3 Reasons to elope in Mt Mulligan

28 Feb, 2024

Looking to skip the fanfare and fuss of big ceremonies? Not overjoyed at the idea of table settings and flower arrangements? Swap the big wedding for a moment that’s just right for you when you elope at Mt Mulligan Lodge.

Location, Location

Forget staging and set up; when outback Queensland is your backdrop, you don’t need anything else to set the scene. With the mighty Ngarrabullgan (Mount Mulligan) escarpment as your backdrop, Mt Mulligan Lodge sits on a 28,000 ha cattle station. You’ve got 28,000 ha of photo opportunities but even better, there’s no bad angles when you’re surrounded by raw beauty at every turn.

Make Memories Together

Throw out the run sheets and military precision timings, life at Mt Mulligan Lodge slows down to your pace. Elope in the early morning, with sunrise and bird song to walk you down the aisle, before a picnic lunch and a float at the Ah Bowers waterhole. Say I do at the Sunset bar, before celebrating under the stars with a private dinner by the weir. There’s ATV tours, walking trails, scenic helicopter flights – and plenty more ways to celebrate in your own special style. With the staff happy to be witnesses, the rest is up to you.

Bliss Out

The secret is out. When you elope, you go straight to the good part. Your honeymoon starts now. Fine dining, a fabulous room, pampering, pool time; maybe it’s even just free time – luxury comes in all shapes and sizes. At Mt Mulligan Lodge, you’ve got plenty of types of luxury to choose from. Fill the iron corrugated bathtub on the verandah of your Outback Room or Outback Suite for a soak for two, or sip French champagne on the deck of your glamping tent. Dress up, or down, for dinner, where Head Chef Rene Moebius and his team will work wonders with the local Atherton Tablelands produce. Pair dishes with Australian wines, included in your stay, and settle in for a game of chess and a nightcap before bed.

When you elope at Mt Mulligan Lodge, each day, night, and moment can be all about you.
