Hidden away in a stunning corner of Toowoomba, Gabbinbar is a Queensland wedding venue that has borne witness to the beginning of countless love stories. Couples are invited to marry, celebrate, and honour their love here - amidst the rich history, ethereal gardens, and graceful homestead.

It is only when you visit Gabbinbar that you feel the magic of what it has always been. During the 19th century, Gabbinbar served as the summer residence for Queensland’s Governors. They would host gatherings and celebrate life's most treasured moments at Gabbinbar. From lavish balls to intimate weddings and Christmas parties, the estate became a setting for unforgettable occasions, where family, friends, and dignitaries came together to revel in the joy of both grand and intimate celebrations.

Today, the indelible magic of the past remains. It is a rich memory to which the Gabbinbar team's hospitality and craftsmanship pay tribute to.
