OVERVIEW

Karrawingi Park, a hidden gem right in the heart of the beautiful Mornington Peninsula is seven and a half acres of picturesque parkland. No matter what your ‘perfect wedding' looks like, let our private park be your blank canvas. The serene grounds offer a pleasing mix of both formal and informal settings for wedding ceremonies, photos and receptions.

 A description widely used by visitors is tranquil. Wander through the park or enjoy a cool drink under the shade offered by the many mature trees in the lead up to your ceremony, take gorgeous photos, and stay back to mingle with your guests after you’ve said ‘I do’.

The park is made up of an array of natural elements, from the wide open spaces & rolling lawns, to the abundance of mature trees and glorious willows weeping overone of numerous small lakes. Your guests are encouraged to explore the groundsand experience the relaxed ambience that consumes them. Other features include the Honeymoon Shack, Pier, and Gazebo which were all handcrafted by co-establisher Doug. The wide choice of setting you have from which to choose truly has be seen to appreciate.

 

CEREMONIES: Choose from one of many formal and informal settings within the park for your ceremony. In front of the weeping willow trees, or under the gazebo overlooking the lagoon to name a couple. Organise a viewing to see the extensive array of natural backdrops, and choose the perfect location for your perfect day.

PHOTOGRAPHS: Make tangible memories and have your photographs taken at Karrawingi Park. Utilize the natural and hand-crafted features of the grounds, or bring your own props to savor the day. 

RECEPTIONS: We provide the use of the venue for a self or third party catered marquee, tipi or open-air style function on a well-grassed area that is spacious, picturesque and flat. Karrawingi Park is your blank canvas to throw the most epic celebration your friends and family will remember for years to come. Any reasonable request will be fulfilled where possible.

 

Highlights of Karrawingi Park:

  • Extensive array of natural and handcrafted features and settings.
  • Relaxed ambience that organically consumes the grounds.
  • Wide open spaces and rolling lawns - your blank canvas.
  • All requests will be filled where possible, but we'd like to hear your wild ones too!
  • Happy to host just the wedding photoshoot.

These are but a few of the features Karrawingi Park has to offer. Inspection is invited free of obligation and can be arranged at any time by phone or email. Your hosts, Steve and Vicki Clay encourage you to see the park, only then will you truly be able to appreciate all that it has to offer and experience the magic for yourself.

“Aileen & Doug were fantastic! Had everything set up beautifully & added extra touches to make the set up as special as possible. Grounds looked amazing & beautifully kept. Very accomodating with additional requests we had. Very glad we held our ceremony at this venue, they helped make our ceremony so memorable.” Kerryn W

About

Until 1993, apart from the larger trees, little of the present garden existed. After ceasing to run the property as a commercial orchard in 1990 and selling all but 7.5 acres of the original 60 acres, Aileen & Doug realised that they now had time for a previously impossible pastime. So the garden began to evolve. Steve has now taken over the reigns to continue the legacy his parents established over more than 25 years.

Very helpful and kind hosts. A stunning backdrop for a wedding at the best price in the area. I only wish the rain held off. The owners made a beautiful back up indoors for us.

Karrawingi Park is a hidden gem. A beautiful outdoor venue. It was the first venue we looked at for our wedding and needed to look no further. Many great locations to hold a ceremony and reception. Steve and his parents were very friendly, helpful and accommodating throughout the whole process. You could not ask for more from a venue. Definitely take a tour here before deciding!
