There’s something timeless about summer on the Sunshine Coast — golden afternoons, warm coastal breezes, and those dreamy twilight hours that seem to linger just a little longer. More and more couples, especially from Brisbane, are rediscovering the magic of a summer wedding in the hinterland, and venues like Yandina Station are leading the way.
The Sunshine Coast Hinterland: A Summer Wedding Destination Worth Escaping To
Only 90 minutes from Brisbane, Yandina Station offers a secluded and luxurious alternative to city weddings. Nestled between the mountains and the coast, this heritage venue combines rustic charm with open-air elegance — perfect for couples seeking a relaxed yet unforgettable experience. The iconic view of Mount Coolum, and Mt Ninderry framed by golden light and clear skies, sets the tone for a stunning summer celebration.
Longer Days, Romantic Nights
One of the biggest draws of a summer wedding is the extended daylight. At Yandina Station, this means more time for those unforgettable moments — a relaxed afternoon ceremony, golden hour photos across the paddocks, and a seamless transition into an evening of celebration under the stars. The warm summer air creates the perfect atmosphere for music, mingling, and memories that last a lifetime.
