Strathvea Guesthouse Wedding Photos
A Yarra Valley garden wedding with an alfresco reception
Strathvea Guesthouse is on Myers Creek Road near Healesville in the Yarra Valley. Local history records its early twentieth-century guesthouse origins, and the planning scheme includes the property in a heritage overlay. Its gardens and guesthouse setting give this collection a different character from the region's vineyard weddings.
Sarah and Jye's Strathvea wedding began with a garden ceremony and continued with an outdoor reception. Their country wedding portraits included rustic buildings, a horse and a pony. Back in the garden, guests sat at long tables for speeches and danced beneath festoon lights as evening turned to night.
Photographing a wedding at Strathvea Guesthouse
Garden wedding photography here can include the white verandah, tree ferns and outdoor reception setting. Check shade at the actual ceremony time and allow for changes in light between the garden and open portrait locations. Plan for wet weather as well as changing light. Historical photos do not establish the current rooms or packages on offer.
