What could be better than having your wedding in Australia’s capital? Canberra is rich in political and cultural history, with plenty to do and see in and around the town. In town you can enjoy Canberra’s long-standing music and film culture, with plenty of art galleries, trendy cafés and live bands to soak up. Canberra was a planned city, designed by American architect, Walter Burley Griffin. Being one of the only few planned cities in the world, it is certainly a distinctive location to host your memorable moments!
If you were after that rustic rural celebration, the city is encircled by stunning native bushland and country landscapes, with wineries, historic townships, stylish restaurants and outdoor fun. Canberra is a region of rich seasonal changes with a pallet of changing colours. Whatever theme you want for your wedding, you can use the seasons to support your choice. Whether it’s a white winter wonder you desire or a fresh, flowery spring setting, Canberra has it all.
Macarthur is a local escape but gets you out of the hustle and bustle of the city. Only a convenient half-hour’s drive from Sydney city, it is a great location for your big day. You can choose from numerous modern venues on offer that have the most contemporary designs and layouts for your special day. If a vintage essence is what your desire, immerse yourself in the many choices of heritage venues and historic buildings, especially on offer in the Camden area. There are cottages, gardens, clubs and homes readily available to cater to you and your guests, with the finest food and delights. The breezy commute will keep wedding planning and organising stress-free to ensure you’re every bit the relaxed bride.
The main areas of the Macarthur region are Campbelltown, Camden and Wollondilly.
