From Backyard Birthdays to Brand Activations: What It’s Really Like to Hire Patrick Putts
Our goal at Patrick Putts is straightforward: bring the classic, lighthearted fun of mini-golf directly to you with a premium, fully mobile setup that takes the stress completely out of event planning. Whether we are rolling into a backyard for a milestone birthday, setting up on a manicured lawn for a wedding cocktail hour, or activating a brand at a high-profile corporate function, our goal is always the same—deliver an unforgettable experience.
But you don’t just have to take our word for it. In the events industry, real social proof matters.
Below, we’ve broken down some of our favourite recent review from our clients across Brisbane, Gold Coast & Sunshine Coast, giving you a sneak peek behind the scenes of how we bring different events to life.
🍾 1. Weddings & Milestone Celebrations
Best for: Filling the wedding "photo gap," cocktail hours, and memorable reception entertainment.
For couples planning a wedding, the timeline is everything. One of the biggest challenges is the "photo gap"—that multi-hour lull between the ceremony and the reception where the bridal party leaves to take professional photographs, leaving guests waiting around. Our mobile mini-golf setups solve that exact problem by giving guests of all generations a fun, interactive way to connect.
The Reviews:
"Thank you so much for providing us with your amazing 6 hole putt put for our wedding day! The guests loved it and so did we! Perfect surprise for my husband as well! Communication was amazing and answered every question I had during the booking process. Definitely going to be booking again for birthday celebrations! 🍾😊🎉"
— Zoe S, Bride
"Lachy and the team at Patrick Putts were amazing. We knew we wanted to have these guys onboard and a part of our wedding before we even had a venue locked in. The bump in / bump out was effortless, communication fantastic and the set up look even better than the photos! Thank you so much again guys, we wish you all the best ! Xx"
— Tracey B, Bride
Behind the Scenes:
Knowing a couple wants us locked in for their wedding before they've even secured their venue is an incredible compliment, and theses reviews were a really proud moment for our team. For weddings, we make sure our bump-in and bump-out process is completely effortless so that the couple and their coordinator don’t have to worry about a thing on the big day. We ensure the equipment looks incredibly sharp, premium, and "even better than the photos" so it complements your wedding styling beautifully.
🏢 2. Corporate & Brand Activations
Best for: Experiential marketing, B2B networking events, and high-impact brand engagement.
In the corporate world, generic networking events can sometimes feel a bit stiff. Integrating interactive entertainment like a premium mini-golf setup acts as a natural icebreaker, keeping clients and colleagues engaged with a brand for much longer.
The Reviews:
"I used Patrick Putts for a brand activation with Luxury Escapes and they were amazing. So easy to work with, very responsive and when I asked to bring the booking forward the day of, they were so willing to help and came up with a plan seamless for our team. I would strongly recommend booking them for any event."
— Alex T, Luxury Escapes
"We used Patrick Putts for a Corporate Activation for International Mens Day. Lachy was excellent to communicate with, professional, the pricing was excellent and the activation went off really well and looks fabulous. I would absolutely use Patrick Putts again."
— Melanie H, Medibank
Behind the Scenes:
Live activations require quick thinking, and when Alex reached out during the Luxury Escapes brand activation needing to pull our booking forward on the day, we adjusted on the fly. We immediately adapted our setup schedule to keep their event running seamlessly, because we know that flexibility and reliability are everything in corporate entertainment.
🏫 3. University Campus & Private Community Events
Best for: Student engagement, high-traffic festivals, and multi-generational family fun days.
Organising an event for large crowds requires durable, high-quality equipment and staff who know how to keep the energy high and the lines moving smoothly.
The Reviews:
"We had Patrick Putts run an activation at our event for uni students, and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the mini golf. Great staff, lovely to interact with them. Overall, a wonderful experience."
— Sowmya R, QUT Guild
"Lachy was amazing. He was accomodating, arrived and collected on time and a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend his business."
— Sue S, Kings College
Behind the Scenes:
Whether it’s a high-energy university campus activation or a private community gathering, timing is everything. As Sue noted, we pride ourselves on being strictly on time for arrivals and collections, ensuring your event schedule goes off without a hitch. Our team loves interacting with guests, ensuring that everyone from students to families has a seamless, fun, and wonderful experience from the first putt to the last.
