Our wedding ceremony will be taking place on Sunday the 20th of September 2026 in Avondale (a 20 min drive from Wollongong).
Wollongong is part of the NSW South Coast - a region that is simply beautiful and we both love.
We understand that Wollongong is a long way for many of our guests to travel. Our wedding program has been designed for guests to opt into the celebration events they wish to attend.
If you are attending all our celebration events, you will need to organise accommodation. The majority of guests will be staying at Novotel in Wollongong, which is close to where all events will take place.
Whether you are staying for the whole weekend or just coming to our wedding ceremony, we can’t wait for you to join us in our wedding celebrations!
