23.01.2022 #lovecanwait #loveisforlife #marriageisforlife Update from Val and Andrew, Owners of The Wedding Shed @ Kookaburra Hideaway regarding the Corona Virus as of 23rd March 2020....Continue reading

22.01.2022 Good morning from The Hunter Valley..Not an alien invasion...7 hot air balloons above our house :)

21.01.2022 This is what makes it all worthwhile at Kookaburra Hideaway Thankyou Danielle and Sam and their Mums and Dads, we loved every bit of your Wedding. Such fun and thanks @SueTaylor and the EWWAT team...

20.01.2022 If you are looking for a fabulous wedding venue come and see our great new venue on 28th April 2019 between 11am and 2pm. Packages start at just $1895 :)

20.01.2022 EWWAT has always provided wedding packages based on consumer demand. The average wedding spend in Australia is $65,000 and its no wonder we are so popular with being able to offer a wedding of that amount for 3 or 4 times less! But there is a new gap growing in the marketplace for those couples who dont want a registry office wedding or dont want a backyard wedding but would still love a beautiful and simple no fuss wedding for a low price. Whether you are building or buy...ing a new home, starting a family, saving for a new car or holiday or maybe just dont want to spend tens of thousands on a wedding day....whatever the reason we are here to help. Just go through the list on the flyer and email me with what you would like in your package at [email protected] and Ill do my best to pull together a package just perfect for you. These packages are only available Monday to Thursday as you can imagine how heavily booked we are on weekends all year round. I look forward to creating your dream day. Sue

20.01.2022 Matt and I just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU.. Every aspect of our Wedding day at The Wedding Shed @ Kookaburra Hideaway was more than perfect. Val, Andrew and your whole team were incredible.. they took care of every detail leaving us with nothing to do except enjoy the day. Our guests could not stop talking about the how incredible the venue was, and the food OMG it was amazing (Im still getting messages about it) and my flowers were the most beautiful flowers ever! ...You made this whole process so stress free! We only wish we could go back and individually thank everyone who made it possible. Thank you! The new Mr & Mrs Y .

20.01.2022 Congratulations Emma and Matt Another fantastic wedding at The Wedding Shed @ Kookaburra Hideaway ... #yourfantasticwedding... #huntervalleyweddings Yourfantasticwedding.com

14.01.2022 HOW ABOUT SOME GOOD NEWS!? China has closed down its last coronavirus hospital. Not enough new cases to support them. Doctors in India have been successful in treating Coronavirus. Combination of drugs used: Lopinavir, Retonovir, Oseltamivir along with Chlorphenamine. They are going to suggest same medicine, globally.... Researchers of the Erasmus Medical Center claim to have found an antibody against coronavirus. A 103-year-old Chinese grandmother has made a full recovery from COVID-19 after being treated for 6 days in Wuhan, China. Apple reopens all 42 china stores. Cleveland Clinic developed a COVID-19 test that gives results in hours, not days. Good news from South Korea, where the number of new cases is declining. Italy is hit hard, experts say, only because they have the oldest population in Europe. Scientists in Israel likely to announce the development of a coronavirus vaccine. 3 Maryland coronavirus patients fully recovered; able to return to everyday life. A network of Canadian scientists are making excellent progress in Covid-19 research. A San Diego biotech company is developing a Covid-19 vaccine in collaboration with Duke University and National University of Singapore. Tulsa Countys first positive COVID-19 case has recovered. This individual has had two negative tests, which is the indicator of recovery. All 7 patients who were getting treated for at Safdarjung hospital in New Delhi have recovered. Plasma from newly recovered patients from Covid -19 can treat others infected by Covid-19. Above credit to: Michael Mathis So its not ALL bad news friends. Lets care for each other and stay focused on safety of those most vulnerable while continuing to make the best of our days. This too shall pass! I challenge you to spread the good news!

04.01.2022 We recently had a query as to whether we need a Liquor Licence for consumption of Alcohol at The Wedding Shed , Kookaburra Hideaway. We already knew the answer, but just as well to check in case of any changes. As confirmed by the NSW Liquor Licencing and Gaming Board, we do not need to have a Liquor Licence because we dont actually sell alcohol... ... The great news is that we are a BYO Alcohol venue and we do not charge corkage or any fee associated with your alcohol. So this will help keep the cost of your wedding down :) However alcohol can only be served by RSA (Responsible Service of Alcohol) trained staff and we strictly adhere to RSA standards to keep everyone safe.

Inside $289, Oceanview $399, Balcony $599, Mini-Suite $799, Suite $2049 EUROPE: Its the ancient land of legends and kings, where empires were built and destroyed. Dreams and ideas came to fruition here, on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and in the grand halls of St. Petersburg. Today, the call of Europe is stronger than ever, with its brilliant mosaic of bygone eras and modern - day wonders.Stand at the base of the temple of Poseidon and its as if you were at the threshold of modern civilization. But look beyond the hilltops of Athens, to the intricate canals of Venice or the gothic cathedrals of Spain; gaze northward to the shores of Normandy or the cliffs of Edinburgh; reach for the great Viking waters of Norway or the virgin tundra of North Cape. Only then will you begin to comprehend the scope and history of this most wondrous continent.

The Mexican Riviera is filled with rich culture, bright flavors, scenic vistas, and most definitely, fun in the sun. The La Quebrada cliff divers of Acapulco will leave you amazed at their daredevil flying feats. The cobbled streets of Puerto Vallartas Malcon are ideal for a relaxing stroll. And the deep - water lagoons, coconut groves and laid - back attitude of Zihuatanejo provide a delightful taste of Old Mexico. Dont forget Mazatlans long sandy beaches and the chance to spot humpback and gray whales off Cabo San Lucas. There is so much to do and see on the Riviera. By day, swim, fish, shop or soak up the local culture. By night, savor the bold and fresh flavors of the region, like handmade tortillas and fresh guacamole, then pick up some new steps, dancing the night away to a salsa beat.

RIVER CRUISES A river cruise is one of the best ways to see Europe, Russia, China, or Inland America up close and in depth. Explore the best destinations in the world from an intimate perspective, spending your time being there, not getting there. Unlike a bus tour where you spend more time on the bus than actually seeing the country, River Cruises offer you fine food, great service and scenic cruising along some of the worlds great rivers. River Cruises visit at least one port a day on virtually every itinerary and you can explore small villages off the beaten path that are inaccessible via an ocean cruise. Docking in the heart of town, youll have more time to see the cities, not just travel to the cities. Youll experience ever - changing riverside scenery as well as local nightlife when your ship overnights in port.
