3. Donkey Photos and Meet and Greet
When it comes to wedding photos, why not think outside the box? Some of the most memorable wedding shots happen when couples embrace the unique features of their venue. At Bearded Dragon Hotel, for example, our beloved donkeys — Clancy, Mabel, and Matilda — make for a whimsical and heartwarming addition to your wedding day. Capture unforgettable moments with these charming creatures, creating memories that your guests will talk about for years. Not every venue offers this one-of-a-kind experience, so be sure to ask about unique features like petting zoos or pony rides when you book.
4. Beer Tasting or Local Wine Upgrades
Elevate your reception by adding a true taste of the Scenic Rim with beer tasting paddles or upgrades featuring Tamborine’s renowned local wines. These interactive options not only engage your guests but also introduce them to the best that our region has to offer. At Bearded Dragon Hotel, we pride ourselves on supporting local breweries and wineries, so you can be sure your wedding will feature top-notch, homegrown flavors.
