The Haven

Planning your wedding at The Haven in Emu Park means choosing an award-winning coastal retreat that combines natural beauty with expert facilities. Spread across more than four hectares of beautifully maintained grounds, this venue offers stunning, uninterrupted views of the Capricorn Coast and the Keppel Islands—perfect for creating unforgettable memories on your special day.

Ceremony and Reception Spaces

Whether you dream of a beachside ceremony or a scenic outdoor service, The Haven has you covered. You can say “I do” with private access to the pristine Haven Beach, offering a serene seaside setting. Alternatively, the White Haven Ceremony Lawn, perched above the main venue, provides breathtaking panoramic views of the coastline for a truly magical backdrop.

When it’s time to celebrate, choose from two beautifully kept lawn areas ideal for open-air receptions under the stars. If you prefer indoor options, the venue features versatile function rooms—a dining room with stunning ocean views and a conference room seating 60 to 100 guests—both opening onto spacious verandas. This flexibility means you can tailor your wedding to fit your style and budget perfectly.

Catering and Bar

The Haven supports your catering needs with a fully equipped commercial kitchen available for your chosen caterers. One standout feature is the BYO (Bring Your Own) alcohol policy, giving you the freedom to select the wines, beers, and spirits that suit your taste and budget. This personal touch helps make your celebration truly yours.

Hosting family and friends is easy with The Haven’s extensive onsite accommodation, which can house up to 75 guests. Options range from cozy one-bedroom beachfront cottages to spacious five-bedroom houses and a 17-room lodge.
