5 Unique Dandenong Ranges Elopement Locations
In Victoria, Australia, the Dandenong Ranges are renowned for their gorgeous vistas and breathtaking natural beauty, making them the perfect location for an elopement wedding. Here are five breathtaking places in the Dandenong Ranges which we believe are perfect for an intimate elopement wedding:
Alfred Nicholas Gardens
This idyllic location for an elopement wedding is surrounded by beautiful gardens and serene lakes. A romantic setting ideal for exchanging vows is created by the gorgeous lake, lovely grass, and tall trees.
SkyHigh Mount Dandenong
is perched on top of the Dandenong Ranges and provides amazing panoramas over Melbourne and the surrounding area. It's a fantastic option for a special elopement wedding with its breathtaking landscapes, beautiful gardens, and sophisticated reception settings.
The William Ricketts Sanctuary
is a distinctive and alluring setting that houses an outdoor exhibition of sculptures tucked away in the surrounding landscape. The chapel has a serene, spiritual atmosphere that makes it the perfect location for a small, private elopement ceremony.
