Can we get married on the beach along the Great Ocean Road?

Yes! Many couples choose beach weddings at locations like Bells Beach, Lorne, or Aireys Inlet, but you’ll need a council permit (Surf Coast Shire or Colac Otway Shire). I can help guide you through the process.

What’s the best time of year for a Surf Coast wedding?

Spring and autumn offer mild temperatures and stunning scenery—perfect for outdoor weddings. Summer is also popular, but it can get windy along the coast, so a backup plan is always a good idea. I love a winter wedding along the coast, it can make for the most dramatic and romantic photo’s!

A standard ceremony takes 20–30 minutes, but I can tailor it to be shorter or longer to match your dream wedding vibe.

Do we need a wet-weather plan for Great Ocean Road weddings?

Yes! Coastal weather can be unpredictable. Many outdoor venues have an indoor or marquee option just in case, and I always recommend choosing a backup spot nearby.
