Congratulations on your engagement!
We are delighted you are considering Marybrooke Manor
for your special day.
Marybrooke is nestled on the edge of the majestic
Sherbrooke Forest in the Dandenong Ranges. The
magnificent National Trust listed reception centre
and guesthouse is the perfect one-stop destination
for your boutique wedding ceremony & reception
for up to 110 guests.
Built in 1940, Marybrooke began as the grandest
guesthouse in a chain of six guesthouses all using
the pre-fix “Mary” designed and built by Eric Dowdle
between 1927 and 1940. It is registered as a socially,
historically and architecturally significant property.
Over recent years Marybrooke has undergone
extensive renovations to restore and reinstate the
building to reflect it’s original charm and elegance.

With a restaurant, two function rooms and an
indoor wedding ceremony area, Marybrooke also
offers 20 boutique four star accommodation suites.
For ceremonies we provide a picturesque outdoor
garden gazebo with white Americana chairs,
red aisle carpet runner and signing table with
linen. Alternatively, our indoor ceremony area
is available – and it’s always available as a wet
weather option. It has large windows and a
magnificent garden outlook.
We offer a flexible range of all-inclusive ceremony
& reception packages tailored to your individual
needs. These include Dining, Shared Platter,
Grazing and Garden Party Packages.
We also offer a Boutique Package (see page 20)
specifically designed for couples wanting a smaller
wedding on Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday. This
package is also available for any number of guests
on any day for couples who want to be married
within three months of booking.
Each has an all inclusive price per adult but the
minimum spend requirement varies by day of the
week and season, meaning if you have a smaller
number of people you want to invite you can make
up the minimum spend by including additional
items. This enables us to truly design a package to
suit your specific needs while avoiding the need
for you to invite extra guests.
With spectacular garden views, our reception
room will perfectly reflect your elegant style.
Predinner drinks and canapés can be provided
in the wine garden and on the verandah with the
Manor providing a magnificent back drop. PJ’s
Restaurant & Bar is right next door to the dining
room and is always available for predinners as a
wet weather option.
With 20 recently refurbished four star
accommodation suites able to sleep over
fifty people, we can also cater for your guests’
accommodation needs. Breakfast is included in
our room rates, and all rooms are located within
the Manor.
Our ‘boys’ zone’, the Green Haven Cottage, is only
300 meters away from Marybrooke and sleeps up
to eight people. With a billiard table, BBQ and
large deck it is an ideal area for the groom to spend
the night before their wedding, and is a great

Minimum spend requirements*
Whichever Package you choose*, there is a minimum spend that you need to pay which varies according
to your preferred month of the year and day of the week, as follows.
Monday to
Month Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday
PEAK: March, April, $8,000 $10,000 $12,000 $10,000
October & November
SHOULDER: January, February, $8,000 $9,500 $11,000 $9,500
May, September & December
OFF-PEAK: June, July & August $8,000 $9,000 $10,000 $9,000
If you have extra guests you can pay for them to attend, although note the maximum number of guests we can
accommodate is 110. If you have fewer guests you can reach the minimum spend by including additional
items listed as Optional Extras on the following pages, but note accommodation bookings cannot be used
to help reach your minimum spend. This means you do not have to pay for a minimum number of guests.
Rather you can design your package by adding in extra items.
For example, if you wanted the Sherbrooke Package at $130 per adult on a Friday night in September
and had 68 adults (including yourself ) the cost would be $8,840. This is $660 below the minimum spend
requirement of $9,500. However, you can spend that amount on any of the optional inclusions listed on
pages 8 – 10. For example, $250 to use our bridal lounge to get ready in prior to your ceremony, $150 for
the fairy light curtain wall, and a $260 bar tab for your bridal party.
* The minimum spend requirement for the Boutique Package is that you must pay for at least 30 adults
(inc. yourselves)
