Tips for Planning Your Crowne Plaza Surfers Paradise Wedding

1. Book Early

As one of the Gold Coast’s most sought-after venues, dates fill up fast, especially during peak seasons (spring and summer). Aim to secure your booking 12-18 months in advance.

2. Consider a Sunset Ceremony

With its west-facing views, Crowne Plaza is perfect for golden-hour weddings. A sunset ceremony creates magical lighting for photos and a romantic atmosphere.

3. Personalise Your Décor

While the venue is stunning on its own, adding personal touches (e.g., floral arches, fairy lights, or themed centrepieces) can make it even more special.

4. Plan Guest Transport

If you have guests staying at different locations, consider organising shuttle buses to ensure everyone arrives on time.
