Wedding Reception Venues Narrabeen

For couples who picture their wedding with sand underfoot and the sound of the surf, Narrabeen is worth a look. The suburb sits on the Northern Beaches between a long surf beach and the Narrabeen Lakes, and a reception here is naturally intimate and relaxed, closer to a long beachside lunch than a formal ballroom dinner.

The venue listed here is Cabana Beach Kiosk, a beachfront kiosk and terrace on the sand that is hired exclusively for your wedding. What to consider:

• Most guests drive and parking is much easier than in the city. Pittwater Road runs through Narrabeen and the B-Line bus serves the area, but a shuttle is worth considering for guests travelling from further away.
• The style is a casual beachfront kiosk and terrace, suited to a small, relaxed reception or a celebration after a beach ceremony.
• Cabana Beach Kiosk holds up to 50 guests, so it is best for an intimate wedding with immediate family and close friends.
• Spring and summer weekends are the most popular by the beach, so enquire as early as possible for a warm-weather date.
• Pricing is from $50 per person, with Spanish-inspired food and cocktails, which keeps the budget clear for a small guest list.

Exclusive hire means the terrace is yours for the day, with the beach as your backdrop for photos. A smaller wedding here lets you spend time with every guest, share good food and cocktails, and keep things easygoing. Ask the venue about timings, setup and a plan for wind or rain, since the terrace is by the water. For couples who want a quieter, more personal day, it offers something city venues rarely can: a private terrace right on the beach, with the surf just beyond.
