FAQ

  • Are you getting married at a venue or is it just one big group accomodation?

    We’re getting married at The Sun Ranch, a “boutique micro resort” according to their website (very fancy sounding, but we promise it’s super laid back.) It can sleep up to 40 people (not including small babies). When we were planning our wedding, the most important thing for us was finding a place big enough to fit everyone (or almost everyone) we love in one spot.

  • Will everyone at your wedding be staying at The Sun Ranch?

    That’s the aim! However, we will only know if we’ll have enough room once everyone has RSVP’ed (we have to do a lot of room maths) so please get that done ASAP if you’d be so kind! We’ve invited roughly about the amount of people that the venue fits, so with some luck and good planning, we should be able to have everyone we love in one place, which would be so fun.

  • What did you mean by “four days of festivities”?

    Basically, every wedding we’ve ever been to (even ones lasting a whole weekend) have just felt too damn short! They’ve been so much fun but sadly feel like they’re over before they’ve barely begun. To remedy that, we thought we would do a four day ho down with all our best buddies and family in order to maximise time with the people we love the best. Our wedding extravaganza will begin at check in (3pm on Thursday the 24th of September) and go until check out (10am Sunday the 27th), with lots to do in between!

  • Can I stay at The Sun Ranch for longer/shorter than the four days?

    Of course! We understand everyone might not be able to spend the full four days with us at The Ranch (although we promise to make it well worth the while if you can!) If you can only come to the day of our wedding, please let us know as we might be able to free up a room for someone else, and if you’d like to stay an extra day or two, please let us know and we can arrange you to book this through the Ranch directly.

  • We read the invite, but... what exactly is that dress code about?!

    In short - we honestly don’t care what you wear as long as you’re happy and comfortable. If that’s in a tuxedo - great! If that in jeans and a t-shirt, fantastic! Other than Paul’s strict “No Furries” Rule, anything goes. We basically thought it would be more fun to have no rules (you can even wear white if you want!) so that way everyone could just come in their happiest states of being. We hope that you find a way to reflect that in your fit and can’t wait to see your beautiful interpretations of that!

  • Are children welcome?

    Of course, but also feel free to leave them with mum and dad/the babysitter/let them fend for themselves if you really wanna kick back and relax. While The Sun Ranch is a child friendly venue, they do have strict limits on the number of children allowed on the property at one time (if they are under 12.) They do in some cases require a child minder/babysitter to be present, so please let us know if you’re thinking of bringing the kids along and we will figure out a plan.

  • What kind of stuff does The Sun Ranch have?

    Great question! The Sun Ranch has a tonne of great amenities including:

    - A 25 metre (82 foot for the Americans) pool
    - An ice bath and woodfire floating sauna on the dam
    - A badminton court
    - A fire pit
    - Two bars, one in The Rambler Long House and one by the pool!
    - Multiple spaces to hang out, including The Lair, The Whiskey Lounge, The Cowboy Bar, Mellow Fields, and The Field House.

  • Are there any activities I can do at the Ranch other than just laying by the pool binge drinking?

    There sure are! Please see our Extras page for more details on this. In a nutshell though, the extras include:

    - Horse rides (and Equine Therapy)
    - Lucky Star Rituals and Psychic / Astrology / Tarot Readings
    - Massages and Facials
    - Tea ceremonies

  • I think I want to stay offsite at some point - do you have any accomodation suggestions?

    We certainly do! Please have a look at our accomodations page for more info.

But I still have questions…

We hear you - please stand by for an information booklet coming your way that will go into a disgusting amount of detail about in the ins and outs of the entire wedding that we’ll send to the gang soon!
