Luna Park opened on 13 December 1912 on the Lower Esplanade at St Kilda, on the Port Phillip foreshore. Mr Moon’s open mouth and the flanking towers make the entrance, restored in 1999. Inside, the Scenic Railway has run since opening day and is the oldest continually operating roller coaster in the world, and the 1913 carousel with its 68 hand-carved horses arrived from Sydney in 1923. The face, towers, railway and carousel are on the Victorian Heritage Register.
Wendy and Peter closed their Melbourne pre-wedding session at Luna Park in April 2018, after Docklands, Gum Gully Farm in the Yarra Valley and Forest Glade Gardens at Mount Macedon. It is a change of pace after gardens: colour, signage and the wooden bones of the Scenic Railway, and a couple can be playful here in a way a formal garden does not invite.
