When you think of beautiful places for ceremonies, you would have to include the Dandenongs, wouldn’t you? I myself was married in the Dandenongs many years ago and I’m here to tell you it hasn’t changed a bit!
For pure, rustic charm, I recommend you have a look at Gum Gully Farm – gumgully.com.au:
This chapel is adorable, but these two pictures truly do not do the place justice! You must look at their website and see the beautiful photos, including, animal lovers, the bride and bridegroom with deer! Now that would make a unique addition to your wedding album! So many lovely places to hold the ceremony. Speak to the wonderful Colin or Sue, who are just so easy and friendly.
If your tastes swing more towards old English, you must visit Marybrooke Manor – marybrooke.com.au:
You will truly feel like you’ve stepped into Elizabethan days in Ye Olde England! The gardens are immaculate, the dining areas stunning and they have accommodation for the bride, groom and anyone else wishing to stay the night! Convenient for those elderly relatives! The General Manager, Lisa Thomas is very helpful. What a place to work!
Start shortlisting your fav spots and have a day or two of purely travelling around Victoria. I’m sure good, warm weather is just around the corner – why not have a picnic as well? Enjoy your search!





Two contrasting authentic reception venues with very friendly people running them. Our Dandenongs offer so much choice and its all on our door step, how lucky are we?
