Weddings/Parties, anything at Ballina Beach Village
Get married on the beach, then stroll 4 minutes back to the wedding reception venue, and stroll back to your cabin, caravan or campsite at the end of the night.
There are enough sites and cabins for the bride and groom’s family to spread out right accross the site. Ballina Beach Village is the ideal wedding venue. If you’re lucky you might spot a dolphin or a whale as the ceremony takes place. The Ballina Beach Village can cater in its cafe area, and there is space for marquees. Next morning continue the party with a swim and a relaxed get together. Specialist bridal catering can be arranged. Talk to the friendly staff at Ballina Beach Village about a wedding ceremony that’s simple but lovely.
