Ultimate Eagleby Wedding Guide
Get married in Eagleby, SE QLD, with river views, easy M1 access, and Jake Smith, the top celebrant for a warm, relaxed, unforgettable day.
Eagleby, just southeast of Brisbane, is one of Queensland’s best-kept wedding-location secrets!
Here’s why:
1. Prime location & easy access
Eagleby sits right along the Pacific Motorway, the M1, with Exit 34 at your doorstep making it a breeze to reach whether guests are coming from Brisbane, the Gold Coast, or Logan City. No more “getting stuck in traffic” nightmares because you’ve chosen an inner-city or coastal venue.
And there’s more road infrastructure on the horizon (like the Coomera Connector) that’ll further smooth guest arrivals! Even if they’re flying in from Sydney, Melbourne, or Tasmania.
2. Stunning river and countryside backdrops
Tucked in-between the Logan and Albert Rivers, the suburb offers lush, peaceful scenery perfect for big-day photos. Whether you’re after laid-back wetlands or manicured outdoor spaces, Eagleby delivers in spades.
3. Strong local amenities
It’s well-equipped for functions—community halls, local parks like the Eagleby Community Park, and even the Eagleby Community Hall are available for hire. For receptions, nearby venues like Sirromet Wines, the Beenleigh Events Centre, the Twin Rivers Centre, or Palm Lakes Resort, are close by—great for adding some sparkle after the ceremony.
4. Great for guests—and wedding vendors
Guests enjoy being able to stay locally within a short drive of Brisbane or the coast—about 25–35 minutes along the M1 without the hassle of big-city traffic. Plus you’re spoilt by local Eagleby wedding celebrants like Jake Smith of Married By Jake. Listen to his Wed Co. podcast episode.
5. Laid-back, authentic South East QLD vibe
There’s a real community spirit here. Eagleby’s casual, family-friendly tone creates a warm, relaxed atmosphere that small-town weddings thrive on
