We’ve sussed out the newest outdoor wedding trends for summertime in Melbourne, and they are out-of-the-box awesome! So, hop in our wedmobile and grab your notebooks: here are our top 4 outdoor wedding trends for 2022!

Are you the kind of laid-back couple who dream of tying the knot under a canopy of dried blooms: on the beachfront barefoot, with the sun warming your face, and the waves of the ocean crashing behind you? Then a Boho beach wedding may just your kind of vibe! In fact, why not follow up your ceremony by having a fuss-free reception at a local beachfront venue in Melbourne? Whether at Elwood Bathers, West Beach Pavilion in St. Kilda or at the Sandbar in Middle Park, plan your vibey beachside production with a live wedding dj and slick audio-visual team to make sure your day runs smoothly. With the bohemian sounds of Bossa Nova jetting through the speakers, and the warm summer breezes coming off the waterfront, may you waltz well into the night, underneath the brightest of stars.

Keen for a perfect low-key micro-wedding festivity? Why not say ‘I Do’, at a wine-lovers picnic paradise: set against a backdrop of rolling hills and lavish vineyards? Have a major chill-out starting with your ceremony on the lawn, underneath a canopy of vines, followed by an intimate feast of lazing and grazing with the folk tunes of a live strumming musician and great audio-visual team. After the sun goes down, celebrate on by laying by the hilltop view, while the gentle beats of an uber-cool wedding DJ finish off your evening– with a magical setting for you and your guests.

Did we hear you say, glamping? Fancy foregoing the fancy indoor venue, to create an outdoor covid-safe festival vibe- a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle filled with techno sound and lighting, and featuring state-of-the-art pyrotechnics like fireworks and a wedding DJ playing house music? Hire an event company to provide you with a glamorous and stress-free outdoor glamping experience, with readily crafted wedding day tent hire packages to suit any wedding style. Whether you’re a boho, eclectic, or festive kind of couple, you can hire a slew of ethically made bell tents, eco-friendly yurts, and open-air marquees, plus some glamping accommodation to making your festive wedding one to remember!

Fancy a tranquil micro-wedding, where you can envelope yourself in the serenity of nature, while immersing yourselves in the beauty of the environment? Planning an eco-retreat wedding may be just the idea for you! Why not choose Qii House in Lorne, for your ultimate eco-destination? Located in the centre of Great Otway National Park, this remote treetop location lies high above an abundant rainforest, making you both feel reconnected to Mother Earth. Wake up breathing in the fresh mountain air. Exchange vows by the sounds of nearby waterfalls and take a rainforest walk amongst the trickling rock pools and stunning flora. Celebrate your reception by eating organic food at the garden tea house with state-of-the-art sound and lighting at your disposal for carefree speeches, followed by a massive chill-out lasting well into the night – to the cool sounds of a mobile wedding dj on the elevated rooftop deck of your Feng Shui-designed lodge: surrounding yourself in nature’s tranquil rhythms.
