Testimonials & The Team

"Fantastic location, but it is the staff that make this place. After having to postpone our wedding 3 times and dealing with a dumpster fire of a venue, we came upon LRGC and met Melanie who is an absolute legend. Managed to get the wedding booked, organised, and run all within 5 weeks. Nothing was a hassle, it was all explained simply and calmly. On the day Keighlan made sure everything ran like clockwork. The food was sensational, atmosphere was perfect and even the weather, after weeks of rain, was spectacular. If you’re looking for a wedding venue around this part of Sydney, do yourself a favour and check out Long Reef Golf Club."

"My wife and I recently held our ceremony and reception at Long Reef and to say the experience was wonderful is an understatement. Prior to the wedding and throughout the stress of Covid lockdowns the wedding coordinator Melanie was incredible to deal with. She always kept us up to date with the latest information and worked hard to make sure our day was perfect. The day itself went off without a single hiccup. The venue and food was incredible and all the staff on the night was friendly and professional. We could not recommend this venue enough for any special occasion!"

"In the lead up to the wedding, our wedding coordinator Melanie worked very closely with us to arrange for the perfect day. She was prompt with her responses and worked tirelessly to get us the information we needed. The venue itself was immaculately prepared on the day and perfectly embodied our vision for our wedding. My wife and I cannot recommend Long Reef Golf Club highly enough and are so thankful to have had the opportunity to celebrate our special day at the perfect venue."

"LRGC exceeded every expectation and was the perfect venue for our mid-winter wedding. We cannot thank you all enough! Melanie was phenomenal in pulling together all our arrangements. We felt there was no ask too big or small along the way. Having planned our wedding in space of twelve weeks – mid global pandemic – seemed impossible. But Melanie and the entire LRGC team made the whole process so easy-going & seamless. In terms of the venue set up, attention to detail, finishing touches and food/beverage service – it was absolutely exceptional. Couldn’t recommend highly enough as a venue for a ceremony and reception."

"We had our wedding at Long Reef just a week ago. The venue just looks so stunning with the perfect weather, it is a great place with first look too, we did our first look at the headland. The staff at Long Reef were so friendly and helpful, our wedding coordinator Melanie did a great job in helping us, she is always prompt to reply to our enquires, the staff who drove us to the golf course were thoughtful to provide us water after a long day. The food was great too, our guest loved the canape so much. Great place for wedding ceremony and reception 🙂"

"A tremendous thank you to you and your amazing staff for making our day so special. It all went off without a hitch and we couldn’t be happier with the decorations, food and the work you guys put into the day. We had so many fantastic compliments from our guests about the delicious food, friendly wait staff and beautiful venue. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves! We have nothing but wonderful things to say about LRGC and will recommend it to anyone getting married/needing a venue in the future. Thank you so much again for exceeding our expectations and making our wedding day a breeze!"

"The LRGC staff were amazing!! From the wedding coordinator, Mel to the food and beverage staff. Married recently in late June 2021 but previously scheduled for August 2019, the staff made the change stress free due to COVID19. Everyone worked together to make the day magical. The guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed themselves. So, If you are looking to book your wedding I highly recommend LRGC."

"I highly recommend LRGC for weddings! We had our wedding there and everything from the food, to the staff and facilities for both the ceremony and reception were terrific. Mel did a wonderful job ensuring the day ran smoothly and was so helpful in helping us plan for our big day. We had lots of compliments from our guests and we could not have asked for a better location for an elegant yet relaxed beachside wedding."

"With the green of the golf course on one side and the blue of the ocean on the other the setting for our wedding ceremony for 100 guests on the lawn at Long Reef Golf Club was idyllic. The amazing flower arrangements from Briohney at Copper Beech; the Devine wedding cake from Bill at Sweet Connoisseur; the fabulous photography of Ronny from Creek Street Photography; the show-stopping drapery and fairy-lights from Lamel all set us up for an exceptionally warm and loving reception. Combined with the delicious food prepared by the Long Reef chefs and fabulous service and guidance with a smile from the Long Reef staff it culminated in the best wedding and reception that you could ever hope for; and all that despite adhering to the Covid19 protocols. For a relaxed yet sophisticated, scenically located wedding hosted by a marvelous support team we highly recommend the Long Reef Golf Club."

"Long reef hosted our wedding ceremony and reception. Long Reef’s staff, food and location were second to none. The staff were easy to work with in the lead up and on the night again were extremely friendly with top class service. Couldn’t recommend highly enough as a venue for a ceremony and reception. Wet weather alternative came in a treat and was still stunning."

