MELBOURNE CITY
Our favourite city in the world, Melbourne is packed with incredible food, coffee, bars, galleries and shopping, with so many neighbourhoods worth exploring. It’s effortlessly cool, walkable, and the perfect place to base yourself before and after the wedding.
MORNINGTON PENINSULAR
Melbourne’s coastal playground, the Mornington Peninsula is all beaches, cellar doors, long lunches and hot springs, with a few seriously beautiful (and boujee) towns along the way. It’s extra special to us, we spent some of our very first week together in Sorrento and got engaged at Jackalope.

HEALESVILLE & THE YARRA VALLEY
Just over an hour from Melbourne, the Yarra Valley is Victoria’s iconic wine region, best known for Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and sparkling. Think rolling vineyards, stunning cellar doors, long lunches, and the perfect day trip (or overnight) escape.
