We were very impressed with Raffertys Resort. We booked our Ceremony, reception and accommodation there. Lisa, our wedding coordinator was very helpful and readily met our needs. We had a beautiful wedding day and our guests loved it.

The most stunning venue for our wedding day!! We could not have asked for a more picturesque place to have had our wedding. We had both our ceremony and reception at Raffertys and we could not be happier. Our ceremony was held overlooking the beautiful Lake Macquarie where we then had our photos taken along the waterfront with the most amazing sunset as the backdrop. The reception was then held onsite as well with sunset views from the function area and the most magical lighting above. We had a cocktail style wedding with canapes being served throughout the evening and the food options were a hit with everyone. We had a pretty eclectic range of dietary requirements and they were able to work with us to accommodate all our guests. I don't think we could have picked a more perfect location for our special day!! Thank you Raffertys Resort!!
