Once at the Red Cliffs you will experience a Welcome to Country (in language and in English) followed by a Smoking Ceremony.

Your Tour Guide, Pat Torres will explain to you the significance of the plants used in the Smoking Ceremony and then share, from the Aboriginal Women’s Dreaming Story perspective, the cultural stories of the site.

This unique Aboriginal cultural tour of Broome is particularly special as it is Pat’s Dreaming Site – her birth site.

This is a hands-on experience. You will get the opportunity to participate in building a traditional ground oven, cooking fish the traditional way in paper bark covering and also to make damper. While this delicious bush tucker ‘feed’ is cooking, Pat will share with you the powerful Dreaming stories of the area. After morning tea it’s on to learning the Snake Dance and some language words, before returning to your vehicle and heading back to Broome.

Nestled in the heart of the Kimberley region, in beautiful Broome, our celebrations are not just ceremonies; they’re living expressions of tradition, heritage, and community.

At the heart of our weddings is the traditional Djugun/Yawuru smoking ceremony and the warm “Welcome to Country” presided over by Djugun elder Patricia ‘Mamanyjun’ Torres.

This is not just a wedding; it’s a journey into the timeless traditions of this land.

Our ceremonies are more than vows; they are a dance between love and culture. The sacred smoking ceremony, a symbol of cleansing and purity, blesses the couple and surrounds them with the ancient wisdom of Country. As the smoke drifts around the newlyweds, it carries the blessings of generations and hope for a harmonious future.

Pat ‘Mamanyjun’ Torres, a respected elder, leads the ceremony with wisdom, warmth, and respect. You’ll not only be welcomed—you’ll be embraced by the land’s spirit and history.

This is more than a celebration; it’s a fusion of hearts, a tribute to heritage, and an invitation to walk on sacred ground. A wedding here unites two hearts with love, tradition, and the enduring spirit of the West Kimberley.
