More on Weddings in Perth
Home to the Swan Valley and bordered by the Indian Ocean (on the west) and Darling Escarpment (to the east), Perth, Western Australia, has so many picturesque wedding ceremony and reception venues to offer that can suit every bride and groom’s tastes. The area’s venues are especially great for those couples looking for something a little rustic, as the valley has many gorgeous wineries, but the beautiful weather (particularly in the summer months) and many cultural attractions (such as the Art Gallery of Western Australia) are also sure to impress you and your wedding guests!
Popular Perth Wedding Venues & Prices
Perth wedding venues cost a little less,on average, than the average in Australia; you can expect to pay around $11,000 – $13,000 for your wedding venue (for “all-inclusive” packages), but there are also many venues that are suitable for brides and grooms on a budget or those looking for something a little fancier.
Of course, Perth, Western Australia, is known for its many beautiful wineries, and as a result there are a plethora of gorgeous winery wedding venues to choose from for your wedding ceremony and/or reception. There are also many other types of wedding venues, including private estates / homes, restaurants, resorts, parks, gardens, and waterfront locations. Some of our personal favourite wedding venues in the region include the Caversham House in Swan Valley and the Sittella Winery and Restaurant (also in the Swan Valley).
Travel & Hotel Accommodations
The Perth Airport offers both international and domestic flights, making it easy for your out-of-state and international wedding guests to attend your festivities. Also, it’s only located about 20 minutes away by car from the city centre, so most wedding venues and hotels / other accommodations are a short drive away from the airport. Those guests who are unable to rent a car or cannot arrange for someone to pick them up can opt for taxis, rideshare, or public transport via Transperth bus services.
Within the city, hotels can range anywhere from $40 to $250+ per night, and there are also several hotels by the Perth Airport, from $80 – $150 per night. There are also many Airbnb rooms and homes in the area, with the most popular rooms starting from $30 per night, so there are many affordable options!
Weather and Climate Considerations
The ideal wedding season in Perth, Western Australia is during the summer months (December to February), as they are warm and experience very little rainfall (on average one day per month). Perth is warm year-round, with a low of 10oC in the winter months. However, the late Fall and winter months should be avoided as they experience quite a bit of precipitation (June and July have approximately 14 days out of the month with rain). However, even if you are planning an outdoor summer wedding, we still suggest arranging a back-up location or space for your reception or ceremony, just in case there is any inclement weather.
