Getting married in Wollongong? Here are some of the highlights you can look forward to:
The prime time for Wollongong weddings is spring followed by autumn, with summer being the busiest time of year for tourism in South Coast NSW. Though the region has generally pleasant weather year-round, June to August can be on the cool side, and many couples who marry in the Illawarra region in winter gravitate towards indoor wedding venues.
What are the popular wedding styles in Wollongong?Wollongong wedding venues range from laidback beachfront restaurants to romantic garden settings to luxury resorts on the beach. Wedding styles in the Illawarra region, therefore, follow similar styling trends like relaxed, Boho wedding themes, elegant secret garden weddings, and glamorous marquee weddings overlooking the sea.
Are there any major events in Wollongong that we should consider when planning our wedding?The most popular Wollongong events both take place in October — Wollongong Triathlon and Yours and Owls Festival — but neither should have a significant impact on your wedding plans. That said, tourism swells in June, January, and September in Wollongong and it’s likely that you and your wedding guests will experience higher guest room rates during those months.
Should we consider any wedding venue locations near Wollongong?Lake Illawarra, Mount Kembla, Kiama, and Shell Cove are all beautiful wedding destinations near Wollongong. If you’re looking for a similar region of coastal cliffs and great wineries, we recommend extending your search to include the Central Coast of NSW or the Port Macquarie region.
