Outdoors in the gardens

1. Dee's Lawn (a) - A beautiful spot that is seen as guests walk up the drive way. Its great for photos when guests arrive and leave, but does feel removed from the rest of your night. Perfect for up long words approx 12 letters
2. Dee's Lawn (b) - Great for photos with a lovely background, can be seen from the garden party area and the deck of the homestead. Downside, the back may be seen as guests enter. Great for up to approx 7 letters
3. Dee's Lawn (c) - Has a real impact for a couple of letters or numbers. Great for photos with the homestead in the background, downside the rear of the letters can be seen from the homestead. Approx 3 letters max
4. Circular Drive - Creates a beautiful image with the fountain in the foreground. easy for photos with guests and can been see as your guests arrive down the driveway. Can be placed out of the way for vehicular access. Downside the back of the lettering faces the Governs lawn which is often where the ceremony takes place. Suitable for up to approx 7 letters.
5. Garden Party Lawn (a) - This spot has a beautiful leafy backdrop for photos, tucked in up against the massive tree in that corner of the garden party area. Directly focused in for the garden party is perfect for group shots. Suitable for up to 8-10 Letters, but less letters tend to look better there.
6. Garden Party Lawn (b) - This is absolutely the most used spot, but don't let that dissuade you, its perfect for many reasons. Tucked in to the garden, the letters have a beautiful backdrop of trees and greenery, often surrounded by beautiful low flowers. There is room for the longest of lettering and its perfect for the garden party time, as well as later in the evening as it can be seen and photographed from the deck of the homestead. There is no real limit to how many letters we can place here, but up to approx 8-10 would be best.
7. Dan's Lawn - A bit removed, but will help draw guests deeper into the gardens at Gabbinbar. Perfect if you are having a very large number of guests, or a particularly long phrase. There is no real limit to how many letters we can place here.
Indoors in the Pavilion or Homestead
In the Pavilion - What an amazing building! Beautiful for your ceremony or first dance. Whist not as common, we can absolutely use the letters as part of your ceremony decor, but we have more often placed out letters in the pavilion after guests enter the main building ready for your first dance. Best for up to approx 6 Letters on the end wall
In the Conservatory - Oh wow what a space ♥ of course most often this space is for the sit down meal and celebration but it has also been used for stand up cocktail style informal wedding, and we are happy to help decorate and make it special where ever we can. a shorter phrase is best here, approx 3-4 letters
Ballroom end wall ( with piano in place ) - Perfect for an awesome atmosphere in that room, Whilst we have had 5 letters there with the piano in place, 4 would look better.
Ballroom end wall ( with piano relocated ) - This makes such a statement, centered on the wall, its perfect for photos and help connect the ballroom to the main event. Beautiful first dance's have happened in front of our letters in this spot. ♥ up to approx 6 Letters fit nicely here.
Ballroom side wall - Fantastic space for longer letters inside. Good to take photos from, and helps to create an atmosphere in the ballroom. Perfect for approx 7 letters
