More on Weddings in the Blue Mountains

As the name would suggest, the Blue Mountains region in New South Wales is most known for its beautiful mountain range. It borders Sydney and surrounding cities, and its lowest ranges are located approximately 50km away from Sydney. In the upper mountains, you will find a lot of eucalyptus, and there are small rainforests in the gorges of the ranges. The lower areas of the mountains offer a temperate climate that is great for outdoor wedding ceremonies and receptions, which can take advantage of the gorgeous surrounds and views.

 

Popular Blue Mountains Wedding Venues & Prices

Most of the venues in this region take the form of estates and resorts, but there is also the lovely Botanic Garden and National Parks in the area. Additionally, there are numerous golf clubs, gardens, hotels, spas, and restaurants available for your wedding ceremony and reception.

A wedding venue in the Blue Mountain region of New South Wales will cost anywhere between $65 – $210 per head, but that may or may not include venue hire fees, taxes, gratuities, catering fees, and more. Contact the venues (listed in the article above)  you are interested in for a full breakdown of their packages, the cost, and what they include

 

Travel & Hotel Accommodations

There are several airports near the Blue Mountains area in New South Wales, with the closest being Katoomba airport, a 70 minute drive away. However, we recommend having family and friends fly into the Sydney Airport and catching a connecting flight to Katoomba or driving (which will take them approximately 2.5 hours).

Since the Blue Mountains region is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Australia, hotels in the area can be fairly expensive, ranging from $90 – $200 on average, although there are much more luxurious (and costly) options as well, such as the Spicers Sangoma Retreat (about $850 per night). There are also great Airbnb options that are available in the area as well, which will cost your guests upwards of $60 per night. When you are booking blocks at hotels, don’t forget to ask for a preferential rate for your guests!

 

Weather and Climate Considerations

Typically, most people wish to be married in the warmer seasons of spring and summer. For those of you who are looking for spring or summer weddings, look for dates in December to March, with a high of 26 oC in January and a low of 11 oC in December. The colder months that you may wish to avoid are May to September (the coldest month is July, but it doesn’t usually dip below 0 oC).

Of course, the higher in altitude you go, the cooler it will get. The Upper Blue Mountain area is on average 10 degrees cooler than the Lower Blue Mountain area.

In terms of precipitation, there is a fairly equal amount of rain throughout all the months of the year in the Blue Mountain region. There is an average of 6 – 8 days of precipitation each month, so you should make sure to ask your wedding ceremony and reception venues for a plan b / inclement weather option in case of rain!
