Melbourne CBD Park

There is nothing quite like the Melbourne City Skyline as a backdrop for a beautiful park ceremony. Who wouldn’t want to have a simple ceremony in a beautiful park just a stone’s throw from the Melbourne CBD and all it offers.

Melbourne knows how to charm its locals and guests with beautiful parks, and this gorgeous ceremony spot takes the cake. Make the most of both with a special ceremony in a quiet park before a short stroll to Federation Square where you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to wining and dining.

Location highlights: How can a park be so pretty and peaceful while being so close to the action you can see the city skyline? Queen Victoria Park spans over 4 hectares and features an enchanting collection of lush lawns, majestic trees and a tranquil ornamental lake, creating an ideal setting for Melbournians or travellers to tie the knot. Just as convenient and affordable as a Melbourne registry wedding but far more beautiful. Your photos will be brilliant whether you stay here or take a short walk into town for some more urban shots; heritage building/ graffiti/ funk.

Local features: Melbourne is jam packed with the country’s best restaurants, cafes and bars, so you certainly will be able to celebrate after your ceremony however you please. The ceremony location is a short walk from Federation Square and the CBD, and all the best accommodation options Melbourne has to offer.

Important things to note: It’s worth checking out if the City of Melbourne has any big events on your chosen date before locking it in. Being close to the city big sporting events and festivals can impact this park to varying degrees.

Accessibility: Suitable for wheelchairs users and people with limited mobility (just let your celebrant know in advance so they set up close to paths).

Other places you might consider: For another great alternative to a Melbourne registry wedding consider our beach location – Brighton, also perfect for elopements and small intimate ceremonies.

Just married weddings made our day easy and stress free. Emailed instructions along the way were easy to follow and kept us updated. We were assigned Lisa Newman as our celebrant and she was amazing. She made the day fun and stress free. A brilliant alternative to more traditional/registry processes. And the Queen Victoria Gardens location was beautiful with a variety of backgrounds for photos.

It was a quick but a very lovely ceremony. Hassle free for us and just right for our budget. Our celebrant Jonelle is so comfortable to be with. The Just Married admin as well is so prompt and provided us with everything we need. They even remind us with the things we need to submit. Thank You so much Just MArried Weddings. You made our wedding just the way we want it. Thank You

Incredible location for small ceremonies. My husband and I had an amazing time at our Sydney Harbour elopement with a small group of family. Jonelle was excellent and our ceremony ran smoothly. I highly recommend if you are wanting a smaller wedding.

We were married on South Perth foreshore, a really beautiful intimate ceremony. Our celebrant Brooke was really lovely and accommodating to our style of wedding. Overall the booking, paperwork and ceremony process was easy and no stress. I'm so glad we opted for South Perth foreshore vs Perth registry office.

I booked with them then cancelled because of lack of pretty and accessible location options and lost $100. Your admin and customer service was ok but very dissapointed with your locations as they are very limited and underwhelming. The photos you have on social media aren't of the exact ceremony location because you use photos from other areas that have been photographed that are away from the ceremony location. Why is one location (Hunter Valley) literally a rest area for drivers and truckers? Surely there are better options. A rest area is hardly a desirable location. Also when I browsed a beach location it looked very secluded on your social media but its not at all.
