Is there a dress code?

Wedding vibes are the go. Flatter heels will be better for the lawn ceremony and glasshouse dancing

Will there be transportation provided?

We’ve purposely chosen a city wedding so it’s easy for all guests - close to the airport, central city, transport. You can easily Uber or taxi to and from accommodation and the venue. There is parking at the Gardens for those who need it.

Are children allowed to come?

Sadly, with numbers, we can't accommodate children. However, if your little one needs to be with you, just let us know.

Is there a day after 'do'?

Yes! See link above. Join us at the legendary Mt Victoria Bowls Club! Enjoy a relaxed recovery lunch on the bowling green from 11:30-3:30, Saturday 10th for cold beers, classic BBQ, and bowls. Kids are welcome!

(We are still planning to go to The Ram afterwards for those still pushing on!)
