AWARDED QUEENSLAND'S BEST WEDDING CATERER 2018

The historic
Gabbinbar
Homestead

For 148 years, the historic Gabbinbar Homestead was a private residence used by the Governors of Queensland as their Summer Resort. This charming Homestead was renowned for its beautiful gardens, peaceful ambience and warm hospitality.

In 2012, we officially opened the Homestead with a passion to do weddings differently. Instead of a function venue, we offer a magnificent estate as your exclusive home for your special day - complete with award winning food, exceptional service and breathtaking ceremony and reception locations.

We genuinely believe every wedding should be unique and we guarantee a personal wedding planning experience. As you discover more about our special location, we hope you fall in love with Gabbinbar Homestead just as much as we have.

AUTUMN 2019

James and Brooke’s love story started with a little help from cupid the matchmaker. Their first date was an arranged date at a local bar in Toowoomba, Muller Bros.
