Greenfields Albert Park Wedding Photos

Greenfields Albert Park is a lakeside venue at the corner of Lakeside Drive and Queens Road in Albert Park, about three kilometres from the Melbourne CBD, set between Albert Park Lake and the Albert Park Golf Course. Ceremonies run on the outdoor Sunset Deck over the golf course or in the indoor Sunlounge with its mosaic tiling, and the main room has floor-to-ceiling windows, a large dance floor and a bar, seating 160 with room to dance or 500 for a cocktail reception.
Liana and Matt held both ceremony and reception at Greenfields and had their portraits at Albert Park Lake, a few steps from the door. That is the practical case for the venue: water, city skyline and open lawn within walking distance, then a light-filled room to come back to, so no bus and no lost hour in traffic. The gallery is 79 images.

The Sunset Deck is named for a reason: a late-afternoon ceremony there has the sun dropping behind the golf course and a warm sky over the vows. For portraits, the lake path gives the skyline across the water, best in the last half hour of light, and the palms along the shore add height. Inside, the big windows keep the room bright until dusk, then the bar lighting takes over. Wet weather moves the ceremony to the Sunlounge. The gallery above is Liana and Matt’s wedding.
