Learn How To Make The Perfect Cocktail At Cony’s Cronulla
Picture this. You’re learning how to make cocktails with a group of your nearest and dearest, whilst enjoying Cony’s iconic guac and chips. Does life get any better?! There’s no set-up and no hassle with Cony’s cocktail classes. You’ll get to make and sip on two or three iconic cocktails. It’s $79pp for two cocktails and $95pp for three. Both options are paired with a moreish cheese platter and a break between each shake means there’s plenty of time to sit and savour the moment. You can book via their website on a Saturday or Sunday or for groups of 10 or more, private classes are available any day of the week. Call 0433 502 422 to explore your options!
Spend A Sunny Afternoon Cruising The Port Hacking On Your Very Own Catamaran
An afternoon out on the water is a surefire way to destress before the big day. The Shire’s very own Mintaka Charters is licensed to carry up to 20 passengers and comes with a skipper and crew. They know the Port Hacking like the back of their hand so you can expect to anchor in only the dreamiest locations. Best of all, BYO food and alcohol is available or outsource to their legendary catering partners for ease.
Get Crafty With Pinot & Picasso
Skip the DIY and paint all over your couch situation. Pinot & Picasso is where it’s at if you fancy getting a little crafty before your big day. You can opt to join one of their pre-existing classes by selecting a date that fits or you can go private and customise your own artwork! A picture of the bride’s beloved perhaps? If you’ve got your own venue in mind, Pinot & Picasso are happy to travel to you, too!
