Overall
9.5
For me, Gabbinbar is hands down the best wedding venue in Southeast Queensland, and I’ve been to a lot of them.

One of the things that sets it apart is that the entire venue is wired with a single sound system, which is incredibly convenient for videographers. Even though it’s a two-hour drive from my studio, Gabbinbar is the one venue I always look forward to working at.
