Encore St Kilda Beach is a reception venue inside the St Kilda Sea Baths on Jacka Boulevard, right on the sand at St Kilda Beach. The rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows onto Port Phillip Bay, an outdoor terrace over the beach, a built-in dance floor and operable walls, so the space scales from about 50 guests to 400 seated. Ceremonies happen indoors, or on the rooftop between October and April with the bay behind the couple, and there are two bridal suites on site.
We have photographed and filmed weddings at Encore since 2018. The day usually runs entirely along the foreshore: ceremony on the roof or the sand, portraits on the beach and the St Kilda Pier, drinks at the neighbouring bars while the room is turned, then the reception with the sunset in the windows. It is one of the few Melbourne venues where the couple session needs no car at all.
For Emmett and Karmen it was the ceremony and reception venue; the day also took in The Hamptons Apartments in St Kilda and St Kilda Botanical Gardens in St Kilda.
