Thanks to long stretches of sandy beaches, wonderful sea views, and its spectacular hotels and restaurants, Perth has become a top destination for loved-up couples looking to celebrate an engagement. If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place. Here at Tagvenue we’ve hunted down some of the best places for your Perth Engagement Party, so you don’t have to. From upscale restaurants perfect for a formal dinner party, to lively nightclubs ideal for a crazy celebration, Perth's engagement party venues will not disappoint you. Book yours with just a few clicks!
It pretty much goes without saying that the most popular areas for an engagement party in Perth are in the downtown area. Northbridge is also popular thanks to having some great venues, while Leederville and West Perth must also get a mention. Oh, and we can’t forget about all the hotels and restaurants along the coast, from Merriwa in the north all the way down to Rockingham in the south.
The advantages are obvious if you choose to hire an engagement party venue in downtown Perth - great public transport, and an abundance of great hotels and restaurants with some of the best food on offer in the city. Add in the most stunning views of the Swan River and you’ve already got a night to remember on your hands.
In the downtown area, you’ll be spoilt for choice and you can take your pick. Maybe you want a night of sophisticated cosmopolitans at a swanky cocktail bar, or perhaps fine dining at some classy restaurants or maybe even a twilight river cruise? Of course, you can also hire out entire hotel function rooms, but if you’d like something a bit more casual and low key, the city centre is a great place to celebrate, thanks to the multitude of craft beer and brewery pubs that have popped up here over the past few years.
Just outside the main downtown area, we found a couple of interesting places in Northbridge, Leederville and West Perth too. There are some very chic and trendy late-night cocktail bars that will definitely wow your friends, and, with their central location, they’re not going to be difficult to get to.
If you want to head out of the city and celebrate your special announcement somewhere different, check out the city’s beaches, especially City Beach and Scarborough - they’re filled with restaurants and cafes ready to help you celebrate as you watch the sunset on the Pacific Ocean. There’s oodles of choice here for you. If you’re really adventurous, you can even celebrate your engagement with sharks at an aquarium!
If you’re looking to hire the venue by the hour, prices start at $100 per hour. The prices for per person packages range between $36 and $50. If you’re looking for a minimum spend option, they start at $350. Per session prices can range between $425 to $2000. Remember that prices may vary depending on the day, the time of the hire, and the number of people attending. (All data from Tagvenue.)
There are many ways to throw an unforgettable engagement party without spending a fortune on it! Consider a venue with a minimum spend pricing option when organising a party. This will help you keep costs down. Also, check whether the venue has a BYO policy so that you can bring your own alcohol and cut down on costs. You can also look for party packages, which may offer some interesting money-saving deals.
What venue you will choose for your engagement party depends on what you and your partner are looking for. Thankfully, Perth offers many options to choose from, so you will definitely find something to match your event! Firstly, you can take advantage of Perth's beautiful views and hire a waterfront venue. You can also organise a cruise party on a boat. An outdoor or a rooftop venue would be perfect for a summery celebration. If you’re up for a more formal engagement party, you can choose one of the many restaurants in Perth. Hiring a function room will give your celebration some privacy. Perth doesn’t shy away from a good party either, so browse its bars and nightclubs if you’re looking for a more energetic event.
