Your Guide to Hiring Outdoor Wedding Venues in Melbourne
Outdoor weddings can be a romantic and magical experience, however, like any wedding they also come hand in hand with some potential problems. When organising a ceremony and reception outdoor there are some aspects you should bear in mind. First, be ready for the weather, if it is hot, make sure your guests can find shade and stay hydrated. Conversely, if it is wet and rainy, make sure you have an alternative venue in mind. Also,be mindful of any wind - gale force winds and tulle does not make a winning combination. Finally, when considering catering, make sure you provide enough soft drinks to keep your guests hydrated, and that the food will not turn if it is left outdoors.
Exploring Melbourne and its suburbs will take you to some of its most beautiful outdoor areas. In South Yarra, enjoy fantastic nature and awesome garden wedding venues in the Royal Botanical Gardens, or head by the waterside at Albert Lake and Brighton Beach, where you’ll find beautiful decks and terraces. Journey further into the city’s Eastern Suburbs and you’ll find spectacular countryside and wooded spaces in the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges, such as country houses and lodges. Here you can enjoy the area’s beautiful nature and tranquility alongside a wedding ceremony tailored to your exact needs and reflecting the natural calm of the area.

The city offers a wide variety of different outdoor venues to choose from such as gardens and even sky bars.

How do I plan an outdoor wedding in Melbourne?
Planning an outdoor wedding is not too different from planning a normal indoor wedding. It is always best to rely upon the experience and assistance of wedding planners and venue staff, who will help make sure the process goes smoothly.
