Hosting a wedding in Mornington Peninsula is a fantastic idea. Between the hypnotising sounds of the sea to the rolling hills brimming with greenery, the region offers a haven for those looking to jump the broom.
Before deciding who's going to sit at which tables, which company will cater the event, you need to figure out where the big day's taking place. Luckily for you, Mornington Peninsula is rife with accommodations suited for a memorable wedding.
But which resort is right for your guest? Let's go through the characteristics of an ideal location.
An open-aired ceremony
If you don't plan on having the actual ceremony in a chapel, you may want to consider hosting your wedding on a well-groomed terrace or garden.
Picture a late-afternoon or evening wedding, the guests facing the west. The rays of a burning sun shine between you and your partner, giving your silhouettes an orange radiance that seems to emanate from your souls.
Sounds like a scene from a movie, doesn't it? There's something very romantic about an open-aired ceremony, as if nature is giving you its blessing.
A vibrant reception area
Although your guests ultimately came to see you and your partner get hitched, they're doubtlessly looking forward to an exciting reception brimming with life.
Prioritise comfort when choosing a reception room. If you're expecting to accommodate 100 guests, don't try to pack them into a room that fits 90.
As far as reception locations are concerned, Peppers Moonah Links provides more than a few reception areas. The Marquee, for example, faces the west and is surrounded by natural vegetation, offering a unique atmosphere that can cater to 150 or 200 people with an extension.
An intimate place for the two of you
After the reception winds down, you and your new spouse are going to want some time alone. You've taken a big step in life and you intend to make the rest of the journey hand in hand – congratulations.
When considering rooms, you're going to want something spacious with the right accoutrements​ to complete your night. Look for accommodations in Mornington Peninsula that provide an open atmosphere without sacrificing privacy. A king-sized bed and jacuzzi certainly wouldn't be bad, but they're not necessities.
Above all, make sure you have everything you need to make the experience enjoyable. If possible, work with a resort that is willing to assist you during the planning process – it certainly makes everything a lot easier.
