Looking for a Destination Wedding Australia location? Your search can be easier than you imagine. Before that, let’s check some stats. Approximately 7% of Australian couples get married in Australia but outside their place of residence, and a daring 3% tie the knot overseas. Favourite locations to marry abroad according to statistics include the USA, New Zealand and Fiji.
Those who opt for a destination wedding within Australia are also looking for places with an exotic feel and picturesque backgrounds, such as the Whitsunday Islands. And this brings us to one of the most stunning, and a high potential location for a Destination Wedding Australia. The Whitsundays and Airlie Beach is ranked as one of Australia’s most popular holiday destinations, and a must-see place on most people’s bucket list.
If you choose to organise your Destination Wedding Australia there, Villa Botanica Wedding Venue will be sure to make it to your short list of venues due to the significant advantages it offers to couples: Breathtaking natural beauty
Our venue doesn’t require a lot of decorations as it benefits from amazing backdrops anywhere you go on our grand 5 acre estate. Reasons to organise a wedding outdoors and take advantage of natural settings include:
- Saving money on decorations – better spend it on something else, like superior accommodation for your guests or the wedding dress of your dreams
- Good taste without effort – you can’t go wrong when you let nature provide the background for your event because it never uses the wrong mix of colours or chooses ornaments that don’t match the theme of the event
- Less waste – a wedding that uses nature as decoration is more friendly with the environment and there is less waste produced from ornaments and embellishment.
- Saving time – little or no decorations is one thing less to deal with on your to-do list or argue about with your future spouse
- Perfect photo session background – getting married at home usually implies taking some time for photos, which happens in a park or on the beach. Everybody does it, but it is not that practi cal because it eats up a lot of time and meanwhile your guests have to find a way to entertain themselves. When you get married at Villa Botanica, you have it all in one place, including the most amazing background for your newlyweds photos – and everybody can join without having to travel with you to a photo session location
There’s plenty of stuff to see at Villa Botanica
Couples who opt for a destination wedding often worry they will be busy trying to entertain guests because people spend more time at the wedding location when they travel for the event and they could get bored stuck in a place. If you organise your wedding at Villa Botanica you don’t have to be concerned about that because there is plenty to see and do on our premises. A stay at Villa Botanica can provide plenty of activities and fun to fill a short holiday. Our venue has several different locations, which creates a unique experience for your guests and makes the travel totally worth it. Our strongest assets are the tropical gardens, the sea deck, the cactarium, the secluded stretch of sand of our private beach, and the wedding pavilion.
Plenty of tourist’s attractions nearby
No matter how beautiful our venue and its surroundings are, we will always recommend our guests to visit the rest of the islands and attractions nearby. The Great Barrier Reef is a world heritage-listed destination which is home to thousands of tropical fish, turtles and dolphins and it also represents one of the most popular yachting destinations in the Southern Hemisphere.
