Boutique Weddings
I don’t even know where to begin.
There are no words to describe how amazing my whole experience was. From the moment myself and my new husband visited Kalinya Mandy took our breathe away with her incredible personality and her beautiful astonishing estate.
It was absolute heaven walking through and knowing instantly that this is where I was going to marry the man I love
We stayed there for 3 nights and I had the honour of being able to invite my family and friends to share the days with us. They all couldn’t stop saying how beautiful the grounds were. Everything was so green and I’m pretty sure we all squealed with delight every time the ducks were in sight
There was never anything too hard to do, and the team at Kalinya went more than above and beyond for us. They ACTUALLY used a leaf blower to blow dry the grass as it was still a little wet from the rains and were sweeping the grass to ensure all the dirt was out of it. No one does that. Ever.
Mandy, Bec and the team were always happy to help in any way possible and were never more than a few seconds away.
If you are looking for a place to get married, have a party or just to relax for the weekend you are crazy not to come here. Everyone should come here. This was the best experience of my entire life and they have given my husband and I memories that will never fade.
I don’t know how to Thankyou enough and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to stop smiling (or crying)
Mandy you are one of the most beautiful people I have ever met in my entire life and I just love and adore you.
