Discover why Summergrove Estate is a dream location for Gold Coast brides. Antoinette, a luxury bridal makeup artist, shares the benefits of having a stunning onsite getting ready space.
Why Summergrove Estate Is a Dream Wedding Venue for Brides (and Gold Coast Makeup Artists)
As a bridal makeup artist on the Gold Coast and Byron Bay region, I’ve had the pleasure of working in some truly breathtaking venues—but Summergrove Estate always stands out. Tucked into the lush hinterland just over the NSW border, it’s the perfect mix of luxury, peace, and natural beauty. But one feature in particular makes it a standout for both brides and beauty professionals: the dedicated onsite getting ready space.
The Luxury of Getting Ready Onsite - from a gold coast makeup artist
From a professional makeup artist’s perspective, having a private, purpose-built space onsite to get ready in is a game-changer. The bridal suite at Summergrove is filled with natural light, is calm and spacious, and beautifully styled. These elements create the perfect conditions for a relaxed and enjoyable morning of beauty preparation.
For the bride, this means you don’t have to coordinate travel, stress about time, or deal with bad lighting in a hotel bathroom. You’re able to begin your day fully present, surrounded by your bridal party, in a setting that enhances the overall experience.
A DESTINATION Makeup Artist’s Dream Setting
The makeup setup at Summergrove Estate’s bridal suite is ideal:
Bright natural light for precision makeup application
Large mirrors and elegant furnishings for a luxurious feel
Spacious layout and flow out to your own private courtyard, allowing hair and makeup to happen simultaneously without chaos
These conditions help me deliver the best results possible—and ensure you look flawless both in person and in photos.
Why I Love Returning to Summergrove Estate
Beyond the beauty of the location, the team at Summergrove is exceptional—always organised, warm, and helpful. That makes a real difference to how smoothly your day flows.
For brides seeking a luxury bridal experience, this venue offers a calm and elevated atmosphere from the very first moment of your wedding morning.
