WHAT WE LOVED ABOUT THE VENUE…
We wanted something unique and fun in one location for the convenience of our guests.
I actually work for Village Roadshow Theme Parks, so I knew first-hand that Movie World would be the ultimate fairytale venue for a very memorable wedding.

THE VENUE LOOKED AMAZING WHEN…
The magical fairy lights illuminated Main Street. Stars Pavilion also looked spectacular, especially when it was styled for our reception.

THE FOOD WAS…
Delicious, and having a buffet meant there was plenty of variety. Service was impeccable and our guests were all treated like VIPs.

DECORATING TIPS?
You can’t go wrong with classic elegance, particularly in that venue. High centrepieces, neutral tones and a little glitz made it really spectacular.

ON THE DAY…
The staff made us feel very special. Little things like having our names written on the showtimes in front of the theatre were definitely a highlight.

THREE WORDS ABOUT THE VENUE?
Memorable, unique, fun.

WHAT OFF-SITE ACCOMMODATION WAS CLOSE BY?
We stayed at Sea World Resort. It was modern and spacious enough for our entire bridal party, which was ideal when getting ready on the day.
