Amaroo Valley Springs provides a space for a couple to bond on Married at First Sight

Amaroo Valley Springs made sure to pull out all of the stops for a Married at First Sight honeymoon - rose petals were scattered on the bed, the champagne was ready, and the experiment's newest couple had a slice of Kangaroo Valley to themselves.

Jessica from Victoria and Daniel from Queensland, met on Tuesday's episode (February 22), and tied the knot in Richmond (below) before they made their way to Kangaroo Valley.

The TV newlyweds, a film crew and limited Amaroo staff recorded the honeymoon in early October for about five days.

"It was a funny and exciting time, something a bit different - you don't always have a crew living there for five days," business owner Andy Cichanowski said.

Like the other honeymoons filmed in late 2021, this one was filmed in a "COVID bubble".

Restrictions at that time meant that no guests were allowed to stay Amaroo Valley Springs, which it was the "perfect" opportunity to film the show.

The business owner said only a few people knew about the production, which meant family members and regular customers were surprised to see the property on their screens.

"We had quite a few more followers and bookings during and after the show," he said.

"I knew it was a big audience, but there was real pride to have regular guests sending us messages."

Mr Cichanowski said staff catered during filming and showed them around the three villas.

"We were driving them around the property and assisting the crew," he said.

The cliffs, rolling hills and dams provided the peaceful backdrop the newlyweds needed whilst they opened up to one another.

Daniel set up a canvas, easel and paints in front of one of the dams, where they spoke about their relationships with their parents.

The groom admitted that he immersed himself in painting and art as a form of escapism, from his alcoholic father, after his parents split.

The personal trainer explained that he was also a mural painter and no longer had a connection with his mother or father.

Jessica listened and spoke about her unbreakable bond with both of her parents, who she considered to be her best friends.

Whilst the couple had rocky moments after the show's infamous honesty box, and slept in separate beds, their love story will continue to unfold on our screens.

"They were quite nice," the Amaroo Valley Springs owner said.

"It was a massive thing - they stayed here, they married a stranger, they are followed around and mic'd up, it's hard to get to know one another."

Mr Cichanowski said the show shone a spotlight on Kangaroo Valley.

"It's great to have a showcase of the area," he said.

"The flow-on effect is knowledge of the area, people can do road trips."

He said businesses in surrounding areas like the Highlands, the South Coast and Canberra could also "reap the awards" of the exposure.

Married at First Sight will be on tonight at 7.30pm, and people can catch up by watching episodes on Nine Now.
