Why get married in Tasmania?

We might be a little biased, but Tasmania really is one of the most beautiful destinations in Australia to choose for your wedding or elopement. 

Whether you’re a couple who live interstate with your sights set on this gorgeous island as a destination, or if you call Tasmania home - there really is something for everyone here. From dramatic coastlines to rugged mountains, Arcadian farmlands to historic chateaus, and picturesque villas to enchanting vineyards.

There is no shortage of stunning scenery here, you’ll escape the hustle-and-bustle of mainland city life and enjoy the finest gourmet experiences imaginable. Some of Australia’s finest whiskies, craft beers and ciders, cool-climate wines and artisanal cheeses are at your fingertips.

One of the most common things we hear from visitors is that Tasmania feels more like Europe than mainland Australia; so it’s really no surprise why it has been called the Switzerland of the South for nearly a century.

Unique wedding venues are in abundance here, and we certainly wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to extend your visit to include your honeymoon! Stay a while and tour our many vineyards and historic townships, majestic Kunanyi (Mt Wellington), the ever-eccentric and provocative MONA or take a trip out to Cradle Mountain and Lake St Clair - the list is (almost) endless. 

If you’re after a unique and soulful destination to tie the knot, our little corner of Australia might be the place for you - and if you need assistance planning it, get in touch! We also love to travel so get in touch if you have your sights set on an interstate or overseas wedding. We’d love to hear from you.
