MORNINGTON PENINSULA ELOPEMENT GUIDE

This beautiful guide lists some of the most amazing, scenic and stunning landscapes for your Elopement in Mornington Peninsula. Eloping is a deeply personal and intimate experience and what could be more exciting than celebrating your dream day at a heavenly paradise like Mornington Peninsula where nature is in its most raw and pristine state. I have had the incredible fortune of photographing amazing couples in this beautiful part of the world over the years and i sincerely recommend it from my heart. Cliffs, beaches, bushland, spectacular rock formations and stunning natural wonders, the list is endless. A few thinks you would like to consider beforehand are

  • Visiting the site in advance and having an adventure filled day just to see if its the right fit for your dream day and does it resonate to your taste and aesthetics.

  • Arranging AIRBNB accomodation in the nearby region will make the getting ready experience all the more special on the morning of your ceremony and it would also be perfect to return to and celebrate in an intimate setting.

  • Research the location online to acquire permits, permissions or any additional paperwork to be done in advance in order to access your dream spot on the elopement day. If its a sacred site then you could choose a nearby location for the ceremony and then return to have your location photos.

  • Check the weather, tide and other site related warnings to pick a time of the year that works best.

1. Cairns Bay

This rocky beach surrounded by stunning cliffs overlooking the Bass Strait Coastline is soon becoming one of the most popular Elopement destination in Victoria. I had the great fortune of photographing the below images in this gorgeously divine location. Very few people are aware of this spot and thus it makes it all the more ideal and personal. There is a good chance that you guys might be the only visitors on the day and have it all to yourself. Words are not enough to express the beauty of this picturesque site, you would need to see it for yourself.
