Best Byron Bay Wedding Photo Locations
June 7th, 2010 by adminByron Bay is one of the most visited and most beautiful beach towns that can be found in the far north corner of New South Wales, Australia. The weather is phenomenal, ranging from 19 or 20 degrees in winter up to 27 or 28 degrees in summer. The sandy-white beaches, the views overlooking the beach, and the fact that there isn’t ever a bad month here for weddings, make Byron Bay one of the best places to take wedding photos. Taking photos at Byron Bay make a photographer’s job easy because there is a lot of amazing scenery to place behind a person. This list will give you a great bunch of venues and surrounding areas that your wedding photos can be taken.
1. Lyndoch on the Lake – This venue is a very charming bed and breakfast that has a very French atmosphere with its suites, park-like grounds and their large dining rooms. The venue includes plenty of statues, French furnishings and courtyards-perfect for the romantic getaway that still is only minutes from the beach, the river, waterfalls and more.
2. Tallow Beach – Tallow Beach is an exquisite, sheltered and tucked away beach that holds a lot of maritime history. This beach is great for wedding photos because the water and the area are very colorful. The water can be many shades of blue while the beach isn’t ever too crowded, and there are also nearby beachfront accommodations. As it isn’t a B&B, it makes a great backdrop. Try catching it at sunset too-the yellow, orange and pink sky behind a newly wedded couple can make quite a stunning photo.
3. Ballina Beach Resort – Ballina Beach Resort is located right on the beach giving couples the perfect romantic scene; with palm trees, a lighthouse beach opposite of the resort and of course the beach itself. The resort provides different catering and lodging stays while being set right in the middle of 3 acres of subtropical gardens. For the big day, you can get great photos right from inside the room (perfect for the wedding day’s prep photos) and outside.
4. Summer Hills – tucked away in misty mountain lies this enchanting resort. This resort lies right between the mountains and the sea, and is only minutes away from Byron Bay Beaches. Summer Hills is the perfect place to go if you’re looking for a secluded but close relaxing stay. The resort offers intimate ceremonies with an abundance of flowers and gardens, with receptions to fit various sizes. Get captivated with a serene escape with gorgeous photos matching the bride and groom.
Australian beaches in general are mostly ocean beaches. Be sure to check the temperature and the rate of the winds to schedule your wedding date as best as possible. Every beach in Australia is breathtaking, but try to avoid the heavy winds to make for an easier day. Most resorts and beaches that you can find along Byron Bay will not be likely to upset you. With your friends and family nearby and of course your husband or wife, there isn’t much more you could ask for.
