Ben & Leah's Wedding at Mavis's Kitchen, Northern Rivers

Nestled beneath the majestic silhouette of Wollumbin (Mount Warning) in the lush caldera of the Northern Rivers, Mavis's Kitchen & Cabins in Uki is one of the most breathtaking hinterland wedding venues in Australia. When Ben and Leah celebrated their wedding on March 4, their vision was centered around warmth, intimate acoustics and an effortless celebration with family and friends.

The Ceremony on the Lawn

The ceremony took place on the expansive green lawns overlooking the gardens and orchard. For outdoor weddings in the Northern Rivers where power points can be dozens of meters away from the ceremony tree, Charter Music provides dedicated battery-powered acoustic amplification to keep the setup completely cordless and discreet.

As guests took their seats among the mountain breezes, soft fingerpicked acoustic melodies set an inviting, grounded mood. Leah walked down the aisle to a bespoke acoustic arrangement of soulful classic folk, followed by joyous, upbeat rhythms as petals and confetti filled the air for their newlywed exit.

Cocktail Hour & Sunset Canapés

Following the ceremony, guests moved to the rustic veranda and garden lawns for champagne and canapés. The music transitioned naturally into reimagined soul, upbeat classics, and relaxed coastal grooves - providing a rich soundtrack while the couple slipped away for golden-hour portraits among the mountains.

Having live musicians who understand the natural acoustics of outdoor venues ensures the music never overwhelms guest conversation, but rather wraps the entire celebration in an unforgettable atmosphere.
