About

Overview & Vibe

The Shorehouse floats over Swanbourne Beach on 1,900 square metres of coastal Hamptons ease — whitewashed timber, bentwood chairs and the Indian Ocean filling every window. Only a handful of weddings run here each year, which is exactly the point.

Setting & Style

Receptions take the oceanfront deck or the light-drenched dining room — long tables under suspended garden installations, golden hour pouring through the louvres as the surf rolls below. Sit-down and cocktail formats both run through the venue’s events team, who pair couples with the best local suppliers for a genuinely world-class event. Note: the venue hosts receptions only, not ceremonies — the beach below is a natural ceremony spot before walking up.

Ideal For

Couples wanting an exclusive, restaurant-quality beachside reception — relaxed coastal luxury over formality.

The Need-to-Knows

  • Just a handful of exclusive, upscale wedding receptions hosted each year — dates are scarce.
  • Sit-down and cocktail reception styles across the oceanfront deck and indoor dining room.
  • Ceremonies are not hosted at the venue; receptions only.
  • 278 Marine Parade, Swanbourne — between Cottesloe and City Beach on the coast road.

Standout Feature

Sunset over Swanbourne Beach through floor-to-ceiling glass — a reception room that feels like it’s standing in the ocean.
