www.eastgippslandweddingexpo.com.au | EAST GIPPSLAND WEDDING PLANNER 2017 61 For a relaxing, intimate wedding look no further than the Dargo River Inn. Your hosts, Marissa and Christian Barrett, take pleasure in offering a magnificent High Country location for your wedding day, with a stunning mountain backdrop, breathtaking views of the Dargo countryside and everything you need all in the one place. It is the ideal location for a relaxing casual ceremony and reception or a formal sit down meal under a beautifully decorated marquee – they’ll work with you whichever way you decide to go. “We are very flexible and happy to discuss exactly what you are after, and tailor a package especially for you,” Marissa said. “Most couples, when it comes down to it, are looking to reduce the stresses in a wedding, and we can help them do that. “We try to be as flexible as possible and don't lock couples into anything. People are often surprised about just how flexible we are. “The menu is customisable and we work with the couple to see what kind of food they’re after for their wedding. “We understand we’re a little off the beaten track, so we have to be able to offer what couples are after.” BREATHTAKING MOUNTAIN BACKDROP What they have in bucket loads is country charm in a relaxed and affordable environment. For a formal seated reception around 50 guests can be catered for in the inn’s cosy dining room. Alternatively gatherings of 100 plus can enjoy their sit down meal in beautifully decorated marquees. The inn can cater for a variety of different meal options and within a varied budget, depending on the style of event that you are after. From finger food, to buffet to sit down formal dining, they do it all. Dance the night away on the dance floor, toast the bride and groom from the stage, stay cosy by the fire pots or just enjoy a celebratory wine or beer on the grass. Perfect for the big wedding day, the Dargo River Inn is also the ideal venue for the initial celebrations with the engagement party. Or why not enjoy a hen’s or buck’s weekend in Dargo and make the Dargo River Inn your base. Accommodating your guests is a breeze with the inn’s five fully self-contained on-site cabins, with beds for up to 45 people. On top of that the inn has about three acres of camping land with onsite toilet and showers. There are also other accommodation options within walking distance of the inn, or just a five-minute drive away.
