Looking for that perfect waterfront venue for your wedding, but need to stay on budget? The River Shack is a picturesque location on the riverfront at Yamba, with acreage and lawned areas to host the most beautiful wedding.
The property comprises a self-contained cabin and exclusive use of the surrounding grounds with absolute privacy. With water views, gardens and rustic charm, it is the perfect ceremony location for your special occasion.
There is also a private jetty and boatramp with 100-acres of river frontage, and an exclusive camp site if guests would like to stay. Or we are just mintues from Yamba's CBD where there is plenty of accommodation to house travelling friends.
The River Shack has existing outdoor BBQ tables for seating, but we recommend hiring tables and chairs if you'd prefer a seated ceremony. There is plenty of room for a marquee to provide extra weather protection and peace of mind.
So many possibilities for every bride and budget. A stunning exclusive waterfront location, without the five-star price. Perfect!