"We had a small, intimate wedding at Long Reef Golf Club last week and we couldn’t recommend it more! Megan and Alex were amazing and made sure the day went perfectly. Even though we had wet weather, the rooms were set up so beautifully and have amazing ocean views, we didn’t feel like we missed out at all. In terms of social distancing, staff made sure that regulations were followed and clearly communicated, which we appreciated as we really wanted to keep our guests safe, particularly as we had elderly and at risk guests. In saying that, we were also able to talk to our guests and the layout of the room was perfect for accommodating this. Everything was beautiful, the food was amazing and we were on cloud 9 all day. We honestly couldn’t thank the team at Long Reef enough!"

"Finn and I would LOVE to thank you for absolutely everything you did for us. The ceremony and reception was absolutely beautiful. The end result was beyond our expectation and we have you to thank for it all. You listened to us and did everything we asked, plus more. You were absolutely wonderful! Your staff were fantastic throughout and made our wedding perfect. Without you, our wedding would not have been near as perfect. We are still on a high from the weekend and can not fault a thing. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"

"Thank you from both of us for helping make the day what it was! We loved everything about it and wouldn’t have had it any other way, from location to the look and feel of the wedding, it was perfect. Thank you, Alana for your help over the year, you took a lot of stress off of us both."

"We had the best time at Long Reef and it was a truly amazing day. We would like to thank you for all your support during the 6 months leading to the wedding and on the big day. The team has been amazing in making sure that everything went smoothly. We received so many compliments from our family and friends."

"We had the most amazing time, literally everything was perfect. We wouldn’t have changed anything. The day ran perfectly and the food was exceptional, Steph was amazing on the day and really made us both comfortable and feel incredibly special. She worked so hard and was always available if we needed her. A perfect day."

"We had our wedding two weeks ago at Long Reef Golf Club and it is the most amazing venue, we are so glad we chose to hold our wedding there. The majority of things were included in our package which made our wedding planning so much easier! Alana, our wedding planner, was beyond exceptional. She was great to communicate with, she was so efficient with our many enquiries leading up to the wedding, and on the day her and the other staff members were fantastic and made sure everything ran to schedule. The venue itself is picture perfect, beautiful views and decor with great menu choices. The location is amazing, with the beach, cliffs and rolling hills. We were so grateful that we had stunning weather on the day, but they also have a great backup wet weather plan too for peace of mind! Highly recommend Long Reef Golf Club for a wedding, you honestly could not ask for anything more! Thank you so much LRGC for the best day of our lives!"

"I just wanted to say thank you for all your help, you went above and beyond to make our wedding day run smoothly.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.. Cath & Ian AMOS"

"We chose Long Reef to host our special day, we picked one of their packages where everything from the setup, cake, DJ, was all organised which meant we could just walk into the room beautifully setup. The food was incredible, and the service was unbelievable. Such a beautiful location even if it did rain but they had a backup plan and they moved everything inside and set it up to look beautiful. I would highly recommend the team at Long Reef to be part of your special day"

Alana and Stephanie, the event managers, did a great job of organising our day and were flexible with late-notice changes and during our correspondence they were prompt and efficient . You will not be disappointed if you choose LRGC for your wedding!"

"On behalf of Josh and I, what an incredible day/night we had at our Wedding! Everything was just spot on, honestly. From the moment we booked the date, you have been just fantastic. It’s been easy, stress-free and so simple to communicate with you and ensure that everything ran smoothly. All your help made wedding planning much easier than everyone warned us of. The ceremony was beautiful – thank goodness the weather held out! And from there is just got better. The cocktails were a huge hit and we can’t stop hearing about the incredible food! The scallops were unreal and the steak perfect! Oh, and the canapés were divine! The fact that all of us with dietary requirements were catered for so thoughtfully, was the icing on the cake. It’s rare that I’ve attending an event and received such amazing service for being coeliac. I had no idea that we would receive alternative canapés too – thank you! It was easily the greatest day of our lives! I hope you know how truly fantastic you are at making dreams come true."

"We are still buzzing from the weekend! We just had such a great day! We wanted to say a big thank you to everyone at Long Reef for making our wedding such a perfect and seamless day. You really made all the planning really easy, and on the day everything just ran so smoothly. You guided us on our decisions and made everything happen exactly as we wanted it. All the relationships you have with suppliers made organising everything so easy, we really haven’t had a stressful experience at all with the planning of our wedding. Which is amazing!! We’ve had many comments from our guests that it was the most beautiful wedding they’ve ever been to and that the Long Reef location is just stunning. We also had so many comments on how good the food was and how attentive and just lovely all the staff were on the night. Thank you SO MUCH! We had the BEST day, and you helped make it so perfect!"

