Albury / Wodonga, New South Wales

Straddling the Murray River on the NSW-Victoria border, Albury-Wodonga offers riverside parklands, heritage architecture and easy access to nearby wine country at Rutherglen and the alpine foothills. Ceremonies happen in botanic gardens, on Murray riverbanks and at vineyard estates just over the border.

The twin cities are a natural meeting point for families from Melbourne, Canberra and regional NSW, with venues from grand art-deco function rooms to rustic wool sheds. River red gums, golden light and border wine make for a relaxed, generous celebration.
