This can be convenient for couples and guests because it eliminates the need for transportation between venues. Places like Overnewton Castle offer beautiful spaces for both parts of your celebration. If this is an option you\u2019re interested in, ask about the venue\u2019s wet weather contingency plans and how they manage the transition between ceremony and reception setups.<br \/>\n[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;What should I consider when choosing an outdoor wedding venue in Melbourne?&#8221;]Melbourne\u2019s weather can be unpredictable, so when choosing an outdoor venue, it\u2019s important to have a solid backup plan.