"Thank you Long Reef Golf Club and the wonderful events team for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect for us, particularly ‘the Stephanie’s’ who were so lovely and helpful throughout the entire planning process – nothing was too big of an ask! Our guests raved about the incredible food, views and staff on the day! We are so grateful for your special part in our wedding day, our dream beach wedding was everything we hoped for!"

"  We attended a Wedding at Long Reef Golf Club over the weekend. What a wonderful day we had! The location is perfect, right on the beach, with the smell of the sea air to enjoy throughout the day. The Staff were very polite and helpful, very accommodating to additional requests & dietary requirements. The food was delicious and very well presented. Congratulations LRGC on a fantastic whole package !"

"We would like to thank all the staff involved in the planning and wedding day activities for Sophie and Richard’s wedding. It was truly a magical event! Everything was perfect, all the guests were very impressed with the venue, staff, service and food. Some stand outs were the wait staff remembering the names of the guests as they served their drinks. The staff were so attentive and friendly offering guests more salads etc  and anything I asked for, like refilling the candles, was attended to… They have been exceptionally well trained. The food was so delicious, not the usual “so so” wedding fair. A special thank you to Michael, the chef, who let my mother view the cakes and suggested how they be cut. He did an amazing job cutting the tricky lemon meringue into perfect portions. Stephanie, your planning made all this possible. Thank you for being such a good communicator and keeping us on track. It was sad when the day came to an end all too quickly."

"Long Reef Golf Club was an amazing venue to get married. We were blessed with beautiful weather and the outdoor setting was perfect. Stephanie and her team were fantastic, and went out of their way to accomodate any request. Nothing was too much trouble, and she gave great suggestions for other suppliers. The night was perfect because of their attention to detail, and the food was great too. Definitely recommend!"

"Kathryn and I would like to extend a big THANK YOU to you and your staff for making our wedding day extra special.  You have a very “can do” attitude and your attention to detail is impeccable. Also, many of my friends and family commented on how good the food was – the steak was cooked to a perfect medium and the appetisers, particularly the prawn wrapped in potato, were some of the best people have tasted at a wedding venue. The golf carts added a novelty factor as well as being a functional means of transporting us to the most scenic locations on the golf course. Thanks again! Jeremy & Kathryn"

"On behalf of Tim and myself and both our parents we would like to say, THANK YOU! We had the most amazing day, and we can’t thank you enough for organising such an amazing day and evening. The floral arrangements looked perfect, thank you for the final touches of everything you added to our day. The day ran smooth and it was just amazing to sit back and enjoy the day, as your beautiful staff had it all under control and did a fantastic job!"

"We wanted to say a huge thank to all the staff at LRGC. We had a wonderful day, thanks to the smooth and professional teams.  Everyone said what a good time they had, many even saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to!  So please pass on our thanks to the catering team, the florists, the DJ, the bar staff, the floor staff and the cleaners. Steph did a terrific job keeping everything on schedule and managing everything. We are so happy and excited.  It’s all a big dream and very romantic, thanks hugely to the gig you chaps put on for us.     "

"We had our wedding here and they far exceeded any expectations that I had. The venue is beautiful, the food was amazing, the staff were extremely proactive and helpful with some hiccups on the day (totally out of their control) and the service was exceptional. Every guest has commented on what a great night they had. A special shout out to the Steph’s, you guys were just awesome. Thank you, thank you, thank you and thanks again."

"There are no words to describe how amazing the entire wedding team at Long Reef Golf Club are! Our wedding was a dream come true thanks to Steph and her wonderful team. The day would not have been as perfect without her professional help and advice! 5 months on and we still remember the dedication the team devoted to providing us and our wonderful guests the perfect day to remember forever. Thank you so much for such a memorable experience, we know you’ll be bringing happiness to couples for a long time to come!"

"I cannot speak highly enough of this venue! We arranged our wedding from Brisbane and it really couldn’t have been any simpler or have gone any smoother. The attention to detail, level of organisation are absolutely amazing people (especially the Steph & Steph team) at this venue made everything unbelievably easy and enjoyable! Don’t look any further than this venue, you certainly won’t regret it."
