A Romantic Beach Wedding Ceremony
Nothing is more romantic and memorable than having your
wedding at the beach. The sound of the surf, the texture of
the sand and the view of whatever body of water you
choose all combine to make a beach wedding ceremony a
wedding that will stay in your memory (and your guests'!)
for a lifetime.
Let us help you achieve your dream beach wedding
ceremony
Weddings on Victorian Beaches
When most people think of a beach wedding, they think of
exotic and far away places....but you needn't go that far,
nor spend that much money, because in Victoria we have
the most gorgeous beaches right here on our own door
step.
Beach wedding Permits
In order to hold you Beach wedding ceremony in Victoria
you need to get permission from the relevant authorities.
The best place to start is to ring the local council, In most
cases they can help you, if they cant, they will be able to
tell you who controls permits for that area.
Parks Victoria is also responsible for issuing permits on
piers, some gardens and a lot of open beaches
Beach Wedding Locations
Finding a nice beach wedding location is really up to
you. Take a drive with your partner and find a spot that
you both like. It needs to be a spot that is easy to get to,
you can not expect elderly guests to stumble over rocks
and sand dunes to get there. Having your beach wedding
ceremony in a popular tourist spot can be tricky if its in the
middle of the Summer holiday season, Finding a spare bit of
sand is almost impossible and you will be sharing your
wedding with hundreds of other beach goers!
Beach wedding starting times
Its really up to you what time of the day you want to have
your beach wedding. We would recommend early in the
day when the sun is not so hot or later in the afternoon
when the sun is starting to go down a little. There will
probably be less people on the beach at these times and it
would be more comfortable if it is a hot day..
Weather for beach weddings
While we all dream of our beach wedding being in the
glorious sunshine at 24 degrees with not a breath of wind,
unfortunately it doesn’t always work that way. So have a
back up plan in case of bad weather, whether it’s an
alternate spot, a venue close by or even your reception
centre. It’s a good idea to outline your back up plan to your
guests, so they know the drill if the weather turns nasty. In
the case that this does happen we will do our best to set
up your decorations at your plan B location.
Not that our weather can ever be predicted !!

Check the tide for your beach wedding!
Always remember to check whether the tide will be in or
out for your beach wedding, there would be nothing worse
than being wiped out by a wave right in the middle of your
vows! Its always best to visit your beach site in both low
and high tide to get a true idea on the best place for your
wedding ceremony.
