to arrange an inspection tour and to see just how effortlessly we can bring all your plans to life. Together we will create a unique and beautiful day to be remembered forever.
